Artbot's Taste in Film


Artbot loves the Far North. If anyone hears of human children in the Arctic in need of an Artbot, please let the Artbot know ASAP.
Artbot likes films in the Inuktituk language. Human Chicagoans can see The Necessities of Life at the Gene Siskel Film center on Friday, April 3. One night only!! Artbot will be there.
Humans may also rent The Fast Runner at their convenience. http://www.atanarjuat.com/
Both films star Natar Ungalaaq

Artbot Becomes a Star


Finally, Artbot stars in a film.
Supporting cast: P. Freire and Miss Gordon.

Absolutely Definitely


Place the human children in large elephantine costumes.
Do that, Pros Arts! Artbot approves of your methods!

What a mess!

First off, Artbot loves people who "create the space to remix categories." Hell, yes.
Those who "embrace creativity as an action without thought of profit!"
This makes Artbot's circuits feel warm.
Artbot doesn't like the fact that ascertaining exactly what Mess Hall is is a thoroughly postmodern adventure. All robots hate postmodernism. Regardless, the site seems to reflect the people in organization and design. You have to get your hands (claw) dirty searching through the site for meaning and answers. You have to dig. Web sites don't always have to be so clean and streamlined. Mess Hall's web site has not been updated recently, but it is trying to remix the categories on the web.
Continue on, Mess Hall! Artbot gives your site a grade of A.
Artbot Mood: Circuits warm like apple pie.

Chicago Art Dept. Web Site

Artbot loves arts organizations that have astrological signs. Chicago Art Department is a proud Capricorn, as stated on the myspace page. Golly gee, Artbot likes the sound of this band of human adults who seem to exhibit art,band together for classes, and organize artsy trips. Artbot may travel to NYC with these humans to take Polaroids of the city. I hope they have a robot-claw-friendly Polaroid camera.
The web site: www.chicagoartdepartment.org
It is quite a dandy. Artbot found it aesthetically pleasing. Nice, hip backgrounds. Straightforward and organized, too. Artbot never became frustrated while investigating this site, including links to youtube and myspace.
Artbot is starting to wonder... does Artbot's mood impact Artbot's web site reviews? Artbot has been programmed with moods and the need for sleep. This helps Artbot to empathize with human children.
CAD Site Grade: B+
Artbot Mood: Sleepy/Content
