Before Viktor there was Hektor, a relatively simple spray-can output device driven by two motors. Both are amalgams of digital and mecha­nical technologies – collages of tools invented for other uses. Far from being closed mechanical devices – black boxes between creative impulse and output – the concern of Hektor and now Viktor is the nuanced inter­action between the user and the technologies of communi­cation.
