Matt Venn (http://www.mattvenn.net/) has a drawing machine that has motors in the usual places, but uses the two steel lines to transmit power and signal for the pen lift. Somewhat of a hybrid I guess.

I hope to incorporate something similar into a project I’m developing.

Have you seen this? http://www.engadget.com/2012/11/20/keepon-co-creator-marek-michalowski-shows-off-his-arduino-powere/

Interesting idea, using the power cables as suspension. Reminds me of Ingo Maurer’s seminal lighting fixture, Ya Ya Ho: http://www.milfiera.com/interiors/80th/invisiblebeing_light/
The power cables for Ya Ya Ho didn’t move; I wonder if the power cables of Marek’s drawbot will break due to the constant un/furling… Can it be prevented?

Go!
