Created by SymbioticA Research Group (Guy Ben-Ary, Philip Gamblen, Iain Sweetman, Stuart Bunt & Oron Catts) from SymbioticA - the Art & Science Collaborative Research Lab, University of Western Australia in Collaboration with the Steve Potter Laboratory, Atlanta, USA, the unique installation is distributed between two locations in the world. Its \u201cbrain\u201d consists of cultured nerve cells that grow and live in a neuro-engineering lab, in Atlanta in Dr Steve Potter\u2019s lab. Its \u201cbody\u201d is a robotic drawing arm that is capable of producing two-dimensional drawings. The \u201cbrain\u201d and the \u201cbody\u201d communicate in real time with each other for the duration of the exhibition. MEART The Semi Living Artist has the ability to sense the outside world through a camera that acts as its eyes. It has the ability to process what it sees through the neurons that act as its \u201cbrain\u201d. It has the ability to react accordingly through the robotic drawing arm that acts as its body. The Internet functions as its nervous system. MEART is a geographically detached entity. , Language - English","videoId":6312087445112,"browse_view":"contentTypeBrowsePageIndexView","subscription":"bvl_visartssch","title":"MEART The Semi Living Artist","xml_source":"bvl_visartssch_video-vra.xml","browse_search":"EX-Is4","videoPoster":"https://cf-images.eu-west-1.prod.boltdns.net/v1/static/4171818645001/862f0666-262d-4d5e-8737-80581cc87ce5/614ec63a-be6a-4b0f-aad0-1ab4089d4886/1280x720/match/image.jpg","series_id":"series_isThisArt","facets":"digitalArtInstallation , Digital art installation , art , Art , digitalArt , Digital Art , artAndScience , Art and science , scienceTechnologyAndNature , Science, technology, and nature , made_20002009 , 2000\u20132009 , made_2000Present , 2000\u2013present , english , English , australia , Australia , northAmerica , North America , unitedStates , United States , oceania , Oceania , origin_australia , Australia , origin_oceania , Oceania , video , Video ,","contenttypeorder":3,"series":"Is This Art?","date_of_publication":2007,"publisher":"Exero","productname":"bvl_all","id_search":"EX-Is4","facet":["art","artAndScience","australia","digitalArt","digitalArtInstallation","english","made_20002009","made_2000Present","northAmerica","oceania","origin_australia","origin_oceania","scienceTechnologyAndNature","unitedStates","video"],"contentType":"video","authors":"Kostas Metaxas~Exero"}
