brief_description
In the mid-1950s Swiss artist Jean Tinguely (1925-1991) began the production of a series titled Méta-Matics: machines that produced art works. Tinguely not only problematized the introduction of the robotic machine as interface in our society, but also questioned the role of the artist, the art work, and the viewer. Recently the Metamatic Research Initiative in Amsterdam mounted a competition to explore the potential of drawing machines for art today.
