Robots that mimic human movement and attempt to capture photos of people and make them accessible online.

David Rokeby

Quaver
This is a video installation in which letters float around in a video and when the viewer makes sounds into a microphone, the direction the letters are headed in changes.
Plot Against Time
The first iteration of this piece tracks the movements of pigeons and people in the Piazza San Marco in Venice. The moving beings create a trail in a gold shade and the history behind each being is visually shown. Each following iteration is a similar idea in different locations and with different beings.

Liu Dao Art Collective
This is a Chinese art collective based in Shanghai that produces work that "contemplates the future of Asia, engages sights and scenes from old and new China, and elevates the skills of new talents by working from a communal forum." The work they produce is often interactive and representative of modern society. They implement humor and invoke emotive experiences with their pieces.
