Abstract

The following graphic novel is an excerpt from the fully automated puppet theater Of someone who went forth to find a flat in Berlin. An automation-drama in three acts – Act 3: In ultimate consequence by Clemens Schöll (2019/2020). For this version, the footage from the filmic documentation as well as the 3D scans was transformed with the support of various automated software components. As in the puppet theater original, automation processes are used to talk about automation: Who has which accesses, who sets the rules and who benefits from automation?
