The Industrialization of Robotics
Robotics have always been one of the most fascinating parts of technology and industrialization. There are endless opportunities to accomplish with robotics. "Slowly Nyx writes light-emitting poetry in full darkness. Letter after letter the glowing text pours slowly and compact out of the machine"(http://www.gijsvanbon.nl/). Here is a video and an explanation of a type of robot that is being used to write letters on the cement what are glowing in the dark.
Famously we see here Walter Benjamin saying "they are just as compelled to undertake an apprenticeship as they were once when confronted with first nature"(Nextnature.net). Here we see him saying that people are to take these things and make them our second nature. Robotics is playing a huge role in society today and in the 1930s Benjamin wanted to make sure we were embracing our quickly advancing technological state. 
There is a robot that was made for the curiosity of the people. The name of the robot is "Dirk the homeless robot." He was an experiment and a successful one at that. People will continue to become very curious about all these different types of robotics coming to play in our society. The industrialization of robotics is changing not only the technological world, but also society in general.
"Electric Circus Is a collaboration between inventor Fred Abels and puppeteer Mirjam langemeijer. This collaboration has led to a unique form of street theater. With the help of modern techniques such as 'animatronics' together with masterful puppetry they create - indistinguishable from - animals and also a human!"(http://www.electric-circus.eu/). Here is a cool and unique way for two people to continue to use robots as entertainment in their lives and work.
