Kubic’s Cube by Francisco Lopez at Gogbot Festival in Enschede.
Kubic is a two and a half meter long aluminium robot that hangs from a ceiling, and moves according to the construction of its limbs as it performs to the music and sounds of the artist.
Kubic’s Cube is a performative Installation with Kubic acting as a dance-machine, a cubist kinetic sculpture and an instrument of rhythmic movement.
Kubic hangs in the space surrounded by sounds of a jungle, and illuminated by a video projector. The public moves freely in space and regards the robot from different perspectives. Pablo Ventura has programmed a choreography in which static positions and coincidental movement patterns produce the illusion that the robot is alive.
