| The karakuri dolls, often
called as the robot form the Edo period, confirmed the huge influence
of toys in modern mechanics and robotics. The wooden automaton was
an essential starting point, manipulated thorough time, and adapted
to its society and surrounding environment. This is the beginning
of the so called "robot age". Toys were experimentation
of technology. Toys had been perceived as art with the essence of
science. It teaches the base of art, to entertain or to give pleasure
to the audience. Untitled Wood 30 x 20 x 11 cm |
