P.E.A.R.T. stands for Pneumatic and Electronic Actuated RoboT. P.E.A.R.T. is a robot that is made to be set up in front of any drum set and play the drums with any MIDI file as the input. It is capable of running 16 separate drum channels, with each drum capable of being hit up to 19 times per second (which sounds pretty awesome on a bass drum by the way).

The Flock is a group of musical interactive sound sculptures which exhibit behaviors analogous to the flocking found in natural groups such as birds, schooling fish or flying bats. Flocking behaviors demonstrate characteristics of supra organization, of a series of animals or artificial life forms that act as one creature. They are complex, interdependent interactions which require individual flocking members to be aware of their position in relation to other flocking members.

This project is a vision-based teleoperation system that allows a user to draw using the PUMA. The project uses vision-based tracking and feature detection to identify color and position. The user holds one of two colored balls, either red or green, and the robot draws the same color line while following the path of the ball as moved by the user.
The sexed robots are autonomous wheeled platforms fitted with nylon genital organs, respectively male and female. They are programmed to explore their environment, occasionally entering a "in heat" mode, where they will try and locate a partner in the same state. If a partner is located, the robots will attempt to mate.
