The Kindness of Strangers
Posted by bmackay on April 26, 2009
I'm a tweenbot but you can call me Blanche DeBois!
If you are a robot lost in a big city, it helps to be small, vulnerable and cute as artist and student Kacie Kinzer discovered with her tweenbots experiment. Those lovable androids with only a “forward” setting were helped by passersby on their mission across Washington Square park in NY. I’m just an IT guy but I reckon there are some complex man/machine interactions in play here.
Just love the tweenbots! Even the music in the video will cheer you up.
