"Discovering Robotics" @ OSU Urban Arts Space

"In partnership with COSI, the OSU Urban Arts Space offered an opportunity for kids to build basic robotics knowledge and skills using Lego Mindstorms robot kits. Brad Lotocki, Mechanical Engineer from NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, led a robotics workshop and presentation for kids (ages 9 - 14).

Participants had the unique opportunity to learn about the impact robotics has had on the work of both an artist and an engineer. Inspired by Alan Price's recent cutting-edge exhibition Immersive Environments, the workshop was offered with the visual context of Price's artwork. Price discussed the role robotics plays in his interactive, real-time animations. Lotocki's presentation complemented Price's talk, with video and a discussion of the robotic elements that Goddard is developing for the International Space Station."

Special thanks to Mike Relm, love this Iron Man remix
