Posted 20 Jun 2008 at 12:03 UTC by mwaibel Share This

In the second episode of Robots, the podcast for news and views on robotics, we interview Rob Wood, founder and director of the Harvard Microrobotics Lab. He gives us an insight into work on his robotic fly, which has been buzzing around the web for the past year. Outside the web Wood's fly has touched down in the MoMA as part of an exhibition on Design and the Elastic Mind. In the second part of this episode Paola Antonelli, the curator of the Department of Architecture and Design at the Museum of Modern Art, explains the robot's relevance in art and design. Tune in!
