Description: | Can a human be void of emotion? Can a machine love? What separates a human from a machine? As machines and computers become more sophisticated, artificial intelligence more accurate and with human cloning knocking at our evolutionary doorstep, we may begin to wonder what ultimately will determine our individuality as humans. A.R.M. The collective A.R.M. began in 2003 with Nikolas Dixon and Jan Pienkowski collaborating on a project for the 2003 Divers/Cité festival. The festival’s Flexx night was dedicated to dance performances and Nikolas, Jan, and two dancers (Jadson Caldeira, Fabio Dorea) performed the work live to an audience of several thousand. In 2004, Nikolas and Jan decided to add a third dimension to their work by incorporating live video into their performances. In spring 2004, vidoegrapher Heide Aufgewekt was chosen to create video for upcoming work "Appliance of Man", presented in four evenings in May 2004 at Tangente to a sold out audience. In the fall of 2004, A.R.M.’s "I, Slave" headlined the Black and Blue Leather Ball incorporating the video skills of photographer and video artists Pierluigi Vecchi (VJ Fluid). A.R.M.’s latest project "Hacking the Human Hard Drive" explores, through dance, music and video, the relationships, present and future, between humans and machines. The first part of the HHHD series, "Bots", delves into the workings of machines, whether ro"bots" as we think of them today or technology alien to our current way of thinking.
