ectocache for 03.21.2008: Robots ho!

Posted by Ross Rosenberg

Yesterday was Cthursday! We missed it ! For shame! Here’s some artwork by K. Brown as an apology.

The illustrious, world renowned Miss Cellania reminds you to wash your cephalopods.

Are you drawing comics for Marvel? Do you need reference for someone being attacked by a tentacle demon? Swipe it from an adult magazine! Thanks, bela!

Cyborg-freakin’-insects. Dammit, DARPA, what hast thou wrought? Thanks, kid icarus!

Rich Muller makes robots, which means he is a traitor and not to be trusted. They are nice robots though…

Photo: A robot with nipple hands… Sure, why not? Thanks, John!

Christopher Conte splits his time between designing artificial limbs for amputees and creating intricate, biomechanical sculptures using mostly found materials, like Singer sewing machine components.

The Lost Boys: A Futureshock Remix

Posted by Qais Fulton

Ah, the disaffected youth of The City; slack jawed and dead eyed, integrated cranial circuitry pumping away at obscene speeds as the world flickers around him, less real than the images dripped into his brain by a jack that only cost two weeks allowance. I can’t fucking wait.

Steam Nomads

Posted by Qais Fulton

Seated high upon his faithful boiler-steed, a steam nomad scours the landscape; hoping only to find a bit of respite on the blasted heath once covered in verdant vegetation, home to horses whose hindquarters only featured tank treads after a great darkness swept the land.

The Future Is, More Or Less, Now

Researchers at the University of Washington have developed a contact lens that integrates a biologically safe circuit into its design. The circuit will allow for a myriad number of possibilities such as giving pilots or drivers info on their speed projected onto their windshield or to help the vision impaired.

Of course, the lenses can also be applied to entertainment and communications purposes. They would allow videogame designers to completely immerse the player in their virtual world. One would be able to browse the internet on a floating display that only the wearer could see. I can only pray that these appear soon; I look forward to posting “Your Daily WTF”, knowing that, somewhere, perhaps on a park bench, someone is staring, an expression of pained shock and horror on their face, as people walk past wondering if, perhaps, someone should get them some medical attention.


Contact lenses with circuits, lights a possible platform for superhuman vision
