Ken Goldberg is an artist and engineering professor at the University of California, Berkley. He created a robotic arm surrounded by a neatly organized garden. Users can interact with the garden via the internet. They are able to sign in to water or even relocate plants. The lives of the plants depend on the ability of people to log on and care for the plants in a timely fashion. His type of art goes with the idea of letting the viewer interact with the project and tweak it any way they feel fit. People do not know if it is real or fake because all they know of it is through the internet. I feel it is neat to be able to take care of something living even though a person may be thousands of miles away.
