Knewt at Beep Beep Gallery

Knewt makes an appearance at the opening of Beep Beep gallery in Midtown.

I went to the Beep Beep gallery opening and displayed some robots and cards to promote our club. It's a small space with a cool sign off Ponce between downtown and Virginia Highlands. There were easily 100 people there. There was food and drinks and music. It was quite a party. There were about 10 to 15 artists represented. Knewt and "entourage" sat on a table with a stack of AHRC cards. The party was still going on at 11:30 when I packed them up.

keith, thanks for the forward and the cool email. people really liked your robots alot. i'm glad you had a good time.

First and formost I'ld like to recognise Knewt's team members, Stuart Rolf and Bob Baxter for the fine work that made Knewt possible. We ran 3 motion routines on the parallax board that proved that the robot could move about and stand on one foot without falling down. The "not falling down" I think was the "clincher".

The Rally overall was a lot of fun, there was a fine array of robots present and I'm proud for Knewt to be recognized by such a prestegious group. Thank you AHRC for such a fine event.
