Mojo, an interactive sculpture, consists of a robotic arm standing on the top of a pedestal. The robotic arm has a spot light that tracks the passerbys. Christian Moeller, the international artist who created Mojo, describes it on his web site as a "Robotic Light Installation". He further states: "A robotic arm holding a theater spotlight shines a perfect circle of light onto the sidewalk corner of 7th and Centre Streets. Two videocameras attached to the roof of the building survey the area around the sculpture while Mojo tries to follow the passers-by with his light beam." The Curator for Mojo is Marc Pally. Mojo's programming was done by Sven Thoene. Carlson & Company fabricated Mojo. Mojo is located next to and its cameras are on top of the Centre Street Lofts. The "Robotic Light Installation" is best viisted at night so the full effect of the light beam can be experienced. A First Thursday night is an excellent time to view Mojo as part of a visit to San Pedro's walkable Historic Waterfront and Arts District.
