ELRAT: Research Lab for Robotics in Art and Theater

 

Installation “Mother and Child” by Bram Ellens (2022).

 

We are Bram Ellens, Ulrike Quade, Rick van Dugteren and Maaike Bleeker. Together we investigate how robots can be used in art and theatre, and what art and theatre can do for robotics. We bring together expertise from the arts and theatre, from robotics, and from academic research into both of them. We invest in creative explorations that provide the basis for artistic creations, practical applications and theoretical insights. We regularly open our lab to visitors to share our work in progress.
