Designer and programmer of Yusi Liu has created a robotic box with treads, who knows how to write poems in the sand. Slowly moving along the water’s edge, it is sure to please one beloved couple his writings.
The robot was created for his thesis in computer science, when Yusi Liu studied at the University of Edinburgh. Nice cube riding around, collecting information about wind speed and considering the many other external factors, and then based on the data writes in the sand something poetic and beautiful. He is assisted in this program of artificial intelligence and an extensive vocabulary, which the robot is happy to use.
The robot likes to watch the sea, listen to the sound of waves rolling on the shore and crashing on the rocks. Enjoy the singing birds, the playing children, sports and the wind in their hair. Society of people the robot prefers solitude — so it is better I think, because he can feel the beauty of nature and create in the sand next poetic masterpiece, and then melancholy to observe how written words ruthlessly washed away by a wave.
Designer Liu intends to develop the idea of creating a series of works under the title “me the machine”. The aim of the series is to explore sociability, the meaning and morality of the machines.
