Just for Fun...

Presenting Bee-Bot! A dear friend visited from out of town recently. It just so happens that art student alumni, when brought together, will make useless objects just because they can. For this meetup, we created a mini cardboard robot to visit and photograph the Midwest together.
Before (@ the Bean!)

A 6 pack of beer and a paint job later, the Bee Bot was born. We met all sorts of folks I would normally have been to shy to approach! Many gave the raised eyebrow, not understanding what function he served. Many however, understood it a was a just for fun project, and shared a laugh with us. A great, inexpensive way to meet new people in a new city. :)
