Bring Back The Logitech

An interactive video installation created with Joeri Woudstra that examines the relationship between media technologies and social interaction. Technology is no longer a machine which can take over one single action; it has become an extension of our personality. The fantasy of technology having a mind of its own and its own willpower has rapidly become a reality. Emotional technology is the new stage in our eternal search for artificial intelligence. This installation gives shape to a playful imitation of life by technology and its desire for emotional interaction in which the viewer can participate and interfere. In a world where we seem to want to be taken over by machines, this installation offers the spectator a chance to place themselves in the middle of an artificial dialogue, to take a moment and think back of much simpler times.
