This augmented robot stencil is spreading the love . This was one of the first robots I used to spray around Melbourne back in 2002 - 04. Back then, the robots were a metaphor for the repetitive task of working as I used to do hard rubbish & tree mulching for the local council. The week day cycle seems to be endless & the robots were the perfect outlet , like a release of work related stress with creativity.
