Bio
Artist-engineer Marc Böhlen, aka RealTechSupport (Switzerland and USA), offers the kind of support technology really needs. He designs and builds information-processing systems that critically reflect on information as a cultural value through speculative robotic interventions. His projects query the relationship between people and automation systems in fundamental ways, with a focus on public computational media: the making of information for shared concerns in the public realm. He is on the faculty of the Department of Media Study at the University at Buffalo, New York.
