Edison m216

Forty-three bicycle parts, six drill bits, drill chuck, double gear, two indicator dials, two wing nuts, four springs, two washers, three nuts, bolt, copper, bronze.

Edison was custom made-to-order: The client wanted a robot to emote the moment when one’s been up all night trying to solve a problem and then the answer comes. I created Edison’s feet so that he could tip back in a ‘eureka moment’.
