Cardboard Robots Sat 28th of August By Willuknight. 06/07/09, 01:59 pm |
| Ok, the placement date is 28th of August.
Robot building on the Saturday the 14th and Tuesday and Thursday the two weeks before the placement date, at my house (in Riccarton).
Please send me a message if you would like my address and are keen to help out.
I will provide all cardboard, please bring your own tape and any help on the saturday to help move robots into the city from Riccarton would be great!
see here for photos of last years event:
http://willu.net/photo_galleries/index.php?f=robots -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Previous event:
- Spoiler:
On the Tuesday / Wednesday 28th and 29th of July, I invite people to come over to my house, and make card board robots with me. I will have a varitety of materials avaliable including lots of boxes, Card board tubes and duct tape.
On Saturday the 8th of August, we will go on an early morning mission (about 7am) to install these robots into the center of Cashel St Mall (or around that area).
Robots should be distinctive and freestanding and structually study. They must also be able to stand up to a gust of wind, or be able to be affixed.
Dates: Tues/Wed 28th and 29th - All Day (from 10am), Saturday 8th August 7am - noon Bring: I will have some materials, but anything extra you want to bring would be welcome. I will have stuff like Saws and cutting knifes, and a gluegun, but you may want to bring your own glue gun. Bring Paint / decorative stuff if you have it. Bring Ducttape if you can afford it, spare wool or cloth if you want to use it.
People that would be able to help transport robots via car from my garage to the city would be greatly appreciated.
Think "IMPACT" -
PS Assume any robot you will create will get damaged / thrown out.
PPS This project is not an official CCC event and has nothing to do with cosplay

| Its anytime on that tues/wed so before or after school or work or in the evening, it doesnt matter.
It will only take about an hour or so to make a semi decent robot. |

| This is street sculpture. They don't have to be wearable, we're just going to put them at various places in town and then enjoy people's reactions |

| I have a station wagon, and access to a trailer.
I'm going to assume between the people taking part and with some parents help, we can get them all into town.
If you don't have a car, don't worry - we'll get your robot to the ball someway |

| since zoids and full metal panic actually ^^ but superarmy seems to be teaching me on gundam 00 *damnnnnitttttt* bokurano was cool though. half way through, too predictible *like aeriths death* and left nothing delicious but chizuru's story was sad. extremly. i concede to that T^T |

| FMP totally counts as gooey love stuff in my eyes. and Zoids is Pokemon + metal. >.<
i liked it for the character development. and for the fact that it doesn't rely on funny hairstyles and such to make it amazing.
