<p>I have a fun art project to propose for WHY2025. Last year I
developed a robot-house which was both set and character in a
theatre play, did pop-up performances and was exhibited as 'art
piece'. I think it can be a fun addition to the festival. It is
reasonably large (2x5 m base, 5 m high when extended). It has big
illuminated eyes, can drive around, stretch it legs (the house is
mounted on a hydraulic scissor lift) etc. (see pictures).</p>
<p>There is however one snag. I would really like to live in it
during the festival (so I don't mind driving it around on a
central spot every now and then, but I would like to station the
house at night at a village (I'm via a different route part of the
Fabacademy/Fabrication village)</p>
<p>So. would this project fit your idea of art / deco?</p>
<p>Would it be possible perhaps to organise things with locating the
Fab-Village in such way that it is reasonably close to a road to
the festival grounds (so I can drive there with the house and
entertain people there as well)</p>
<p>I typically use my camper van as backup/storage/repair shop, and
am on the waiting list for a camper spot. This is probably not
going to happen, so is there a different combination to make?
(other than putting house on camp ground, camper on parking spot,
bring a folding bike)<br>
</p>
<p>And, finally, would it be possible to organise a power socket in
our village as back-up for when I cannot get the solar panels to
work and wind-power is letting us down?</p>
<p>I can provide a technical rider with RF frequencies used for
control, wind/weather/mud conditions etc. - we did some pretty
exhaustive testing last year <i>(even up to the point where we
developed a tilting mechanism to get the 750kg weighing monster
sideways through a 1.8m door opening).</i></p>
<p>Cheers,</p>
<p>Edwin<br>
