Biomechanical Recordings") 1970-2005, edited by Piotr Krajewski and Violetta Kutlubasis-Krajewska. It contains a book and 3 DVDs with Robakowski’s film and video works.

The review contains a discussion of the book composed of two texts dedicated to the artist’s work, comments on his inspirations and views on art as well as reminiscences of his youth, including those from the period of Film Form Workshop.
