GMU:Hallucinating computers and dreaming non-machines/Theo

Project name: I love my computer

basic information

the focus of this project is the co-dependency between a machine and its owner/human, as well as their differences.

idea

in this project I will create a multimedia artwork about the relationship between my late computer and me. It will focus on the life of a machine and human together and how a relationship like that works. I will compare our parts and see if they are similar in any way or if we have anything in common.

Through different mediums I will depict our relationship with each other, I will try to show how I see my computer and how my machine might see me. Another aspect I want to explore is if its able to have a relationship between a machine and non-machine as equals.
