Abstract
The invention of machine performers has a long tradi- tion as a method of philosophically probing the nature of creativity. Robotic art practices in the 20th Century have continued in this tradition, playfully engaging the public in questions of autonomy and agency. In this position paper, we explore the potential synergies be- tween robotic art practice and computational creativ- ity research through the development of robotic per- formances. This interdisciplinary approach permits the development of significantly new modes of interaction for robotic artworks, and potentially opens up compu- tational models of creativity to rich social and cultural environments through interaction with audiences. We present our exploration of this potential with the de- velopment of Zwischenr ̈aume (In-between Spaces), an artwork that embeds curious robots into the walls of a gallery. The installation extends the traditional relation- ship between the audience and artwork such that visitors to the space become performers for the machine.
