[Robotgroup] Robots, Groups, Art, Technology

[brooksdesign]

What I have observed is very little apparent awareness of the 
interactions of
the "group" members.  If you want to build some sort of robot, what is
your model?
Humans?  Members of The Robot Group"?  Build some robots  that drink beer,
tells jokes, stuff their intakes with an over abundance of fuel and 
"chat" at ever
increasing levels of volume, until all are shouting - even those within 
3 feet of
each other.  Have the robots move form one impromptu clump of "members",
to another if some "interesting" word is parsed from the shouting.  No
need
to stay in context.  Stay up too late and have to go to work the next day.
Posting comments to a group email would be trivial.
Surely these would be simple robots to build - but would you want to?




I love that idea .We could get an NEA grant and .......Oh that reminds me ,we couldn't get NSF grants to build our ideas of robots but the Austin arts comunity loved us and use to give us $20k a year to keep it coming .
