Automated And Mechanical Curiosities

The Automata Series


​One of the many takeaways from the Covid-19 pandemic experience of 2020, for me anyway, was the realization of just how much of our daily activities and overall lives, especially with social interactions, can be given over to electronics and their artificial intelligence. It all got me to thinking how removed humanity has gotten from nearly every device we use. As opposed to mechanical devices that work on gravity, air or water flow, even physical turning, cranking and pedaling. So in this series I present my reaction to these thoughts in my own playful little way.
