The Robot festival started in New York this past weekend. Wish I could be there.

“Eyebeam will host ROBOT, a four-day festival featuring a robotic talent show, exhibition, workshops, presentations, party and massage parlor. ROBOT will take place from July 12 – 15, 12-6pm daily at Eyebeam's Chelsea facility located at 540 West 21st Street between 10th and 11th Avenues. The four-day event will examine current applications of robotic technologies on creative practices, activism, consumerism and physical intimacy. Eyebeam will conclude the event July 15 with a party from 6-10pm featuring music by DJ-I ROBOT, the first random-access, fully analog robotic DJ. All events are open to the public free of charge with a suggested donation.”
