Seemen present performances allowing audience members to directly operate and interact with their machines and robots. They are a collaborative of some forty odd art drop outs and extreme technology inventors who enjoy exploring their taste for the dark side of applied engineering in robot/kinetic art

This is the 0-Gravity chair, volunteer gets strapped in a Volvo seat. It spins forward & reverse as 2 wheels of fire spin independently in both directions. You get a sense of free-falling, weightlessness, being in the eye of the storm, surrendering your well-being, ………… being a human centrifuge. I've never come close to running this full speed.
