What can you say about a group of artists that play with Boeing jet engine powered
flame throwers, tele-operated robots, 3D interfaces to robotic performance art,
Web accessible projectile launchers all broadcast over the Internet. Welcome to the
wonderful world of Survival Research Laboratories. (SRL).
Believe it or not, SRL was founded over twenty years ago by Mark Pauline the director. There
have been over 40 performances to date. There are a variety of teleoperation interfaces
to these devices. Primarily Java and or VRML based. According to Karen Marcelo one
of the key SRL participants, "I believe its the first time anyone has made an immersive
3D interface to lethal machines that attracted the cops/firemen!" You can't beat that
for sheer entertainment value ;-)
