This is a great video that I think speaks to the true nature of people. It follows the story of the “tweenbot”, an experimental robot created by Tisch School of the Arts student Kacie Kinzer.
Here is what Kacie had to say about the project:
I wondered: could a human-like object traverse sidewalks and streets along with us, and in so doing, create a narrative about our relationship to space and our willingness to interact with what we find in it? More importantly, how could our actions be seen within a larger context of human connection that emerges from the complexity of the city itself? To answer these questions, I built robots.
I hope you enjoy and would love your comments!
Would you help the tweenbot along if you saw it on the street?
