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

I ROBOT

This is one of the first books I ever read after leaving school and it took me down the long road of Science Fiction. Isaac Asimov, Philip K Dick, J G Ballard, Frederic Pohl, Jack Williamson, Robert A Heinlein and so many others.

So this is a little tribute to those imaginative folk who put pen to paper, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

The little clock character was a birthday gift of many moons ago, he seemed appropriate to go on the shelf too. A bit cranky now, he doesn’t stand up by himself but leans in a very casual way and is a good timekeeper.

The next bit is a bit weird, I don’t own a copy of Asimov’s “I Robot” because it’s not in Penguin Books and I only collect Penguin Science fiction but I might make an exception and buy it along with the ‘Foundation' series at some time.

Hope some of you have enjoyed Sci/Fi too and have appreciated those writers and their imaginations. Here are a couple of other titles that I think have gone down in history as classic fiction.

Good fun playing off the bold color theme of the minifigure.

Two skeletons of old gasoline pumps appear almost like robots or strange monsters as they sit along side an abandoned building in Coolidge, Texas.

Category 7. Colonial Futurism

A blend of old-fashioned "retro styles" with futuristic technology. Explores the themes of tension between past and future, and between the alienating and empowering effects of technology - think mecha harvesting wheat, floating parishes, that kinda stuff.

Robot lunch, ... only a glass of good oil is missing.

-Chocon- LAPUUTA Robot*

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.

First Law: A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

Second Law: A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.

Third Law: A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws

Köln

An ice robot at the end of a Breakwater. See the two pointed things sticking out of the pole halfway up? I saw those as elbows, and now I can't unsee this as a figure with a bug boxy head, wearing robes, standing with its hands on its hips, looking out over the water. Robots don't usually wear robes - but the boxy head makes me think robot. (Pareidolia!)

This is the breakwater at 31st street beach a couple weeks ago before the thaw. Covered in ice that must have built up all winter.

If you really know what it is, you know your Liverpool.

Time for some Friday night lubrication.

Human background, so very 2023

When my son was very little he asked me why there were robots lining the Edinburgh City Bypass. I told them that they were sentries whose job was to protect the wild animals from crossing the bypass and getting injured or killed. I took this photo from just beside the busy dual carriageway. The beautiful Pentland Hills are in the background.

I took this photo at the Forum in the city of Groningen, the Netherlands, looking up at the escalators....

You see what you see in rock formations. I see pieces of other robots laying around this surviving robot.

This is the Alien World area and requires a hike in the desert.

Inteligencia Artificial

Found these dead robots in west Texas.

As soon as Burning Man 2018 ended, "Robot Resurrection" (right) paid a visit to "Big Charles... (An homage to Charlie Smith)" (left).

Both robots are creations by Shane Evans.
