This is a project about labour and barter economy. Small robotic vehicles trade their manpower for food. The vehicles can draw and whistle the popular songs “Happy Birthday” and “The Internationale”. People can borrow one of the vehicles and let them work for them. After completing the assignment the vehicles have to be returned or given over to somebody else who needs their skills.more

Test arrangements in an Electro-Biotope
lab30, Augsburg’s Media Arts Festival, is going to take place this year for the 8th time.
