Vernissage Nicolas Darrot

Museum Tinguely cordially invites you to the fifth opening of Nicolas Darrot. Fuzzy Logic from 6:30 pm onwards. 
Free admission.


Fuzzy Logic transforms Basel's smallest exhibition space, the former telephone booth at Museum Tinguely, into a stage for automated figures. In 2027 the 5th and last figure of Nicolas Darrot will be presented. The figure comes to life, singing, dancing and moving according to its own fuzzy logic. As the final character, Yuki Otoko will take the stage. The opening will be accompanied by a lecture performance by Jean-Yves Jouannais.

Conférence-performance de Jean-Yves Jouannais (en français, 30 min)


Nicolas Darrot. Fuzzy Logic
5 2026 - 7 March 2027

Nicolas Darrot. Fuzzy Logic

Fuzzy logic, a type of artificial intelligence that allows computers to deal with 'fuzzy' concepts, mimics human reasoning. It doesn't just have the strictly binary 1 (yes, true) or 0 (no, false), but works with gradations to describe states like warm or cool linguistically rather than strictly mathematically. Nicolas Darrot's Fuzzy Logic characters are full of insecurities and mood swings; their dancing is spontaneous, their acting is complex, their talent imperfect.
