Lev and Thumpbot play Crazy![]() Our friend Ranjit over at Moonmilk.com has a video of Lev, a robotically played theramin, and Thumpbot which is essentially a solenoid played gathering of things not normally used as percussion instruments, playing Crazy by Gnarls Barkley. Poke around a bit and you'll find them playing Patsy Cline's version of Crazy too. Posted at 1:48 PM by CTP | | |

Roboxotica 2007![]() Okay, so we are posting this a little after the fact, but we were on hiatus when it was going on. Roboxotica 2007 took place in Vienna, Austria, this past November. We were there. I took a piece of art - a piece of art that I programmed in the gallery 2 hours before the show opened, on a microcontroller that I soldered together 30 minutes before. Yea, I'm pretty bad-ass that way ;-) Anyway, loads of fun was had. Loads of stuff was shared and learned. People liked what they saw. We can't wait until next year.
