Short description
For the robot, there is simultaneity between its own spatial localisation and the map it produces. But what happens if we force it to follow human wanderings? This project highlights a gap: the mapping performed by the robot versus the appropriation of the same space by a visitor. This takes place in the production spaces of the artist-run center.
