This image, which we have named "Folk Robot", was sent to us
by Casey Shermer. Here is what Casey has to say about the robot.
"This robot, which I think is the coolest robot I have
ever seen, is a mask/homemade folk art peice. It is wearable art I
suppose. It was sold for 100 and some odd dollars in an auction, and I
didn't win, unfortunately, but I did get this picture :) It was made out
of found parts including a fan blade, a large cardboard tube and an
actual glass eye! The lights in the top of the head lit up as well with
4 D-cell batteries. I'm afraid I don't know the artist's name. As far as
me, I'm a freshman at Rogue Community College as yet undeclared (my
major that is). I try to stay busy collecting my own 'found objects' for
the robot I intend to build -- I've already got a metal lunchbox for the
head."
If anyone has any other information on this robot,
