Carnevale 3.0

Carnevale 3.0, investigates how sentience is constructed from living in an extended structure of time in relationship with memory and bodily experience.  As a mediator of experience this robotic entity has the ability to manifest human behaviour by generating responsive movements, processing information, and accessing long term or short-term memory.  Recollection, physicality and sentience become mutable entities.
