The latest video from Marco Tempest had one simple goal, which was to give off the illusion that man and machine are working in sync.
Meant to be an artistic video demonstrating how man and machine can work together, the results are mesmerizing.
While we may not all have an army of drones following us around anytime soon, it is neat to see the quadcopters react to Marco’s every movement.
Marco Tempest writes:
My latest production, utilizing autonomous drones, quadcopters, flying close to and around my body like a flock of trained birds. As legislation about the use and safety of flying drones is being debated around the world, this is a timely demonstration.
Working with Daito Manabe, Motoi Ishibashi and their team at Rhizomatiks Research in Tokyo, the goal is to create an intimate and artistic interaction between man and machine.
