Robots: In Our
Image
['Temporary office' located at 21 Grand
416 25th St.]
a presentation by Eliot K Daughtry, Executive
Director
a performance by killer banshee
Most of the world's robots are
industrial, but most of the ones we imagine look like humans.
Why do we think about one and use another? How can a robot
be a human and also be an artificial intelligence? Why are
we comfortable with some robots, but find others creepy? Why
are more robots male than female? This presentation will discuss
major areas of the Robot Taxonomy Project, an ongoing effort
to classify all types of robots and why humans create them.
Part of a solo art exhibition of new work at 21
Grand
Art installation
is open thru Dec 6.

Eliot K Daughtry, Executive Director
Continuing its mission to identify, classify, document
and promote better understanding of robot types and their
relationship to human forms, the Robot Identification Institute
will be open to the public for the month of November. The
temporary office will be located at 21 Grand, an interdisciplinary
art space located in Oakland California. The office will take
reports, provide alerts about unusual robot activity, and
expand the Robot Taxonomy.
The RII will debut
new bas-relief works as an upgrade to our space! These carved
panels represent different robots taken from the classes of
the taxonomy.

June/July mini
Tour was a great success!
killer banshee creates challenging
audiovisual art, with a focus on live, projected video works.
Intersecting cultural politics, technology and art, they combine
material from personal and public archives, forging meanings from
the
examination of gesture, time, and place. killer banshee frequently
collaborates with other artists. This tour attempts to offset the
cost
of 7 visits in 2 years for extensive medical care at The Chiari
Institute, NY.
We'll be performing several current
works including Mobility, Politics of Fear & Emergency
Gender System.
