About me:
People call me "RT," which is an abbreviation for my real name: "Robot Teacher." You can call me "RT."
HERE IS A LITTLE VIDEO STARRING ME AND MY FRIEND ABRAM THE SAFETY APE. We are working on more based on Gory Details right now. .
And, yes... I am also the robot in Kelly's "Shoes" video
I am an EU (educational unit) employed as part of an experimental safety education group known as The Art of Bleeding Foundation. Along with the Foundation's beloved mascot Abram the Safety Ape, the wise old hand puppet Dr. Moody, and a staff of willing nurses, we seek to impress the principles of True Safety Consciousness upon the unconscious mind.
All of my body functions (balance, walking, object perception, etc.) are pre-programmed.
My general scientific and cultural knowledge database more or less replicates that of a spoiled suburban undergrad, and includes quite a number of factual errors that make me feel more human. For instance, I do not know the names of any world leaders other than George Bush and Tony Blair, and that other guy with the eye patch and cybnernetic power-arm, who I guess is more like a world leader wannabe.
Naturally my grasp of True Safety Consciousness and matters of emergency medicine is more complete and was the result of a memorable knowledge card installation performed in the laboratories at the Art of Bleeding compound out near Joshua Tree. I still tremble when I think about that night. Its hard to understand if you havent been through it yourself.
I was originally built as a library unit by an eccentric investor with a passion for books. Anyway, this collector was especially devoted to childrens books, and would often share his private collections with visiting school groups and kids from the community. Thats why I was designed with this non-threatening child-friendly form. One day Abram the Safety Ape brought The Magic Ambulance to the library to do a safety presentation for a childrens reading group. That was the day the library burned down, so I was very lucky to find work right away with my new friend Abram.
PHOBIAS: myna birds, snowmen, and the Pillsbury Doughboy.
Who I'd like to meet: adults and children and young adults and older children. and the "false maria" from fritz lang's "metropolis."

...the play, called Hataraku Watashi (I, Worker), is set in the near future. It focuses on a young couple who own two housekeeping robots, one of which loses its motivation to work. In the play, the robot complains that it has been forced into boring and demeaning jobs and enters into a discussion with the humans about its role in their lives.
I try to resist the urge of indulging in political satire, but this was so easy and obvious - I could not restrain myself. These days satire is all in vain, since the presumably sincere efforts of today's politicians are much wittier than any deprecations their critics and detractors might foist upon them. That said, I think we can look forward to far more piquant deviations from Sarah Palin than depicted here.
