> Hi WHY2025 Deco team,

> 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).

> 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)

> So. would this project fit your idea of art / deco?

> 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)

> 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)

> 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?

> 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 (even up to the point where we developed a tilting mechanism to get the
> 750kg weighing monster sideways through a 1.8m door opening).

> Cheers,

> Edwin
