Paula Salurand – Machine Machine

Connection between humans is created through eye contact, smell, temperature, magnetic field, verbal communication, gestures, meaningful smile, etc. Through the evolutionary traits of empathy and anthropomorphism, that we as species have evolved, we are able to connect with other species, but also with inanimate objects, such as man-made machines. We are even capable of creating empathy towards a machine that has no visual nor functional similarities to a human. To connect we need one of forementioned senses, or sensors. A camera lens works technically as a simplified version of an organic eye. Hence, I became curious about the mechanic perception and recording distorted landscapes, where objects blend together as if they were never apart.
