Visited: Null Object @ WORK Gallery


"NULL OBJECT links a computer-brain interface with industrial manufacturing technology to produce sculpture – a collaboration between London Fieldworks (Bruce Gilchrist and Jo Joelson), Harvard medical roboticist and haptics researcher , Yaroslav Tenzer and software designer, Jonny Bradley. 

Using bespoke software, London Fieldworks have produced 3D shape information from EEG recordings of artist Gustav Metzger as he attempted to think about nothing. This data was translated into instructions for a manufacturing robot, which carved out the shapes from the interior of a block of Portland stone to create a void space."
