I liked the cute quirkiness of this street art transforming exhaust fans and air conditioning intakes into a robot. Fun!

Is he the little maker or the little keeper of the crystals? We may never know; we only know he is adorable! :)

I would like to point out that this series was created calmly in a very positive period of my life. Now I am far from those feelings, but I still wanted to share it.
I wish the short videos that start with flourless, sugar-free, eggless, dairy-free... cake were a dream.
I Robot too.
Apologies to the Isaac Asimov estate for the dreadful pun.

After that disaster with the OFE units, the Blue Mystery company dissolved and was never heard of again. Or so it seems.
They moved off-world and worked in secret for many years on a new line of robots. With the launch of their latest product, S.A.P.E (Sentient Automated Planetary Explorer) they took over space exploration.
And indeed for a while all was well and Blue Mystery was able to clear their name. Until reports came in from far and wide about the sheer stupidity of the S.A.P.E. units. It was not long before people referred to them as "Stupid Apes". And with that the fate of Blue Mystery was finally sealed.
Somewhere under you, a little robot sits on the edge of a reflective pool. He is hoping and wondering if there is anyone else like him in the world.

"Robot II Luftwaffe Eigentum Black, an outstanding Army Robot Camera.
During the world war II, Otto Berning produced his famous Robot Luftwaffe Eigentum
( Air force property), this was a special production of flight recognized cameras.
This is a beautiful F serial, 4th version of 1942, with Long-long advance knob
(48 exposures) and two holes on top. The F serial comes from the german
word "Flieger" or "Flyer", with the famous Sonnar 7,5 cm lens,
in aluminium body of 1941, a rare war time lens, the most popular lens was the
Tele-Xenar of 7,5 cm, the Biotar 2,0, and the Xenon 1,9 lens. Only a few units of this
versión was fited with the Carl Zeiss 7,5 cm Sonnar.
The camera was used in several German fighter planes like the Messerschmitt BF 109 and 110
and the Focke Wulf 190. In the last one the camera was mounted in a cradle in the right
wing and was connected with the guns. The camera could also be used handheld by the crew
This is a very little master piece of collection. Some research say that 20.000 units
were made."
