Three Blind Mice

Three Blind Mice is a performance art piece by three white mice driving three small glass cars. The mice will have already logged on enough driver training hours to be adept at operating the vehicles. What they choose to do with their mobility is yet to be seen.

A.R.T. is an art collaborative in the USA made up of Remo Campopiano, Guy Marsden and Jonathan. We came together in 2001 to create a piece for the Complexity exhibition at the Dorsky Museum in New Paltz, NY. Our collaboration produced Eight-bit Ant Farm http://www.artreenvisionstechnology.com/projects/ebaf/index.htm. Since then we have formalized our collective under the name A.R.T. (Art Re-envisions Technology) and have been working on a number of new projects including Three Blind Mice.
