Rube Goldberg Processor

Media Design Workshop at HfG Karlsruhe, Spring 2011

Our everyday life is more and more captured and stored as digital data. The promise says that an extensive collection of data can be translated into objective information, whereas the translation of data depends on the subjective selection of algorithms and devices.

The digital Rube Goldberg Processor articulates this subjectivity of data by transforming a flickr image in an endless cycle of interconnected computers and algorithms.
