We solicit your benevolent patronage to finance our travel costs and affix their creators’ signatures on the scattered automata. Human means are given on a voluntary basis and thus are not accounted for in the budget presented here.</strong></p><p><strong>The non-profit organization “Laboratoire de l’Imaginaire” is based at the Automata Museum, located in the city of Limoux, where Martine Morand and Jean-Jacques Achache crafted their works.</strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>This non-profit organization aims at:</strong></p><p>- <strong>Promoting the artistic legacy of Martine Morand and Jean-Jacques Achache</strong></p><p>- <strong>Making new automata</strong></p><p>- <strong>Passing on the knowledge of the making of automata</strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>This project is directed by Martine Morand, Judith Morand and Rémi Delguel; </strong></p><p><strong>Jean-Jacques Achache does not take part in this project, having passed away in 2011.</strong></p><p> </p><p> </p>

They will enable us to carry out the first stage of the project described above. If we exceed our current fundraising goal, we’ll be able to carry this project further on by launching a second search session, as this is only a first step based on a previous search.
