Simone Giertz / Shitty Robots

April 2016

For a piece about Simone Giertz by Sam Rowe in Wired Magazine

I decided to take Simone’s portrait not by travelling to Stockholm, where she lives, but by sending a camera (thanks Sony), attaching it to her homemade robot arm and controlling it over the Internet from my desk in London.

I gave directions via FaceTime – hence the headphones – and pressed the shutter using Sony’s Remote Camera Control app.
