Robotic eagle plays baseball

Craft & Design Robotics

“Monsieur Houdin, n’oebliez pas votre oiseau!” is a mechatronic sculpture of a bird with an eagle skull perched on an oversize leather glove. Pretty interesting idea for a bot and pretty creepy as well, too bad it’s past Halloween.

    …it reminds me somewhat of the antagonists from the Dark Crystal.

    The title of the exhibition has a slight spelling mistake – it’s oubliez, not oebliez – it translates to ‘Mister Houdini didn’t forget your bird!’

    Although, what the artist means by that, I’ll never fathom. Huzzah surrealist!
