 more images of Paro Mrs. Hirakawa: "Paro answers and looks at me when I call it. Then I feel communication with Paro." Nattie: "We still feel horrible just remembering Shelby. When I came across Shelby later in a box, I literally felt sick with guilt, just leaving him in there. When my husband saw what I was holding, his face just drained and he let out a panicked, "FUCK!" and tried to leave the room, but I wouldn't let him. Instead, we just both stared uncomfortably for a moment." Sherry Turkle: "You can see seniors chatting with robots, telling their stories, and feel positive. Or you can see people speaking to chimeras, showering affection into thin air, and feel that something is amiss." ovvl: "...don't take away my seal-doll unless you crank up the soma on my feed. (And give me a cigarette)." |

I finally found my old slides from the 90s (in milk crate buried under other milk crates full of other things from a long time ago) and got some of them scanned. Aaaah, dusty-old-art nostalgia.

We were going through the toy box the other day and I re-discovered this lovely lovely organizer. The red button is for wireless. If you push it, a spring is released and a plastic projectile shoots out of the top. On the back of the organizer there's a little plastic flap that covers a tiny pad of sticky notes. What you do is write a little message on a note, and fold it into the grooves on the plastic projectile. Then cram the projectile into the organizer and wait until you are in range of the person you want to communicate with. Then...fire up the wireless! It doesn't use wires. Be careful not to aim it at animals or people.
