Big Robot Mk.2
Hiroo Iwata (JP)
This video installation shows the largest movable robot in the world. Large humanoid robots, such as Gundam or Macros, are popular in Japanese animation and Manga. What if robots of this kind appeared in the real world? The existence of real large-scale robots may inspire the audience to be courageous. Thus, it has potential as an art form. The Big Robot Project aims to develop the world’s largest rideable robot.
The Big Robot Mk.2 is an extension of the *Big Robot Mk.1* which was exhibited at Ars Electronica 2016.
