It’s Good to be The Queen.

July 10th, 2007 by Mr Robotics

OK, I’m sure you know Brian Eno. He writes songs ‘n’ stuff.

Now, how cool would it be if Brian wrote, sang, recorded, and mixed a song about you?

Sorry, you have to be the queen of the robots to have that happen. And that means it only happens for our very own Missy SuicideBot (aka, Simone).

Yes, Brian wrote a song for her - click here to listen!

But it gets better.

A song about Simone needs a chorus. Backup singers are:

Brian Eno (Duh)
Danny Hillis (of Thinking Machines, Walt Disney Imagineering, Applied Minds, Long Now etc.)
Stewart Brand (Whole Earth Access, the WELL, LongNow, etc.)
David Rumsey (Cartography Associates, Luna Imaging, Long Now, etc.)
Peter Schwartz (Global Business Network, Long Now, etc.)
Alexander Rose (Simone’s solenoid, motor, and crack dealer from Inertia Labs (Robotics))

Top that. Just try.

The husbandly pride is exploding everywhere.

    [...] Though he wishes he was being serenaded by celebrities, turns out he’s been up to some major RPM building bots. We’ve mentioned the SWARM bots, which have been kicking some serious Rotor butt. But we returned the favor: last week we brought one out to the desert to see how it would do in the heat. Well, after some impromptu desert repair (featuring a heatsink fortuitously found kicking around on the floor of Rotormobile) the Orb did some fine fine rolling. And we met some cool folks out there as well. [...]
