Enduring Technology

Close your eyes. Imagine you are once again in front of the arduino. It’s early Saturday morning, and the fog have set in for the day. Whatever toy you reach for it will have to entertain you for a long time. That is for your desire to be stimulated, for the beauty in electricity logics or for the completely easily understood java-syntax. Maybe it is an erector set, an arduino bord or legos. Whatever it is chances are it has a lot of fascinating widgets that will keep you immersed in building a world in which your imagination is king. Or not.

The truth so far would have to be modified from the prologue. The fantasies are interrupted and fragmented by the technological fence. Technology is not the friend you prepare your dreams with, not the brother you risk your life for - it is in its signification the biatch that you will have to learn to live with. Adapt and concur.

Although the striving has been an every day companion I would like to give my appreciation to the group members. Axel – for your input of structure and your concern for the groups overall enthusiasm. Patrik – for your ease to collaborate and trustfully approach to deliver tasks. Niklas – for finding your own way to contribute with the issues concerning the exhibition. Nemo – for your patience with my fantasies of licking the resistors. It is because of this group symmetry, I believe we will make it to the exhibition.

In the creation of the exciting sound and light installation, the very essence of the fucked up technology will be presented in the most serious of work. Imagination is king.

Love

Martin Brolin
