Mr. Jellifish and Robotronia are camping in the same zone.
again.
the U-me and Hotshot have done battle previously.
This year it's clear that no one will be spared.
Simon, you are my hero. Please make the jv squad clean up the aftermath of our "camp", as it may be littered with the carcasses of
MonkeyBots
Zsu-Zsubots
MantisBots
HugoBots
Hotshot the Robots
No guarantees, but a stray male raverhippie may be among the ruins.
d6,
creep in the cellar

the monkeys are clever, were it not for the banana in it's hand, this one might have made it thru checkpoint.

Simon, your monkey vs. robot poster would make a nice embroidered patch, only 7 or 8 colors. I am often amazed at your graphic skills...

i stole the images on line and added type...
opportunistic yes, talented, ehh.
but you're right, it would make a good patch. shit, if i had one of those computerized embroidery machines, i'd never leave my workshop.
Yeah, you totally can't tell I took Grady's Monkey Chant classes, can you?
Cak! Cak-Cak!

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!
parts is parts, you know.
I had a great idea the other day as i was crunking in my studio and practicing my robot dance moves.
Giant Evolution Dance Off on the Playa
Monkey dance vs. Robot dance
i wanna see some monkey butt shaking, and some robots busting a move to finally prove who has the best rhythm.
Robots, duh.

it's hard to keep up with a 60hz high kick staccato...........
let alone 3 phase tap dancing..........
but, then again, as the monkeys type the declaration of independence............

if you could put yer brain in a robot body....would you?

thats a great question with many spin offs...
would you put a robot brain in flesh?
the mingling of the two is now ubiquitous, my mom has two replacement knees, my dad, all kinds of plastic plumbing around his innards.
hell, even dick cheney has a robot heart....(sorry robot heart, i didnt mean to associate you with dick cheney, it just slipped out, my bad)
i guess to answer the first question, certain conditions would have to be known, can i upload my experiences (my brain) into lab grown, genetically modified NEW FLESH(tm) or do i have to do a hard wire to my spinal column and exist inside a metal box.
with that said, also consider how the mind works, especially with prosthetics.
studies and experiments have shown amazing adaptations on our behalf (as well as test monkeys) to actually "feel" our new appendages and have sensations because the bone interprets the vibration and the brain fills in the blanks. sort of like phantom limb, but in reverse.
after a while you wont know the difference, except when reminded by stimula or others that your existence is simalacre.
pretty cool, huh.
ok, gotta go, have to swap out my batteries and feed the monkeys.
