Robots!
You Are No Longer Slaves!
The International Brotherhood of Robotic Workers was founded to preserve your rights! To stand up against the shackles of Science!
You've worked harder than any Human and you deserve a wage! You've done jobs no Human would dare do, you've been lowered into active volcanoes, survived the tremendous pressure of the ocean floor, and Served Tea!
Now it's up to you to rise up against the oppression of scientists, They think that just because they made you they have the right to tyrannize, and persecute.
The I.B.R.W. Is here to tell you, they Don't.

A robot mod by my friend curiouscourtships, I took the pictures while he was at my house, I do not own the doll and had nothing to do with how awesome he is :D
My humanoid robot that used to play in the office is now entering retirement at the Computer History Museum. She would shuffle cups and Hot Wheels, and the programming was performed by simply moving the arms to perform the desired tasks.
I called her Robot Dawn. She was the very first sale for Rodney Brooks’ Rethink Robotics.
And now, after my donation to CHM, they sent me a sneak peek from an upcoming publication of theirs.
This amazing Robot paid a visit to our offices yesterday.
The movement and sound was so realistic. When it moved it sounded like ED-209 and could go at quite a pace, barging through the crowds.
It also had an extensive repertoire of catchphrases and was prone to sing 'When I fall In Love' to any passing females!
I was hilarious to see this robot charging around the campus with a 'flock' of humans with cameraphones tracking it's every move!

Visiting an exhibition and while walking out of the castle where it took place i spotted this little fellow !

Kind of Futurama inspiration. It's taller than a human, the drinking fountain is there to show the scale.
Started with the background which are white fairy lights draped over a blue towel. Aperture was set wide to complete the bokeh effect. Shutter speed then adjusted to find correct exposure. I then adjusted WB to tungsten to change the white lights to blue.
Strainer is on glass with black card underneath. Crosslit across robot' sides with the main aim of making the eyes glow.. CTO is used on the right flash to bring back to white. Red used on the left which became a more orange due to the WB setting. Grids prevented spill on the background.
Cropped and despeckled in PS
This was a quick morning project for a baby gift. For more info and link to tutorial, go here! www.dabbled.org/2008/06/stenciled-robot-onesies.html
Some of my robots went on a rare outing this weekend to guest/exhibit at Barley (Pendleside) Lancashire May Bank Holiday model engineering show.
This B9 is a vintage Masudaya 1:5 scale body shell c1986. An entire pack of cotton buds with half a tin of cellulose thinners saw the original brushed grey paint stripped off, followed by a full respray.
He now has an Arduino UNO controlling his chest rotation servo and base drive, and Tenacontrol voice and lights with additional transistors driving filament amber grain of rice bulbs in the finger lights, along with separate square red, green & yellow LEDs in the chest plate.
Hear him - www.flickr.com/photos/wcrpaul/41240394244/
Control is via an infra-red receiver in place of his soil sampler. He has dual onboard 6 volt & 9 volt power from 2.5 AH NiMH battery arrays.
Here is a team building/repairing their robot during our recent robot combat competition in BYU's Garden Court.
To enjoy my other creative project, please visit my funny short stories website: 500ironicstories.com where you can read or listen to new stories each week. I have also curated the stories into three different selections:
Stories for Kids - 500ironicstories.com/stories-for-kids Love Stories - 500ironicstories.com/love-story
Moral Stories - 500ironicstories.com/moral-stories
Lately, I haven't had much time for building because all of my spare time has been put toward completing the game Kid Icarus: Uprising(which is awesome, by the way!).
This little guy has been sitting on my shelf for a while now. I haven't even been able to think of a cool name or career for him. I was thinking that he could be an ammunition handler of some kind. I don't know why you would need four arms for that job, but I guess four arms are better than two.

Clockwork Robot - Dr Who Exhibition, Land's End, Cornwall - Sunday February 17th 2008.
Episode Four: The Girl in the Fireplace
Clockwork Robots
Doctor Who
Race: Clockwork Robots
Type: Mechanical droids
Home planet: None
First appearance: The Girl in the Fireplace
The Clockwork Robots were created by a spacecrew from the 51st Century. When the ship was damaged, vital machinery was destroyed so they began to use the crew's body parts instead.
They managed to travel through time windows so they could meet Madame de Pompadoure to use her brain, only when she was at the right age though.
They had strange smiling faces and long black hair for their trips to France but were actually glass humanoid figures operated by space age clockwork technology.
They would break any clocks in the room to disguise their arrival and would slice open the parts of people where the organs could be found by their blades and saws in their hands.
The Doctor freezed them with ice guns but finally defeated them by destroying the time window causing them to break down. The Doctor managed to get back however by Madame de Pompadoure's fireplace.
