Robots que pintan >> El arte en la edad del silicio

La experimentación en este campo tiene raíces muy lejanas: desde los autómatas del siglo XVIII hasta toda clase de criaturas, basadas en características biológicas, que le permiten actuar como los seres vivos, adaptándose al entorno y respondiendo a los impulsos exteriores con actitudes que no han sido previamente programadas.

It's electric! Ars Electronica kicks off

"I saw him at rehearsal," he continued, referring to the orchestra's conductor and director Ian Charnas. "He was amazing. It's the blitz, it plays the music. " Electricity was in the air as we waited for Charnas to appear, tantalised by two Tesla coils, exuding potential from atop a cement grandstand that forms part of the Ars Electronica Centre. Suddenly, a figure came into view between the coils. In the performance Tesla coils generate a massive voltage, creating lightning directed by a pre-composed musical score. A similar set-up to the "fighting wizards" that are the Lords of Lightning, in the case of the Tesla Orchestra the lightning is controlled by the music. It's such fun that the orchestra decided to share the joy.

David Hockney's instant iPad art

Picasso or Van Gogh would have snapped one up," the artist David Hockney tells me at the opening of his latest show in Paris called Fleurs Fraiches, or Fresh Flowers. The boyish grand old man of pop art with silver hair and lambent eyes is well known for his recent conversion to the iPhone and iPad for his work. Now, several of the tablet computers have been turned into technological canvases to display his latest work at an exhibition Hockney, dressed in a bespoke suit made with pockets large enough to fit an iPad, seems most amused by it all.
