Happy Halloween from Day of the Robot
Being an avid fan of both ancient Egyptian culture and toilet paper, The Mummy was the perfect costume idea for Ned.

Had an enjoyable time at the closing night of Carter Sexton’s Robot Show. Met several other robot enthusiast artists, enjoyed some laughs and had wine in plastic cups. Like a BOSS-BOT.
Greetings Nerdist listeners who have come to see what Day of the Robot is all about. If you want to see a robot eating a burrito, here he is.
If you haven’t yet heard the podcast yet, it’s a great one for anybody looking to launch their own creative project, be it a book or an independent film. Diani and Devine have been through it all and they’ve got plenty of advice for you.
If you like what they’ve got to say and appreciate their valiant effort to bring great things to life by their own bootstraps, get a copy of their feature film, The Selling by Kickstarting their theatrical release!
Check out the video. It’s cleverly written as always and edited by me! So please help out the cause and you’ll be indirectly funding more robots creations!
Someone liked my pieces at Mindfulnest Santa Monica and commissioned a custom wedding cake topper for her upcoming ceremony. Reception I guess I should say. Or maybe I should insist it be utilized in the ceremony too somehow?

She liked the heart motif from the LuvBots so I was able to combine that with the idea of bent wires as the bouquet. I’m sure it will be a unique wedding and I hope she’ll send pictures…

This robot has an enthusiasm for raising exotic plants. Unfortunately his latest hybrid creation has an enthusiasm for eating robot faces.
This sculpture measures 4″ tall and is made from a high strength plaster called ultracal, wire, and polymer clay. The plant is completely hand mixes and sculpted so each one will be unique. His is mounted on to a sturdy base and requires no watering.

Who would have thought that people so brutal online toward poorly conceived handicrafts are such warm and friendly people to hang out with. Well I guess I had a hunch or I wouldn’t have gone would I? Have?
Entering this place is like walking into a giant jukebox – which I believe was the premise for a failed Happy Days spin-off cartoon.
Our host for the evening. Despite their over the top raunchy dances, his sensibilities were too delicate to announce our group as “Club Fuckery” as requested. Instead we were a group of co-workers “from Finland.” By the end of the eveing he was almost on track, calling us “Regret Website.”
One of our servers making the jump to light speed.
Sake bombs awaiting deployment.
April, the mastermind behind Regretsy, was tickled by tribute Regretsy Bot I made up for her. Get a closer look HERE
And just in case we didn’t already think we were at the Chuck-E-Cheese of sushi restaurants, the waitstaff was forced to put on an awful lip-synced Disney musical mash-up slash blatant request for us to order more beer and sake. The Wizard of Oz lion mask utilized for the Lion King number was so faded and disgusting that it actually looks to have been peeled off a dead shut-in.

In honor of this month’s LA Regretsy Meet-up, January’s Robot of the month is Regretsy Bot.
As the Terminator franchise has taught us, human skulls are plentiful in the post-robot apocalypse world. This painfully misguided robot has donned his favorite balaclava and is glittering and glue-gunning away at a heaping pile of bad art. Is it comforting that your cranium might well be a pine cone of the future?
Out of all the project videos uploaded to Kickstarter.com, it’s quite an honor for the video I edited to top the list of the best videos of 2011! I’d like to take all the credit, but there’s no question it’s one of Kickstarter’s favorites due to the witty and intelligent writing of Diani & Devine.
I’ts an honor to be mentioned (in a positive light) on Regretsy! Lots of fun comments too. Not to worry, robotic barnyard animals and a caganer were already in the works, but weren’t ready for the 2011 set (the Robot Jim figurines were a lot to get off my plate). Excuses, excuses I know. It gives us all something to look forward to for 2012!
