Blair-
Years ago at the South Florida Science Museum we held a Robot Beauty
Contest and got a bunch of robot participants (around 1985, when it was much
more difficult to build a robot). We judged them, of course, on their good
looks (design and execution) and talent (what could they do). They paraded
in for a great photo and then each got to perform. Of course the media
loved it.
Best wishes,
Ed Sobey

> Hi all,
> We are looking at putting together a Robot Fun-Performance Event with a
local Art College.
>
> Our joint goal is create a wacky-creative-arts-robo event to open folks
minds to the creative use of all this technology.
>
> For the event we would invite a couple hundred past robot event
participants to attend with a few students and use their Robots in a brief
"Robot performance art piece" in our Aud.
>
> -They could easily "dress-decorate-modify-program" their robots & have
them preform !
>
> -We are trying to finalize 0-12 categories ...Comedy, Drama, Satire,
Impersonation, Dancer, Painter etc......
>
> -They'll all probably be 1 min long to take place in a 4x8' area centre
stage of our Aud to a pre-recorded 1? minute music&or voiceover piece.
>
> I would appreciate if anyone else has any ideas on categories or tips on
getting something like this off the ground ?
