Public Lecture III Mechatronic Art & its Cultural Implications

Mechatronics, a portmanteau of 'Mechanics' and 'Electronics', is a platform investigates the possibilities of mechanical-based, tactile and space-related technologies on artistic and cultural practice. It includes robotics art and movable/ mobile sculpture, video/ sound sculpture, etc. Artists started to work with the chosen abstraction from 13th Century in western history and it was deployed in theater performance, sculpture & installation art since then. Leonardo De Vinci and Karel Čapek are two of the most well-known figures.

Annie On Ni Wan, currently a visiting research scholar at Academy of Visual Arts, Hong Kong Baptist University, will discuss theoretical background and development in mechatronic art and various art projects as a series of poetic systems, engage in lines of enquiry that result in shared sensations of monumental inter-connectivity.

電子機械學理所當然是「機械學」與「電子學」的「化合物」;並且是一個開闊以機械學為基礎,對空間及觸感有關科技的藝術文化實踐平台。當中包括機械藝術及可動/流動雕刻藝術、錄像/聲音雕刻藝術等。於十三世紀開始,西分藝術家便開闢電子機械學的領域,並引入至舞台表演藝術、雕刻及裝置藝術,而達文西及卡雷尔乃當中代表人物。
香港浸會大學視覺藝術院客座研究學人溫安妮將於講座中闡述電子機械藝術的理論及歷史背景。並以不同的作品作開端,遊走於詩一般和而不同的藝術理論與作品之間的互聯性。
