Opens on August 5th as part of the Edinburgh Arts Festival at the Inspace Gallery, Edinburgh. Entry Free.
Inspired by early 19th century mechanical bands such as the nickelodeon, Cybraphon is an interactive version of a mechanical band in a box. Consisting of a series of robotic instruments housed in a large display case, Cybraphon behaves like a real band. Image conscious and emotional, the band’s performance is affected by online community opinion as it searches the web for reviews and comments about itself 24 hours a day.
Cybraphon is funded by the Alt-w Production Award administered by New Media Scotland.
