What is Dorkbot?
It’s a science fair with beer.
It’s a geek talent show.
It’s people doing strange things with electricity.
Best of all, it’s fun, free, kid-friendly and hands-on.
This month’s Dorkbot features three acts:
Kym Graner's S.U.V. (Shy Ultra Violet Mechanical) Flower, complete
with sound effects and human interaction.
Denise Scioli & P.Y. Hung's Mechanical Flower — a large (nearly five-
feet tall) industrial restaurant-supply inspired mechanical flower
sporting light sequences and patterns set to music and sound effects.
Alan Watts’ Mikons — the first online vector drawing tool discussed
and demoed by its creator.
And special musical guest this month, Attic Ted — demented carnie
music with hydrocephalic old man head masks.
As always, the event is free, and the food and beer is yummy, thanks
to our host, Café Mundi.
