Stick to resist – autonomous
version
Electro-magnet, battery, keypad, electro-luminescent diodes, battery
charger / gare Saint-Lazare, France, 2004
The autonomous version of Stick to Resit is made up of a high-capacity (300 kilo) electro-magnet
with a degree of relative autonomy enabling it to be installed in public
spaces on metallic surfaces such as the Eiffel Tower. The robot is equipped with an electronic signature, enabling its user
to activate and deactivate the magnet. Without the personal identification
number, it is impossible to remove the magnet once solidly installed
in a public space. When activated, a countdown shows the battery-life,
suggestive of a time bomb; far from being the case, when the countdown
ends, the electromagnet falls to the ground. Stick to resist is a functional
robot, equipped with a certain degree of autonomy, a battery and a
memory. The electromagnet is an electrical resistor, by resisting,
the device makes its presence felt and stands solidly by its own.
