LOST_BOTS_2011_25p_H264.mov

As a part of the Voltfestivalen, 25 specially manufactured robots invaded central Stockholm and central Uppsala May 7 2011. The robots can do nothing but go forward. But they are very cute and they carry signs saying "Help! We are lost. Please lead us to the Voltfestival". Voltfestivalen trust people to pity the robots and to help them to their destination. We often think of robots made to help humans -- but still we fear them. But these robots need our help and they have much more reason to fear humans. It´s the goodness of people that make them fulfill their task, not any advanced CPU, GPS or AI. Meet them at Voltfestivalen June 11 at Uppsala Konsert & Kongress.
