The Robotic Oracle is a interractive installation preditcing visitors' futures based their postcode and data from the ONS. The visitors are encouraged to text their postcode, then wait for their prediction to be printed by one of the four robots. There are over 40 types responses each including dynamic data, rendering them all unique.
Each Robot has its own personality and favourite topics. However, their heart warming apperances and the magic feeling when the ticket gets printed out of their little heads quickly give place to the malaise of their harsh predictions. Should robots really be left in charge?
