I have been thinking about Puppet robotics ever since I saw Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence. The robots in the movie are very puppet like and I am thinking that it might be an interestingly cheap, low weight, central core actuator design concept. I am also thinking that puppetry has been around for thousands of years and might offer a plethora of concepts that have not been updated in a while but also a large set of cheap workable manufacturing solutions. Working with wood as an architecture would be cheap and interesting. We should check out jigsaws and how much acrylic plastic sets are.
I have been thinking more and more about creating Anthem maybe a puppet show would be a good way of getting kids interested. Pinocchio the body without the mind... Objectivist Pinocchio? Climax of theme results in that mind and body are equally important. What is my body without my soul? What is my soul without my body? I wonder if this is what Artificial intelligence was trying to get across and failed so miserably at.
