about the artist
Eric Paulos was born in Los Angeles, California in 1969 and is currently a graduate student in the Computer Science Department at the University of California at Berkeley. His research focuses on robotics and Internet-based telepresence. In 1995 Paulos began building "ProPs" (Personal Roving Presence), two-way wireless rovers controlled via the Internet. The first ProPs were controllable blimps; later versions were roving ground-based vehicles.

Paulos is involved in research and projects that explore the relationship between human beings and technology. In 1997 he worked on a number of projects with Mark Pauline of Survival Research Laboratories. In that same year, Paulos created the Experimental Interaction Unit (EIU) which "is actively engaged in ongoing research into the physical, aural, visual, and gestural interactions between humans and machines."
