The Robot Group Inc.

The Robot Group is a non-profit 501(3c) corporation founded in the Spring of 1989 by a small group of Austin, TX artists and engineers who shared a common vision: utilizing technology to create and explore new mediums for art. The Robot Group has attracted a diverse audience of young and old, tech and non-tech alike. Works by the group and its members have been featured in: Maker Faire The Group's activities have inspired articles in Newsweek, Mondo 2000, boing-boing and FringeWare Review. We have also made appearances on ABC's Good Morning America and an episode of Invention on the Discovery Channel. Other TV appearances include the debut episode of Art Brigade, and the German program Kulture Report.

"Hi Suzette-- Sorry to take so long to welcome you to the Robot Group's meetup! I just posted a message, "Welcome to New Meetup members" that has a lot of information about the group. The group runs the gamut from the "electronically challenged" (yours truly included) to some pretty advanced engineers, but as an artist/sculptor trying to figure out how to make things move, I've found the group to be a great resource. Hope to see you at one of the meetings! Regards-- Robert"
