Fuck it, this isn’t a museum or a library, but it combines our love for all things creepy with our recent interest in moving mobile machines: The Automata / Automaton Blog!
The front page is currently a little weak, but dig a bit through the archives. Such cool, uncanny stuff. Oh we wanna build some.
Favs:
Wind-powered Whirligig Head with Moving Jaw
Roullet & Decamps – rabbit drummer automaton
Automata and Social Issues: Anti-War Automata
Arthur Ganson’s gorgeous automata are worth a trip to the MIT Museum. Worth many trips. Worth skipping something important. Love this stuff.
