mpete-yes, "your" boy rob gets around... ;)email me, and i`ll send some text that describes the philosophy/intent behind what we call Mechudzu©, the marriage of machine and Kudzu.I do see organic growth [some call it AI, others poo the idea], or a hybrid life-entity in the future- been doing a lot of research on cyborgs and the eventual collision of life-tech and machine-tech.man, the animal, is natural. man`s mind, or the evolution of it, and the concoctions/constructs/machines he
makes/designs/dreams of are not [in the organic "mother-nature" sense], but ARE so in the the fact that they are products of a natural condition, that of man.hence the conflict.hence the fascination.hence the journey.

Hola My Boy Rob, recently introduced me to your work and I have read a bit about your process from loudpaper. great stuff and is strangely similar to some things i have been working on over the last few years. in much of your work it seems that the machine seeks to "grow" as rampant as kudzu. do you see this as a natural evolution for the machine, for it to evolve organically, evolving past human geometries. does the struggle between man and nature play a role in your process... is man natural?
