~ rather sweet, n'est ce pas?

5-minute distraction - robots again!

OK - you know I love paper stuff, design and robots. So when you put them all together it has to be a good thing. I'm taking a 5-minute break from my work to bring you these little guys, made by Juan Diego:

..... and speaking of robots, I just remembered the wonderful Tweenbot project. Did you see it when I posted it last year?

I also found this photo by Willycoolpics on Flickr. It's titled 'Rock, paper - hey wait a minute ....!'

*wink!*

Little robot + people = art

Oh wow! I absolutely love the Tweenbots experiment that Kacie Kinzer* has been working on for her thesis at ITP in New York. Please have a look - it's a cheerful little story.


It's sweet and simple, yet it creates a wonderful narrative about social interaction, place and intent. I'd love to try something similar in Melbourne.

*You might also like to take a peep at the other works in Kacie's portfolio - they're lovely!
