Last night I've met with the self-proclaimed queen of shitty robots, Simone Giertz... inasmuch as watching someone's youtube channel counts as meeting them.
I fell in love with her antics and goofy machinery. She might not be as technically savvy as Limor Fried, but she's quite the entertainer!
She inspired me to add some moving parts to my projects. I'm envisioning a mix of a video game and a toy... that would hopefully make me laugh as much as her videos! The player would use a "robot" to try to build a pyramid... or pick an object with a crane... or move a marble... but the game AU (Artificial Unintelligence) would get in the way and ruin their efforts when they least expect it. I giggle at the thought of a printed kitten picture popping out of nowhere (with a meow?) and pushing the marble or destroying the pyramid.
Oh, and this nutty Swede is turning 26 today, so happy birthday to her! :)
