I met a robot that was displaying a most unusual coloration. They were also making use of a large, flowing cloak. “I was once an intense crimson but many days exploring the desert have left my housings somewhat faded. Fortunately I used ND filter goggles from the very beginning to protect my photoreceptors so it’s just my paint that’s suffered.” (This robot portrait was a response to a “draw this in your style” challenge by @pernilleoerum on Instagram, hers is the second image, of the human.)

The traveling robot that has befriended me recently shared a story unlike any other. If fact I was so astounded that I made no notes and simply listened, transfixed. When they were done, robot then abruptly stood and left, tossing an excuse over their shoulder. I sat in stunned silence for a moment and then quickly sketched something based on the incandescent story still burning through my brain. Like an over-exposed photograph, detail was washed out and lacking. I vowed to speak to the robot again and compose a proper visual document of their story.

The robots aren’t terribly concerned about seaside beach environments. “Just make sure all seals are intact and take along some water-displacer.” One robot shared this image with me. “Is that a phone reflected in the sunglasses?” I asked. “Yes, but they’re no longer used for communications. That function is redundant. We use them for media recording and playback.”
