ROBOTS & ART

This week we will discuss how we classify robots with art. In the video above demonstrates how much attention Dirk the homeless robot actually attracted a large crowd. Using both art and robots draws a crowd around the homeless robot is a example of Art Performance.

Dennis Hong discusses that he created a robot to immulate how humans walk. he discussed that humans does not necessarly plant their foot into the ground but some what swings our legs as we walk. He created a robot that has 3 legs and and walks by swinging a leg through the other two legs. 

With the society being so vulnerable, the use of electronics are ridiculous.This image demonstrates a boy shaking the hand of a robot as if they became friends. Parents would buy robotic toys to help teach them the fundamentals of school such as Leapfrog.

 Growing up as a kid these were the only robots I've had a idea of. R2-D2 & C3PO would symbolize a healthy relationship and demonstrates how to treat one another. These are examples of robots in films and how they influence the youth since being a part of a well known film.

  1. I liked the information you presented, mostly the homeless robot, and the 3 legged robot. It seems like the robots really make people use their creativity in order to create something new and better.

  2. I like the ideas your brought up within this blog. I can relate most to the liking of the robots R2-D2 and C3PO because i used to love watching Stars Wars. These robots used to make laugh all the time and played a big role in my enjoyment of the movie. I also like the observation about Dirk the homeless robot because this combination of Art and robot is enjoyable. i would actaully stop and look at the robot myself if i seen it.
