Arrangements for Robotic Arm

Synopsis

Arrangements for Robotic Arm is a series of looping animations composed through repeated acts of computational output, robot-actuated drawing and sequencing. Each segment resolves seamlessly into itself and creates a perfect loop without a fixed beginning or end. Here, repetition functions as both process and subject: every animation begins as a software program whose code is written to run a motion sequence before being brought back to a “zero frame” which enables both the software program and its visual output to repeat in perpetuity. The series approaches repetition as a condition which unfolds in time. Meaning emerges through this consistent and sustained return to an initial form before starting once more.
