Sara's mother and sister visited us on the weekend of February
23rd. The girls had their hair done at Christina's Spa. They all came
back looking even more lovely than usual.
After their spa session we stopped by the Purdue Armory and caught the tail end of the 2008 Rube Goldberg High School Regionals.
On February 24th we had some people over to make pizza's. They were delicious and fun as always.
Just last night we stopped by campus to hear Artist Ken Rinaldo from Ohio State talk about his Autotelematic Spider Bots. He has some weird artist ideas about trans-species communication and what constitutes consciousness, but the art was interesting.
The spider-bots seemed to do an OK job of avoiding one another and the walls, but it was evident that he hadn't worked out a number of important engineering problems such as battery life. I suppose that is why he is an artist and not an engineer.
Photos of the spider-bots are in the usual place.
