The installation gathers a group of 10 robotic dogs in which some punctual and random bugs emerge (this is almost a pleonasm) in order to ironically illustrate the potential consequences of some functional problems in the system. It consists of

For his 2007 work Machine for Taking Time (boul. St-Laurent), David Rokeby recorded thousands of images of the city of Montreal from identical points of view every day for a year. In Murmurscape (Montreal), letter-shaped fragments excised from this

In this experimental space, seven little chimerical robots are evolving, some animals which have the general morphology of a dog but some have bovine coats provided with horns (mad cow disease?), pork skin (xenotransplantation? unless it’s a cross

Nemo, the robotic fish, is swimming imperturbably in the screen, which is his fish tank as well. The robotic cat is sitting in front of the screen and he is watching it as he was looking at a real fish swimming in a real tank. Time to time he
