""Monolog Of Two Machines"" is a kinetic installation of two lamps having a dialog. The mechanic arms are moved by servos via steel strings, so they gain a kind of gesture. As soon as someone gets close to the system, both lamps focus the intruder until a certain distance is restored. The associative connection of the mechanical dynamics to the own repertoire of gestures enables the recipient to decode the movement and creates a contour of life.
