Sarah Petkus NoodleFeet: Building a Robot as Art 

Hackaday Superconference // Nov 14-15 // Dogpatch Studios // San Francisco
Some artists work in Ink on Paper, some work in Oil Paint, others work in mixed-media. But right now Sarah Petkus is working in Robot. That's right, her artistic vision is a robot that interacts in unique and enthrawling ways. Even just talking about a robot with pool noodles as feet, that tastes the ground, slobbers as it walks, and grabs for land when you try to pick it up makes us smile. But this is indeed what she's working on, and has been quite successful in the design and build process. Check out this talk she presented at the 2015 Hackaday SuperConference to see what has gone into NoodleFeet so far. And if you want to see what is yet to come, look at the little guy's appearances in her web comic, Gravity Road.
