Last night was the opening event of Roböxotica
Festival in Vienna, Austria. Roböxotica is a celebration of the
underappreciated art of cocktail robotics. Held annually for the last 12
years, the festival includes an exhibition of robots, gadgets, gizmos,
installations and heavy machinery built with to get people drunk. There
are also talks and performances, presentations and symposiums as well as
a published wrap-up and a closing event in which awards are presented
in categories such as “Best use of fire.”Co-organized by monochrom and shifz, it’s traditionally been held at Vienna’s prestigious Museumsquartier
but due to increased attendance was moved to Mo.ë, a larger venue /
warehouse space that is rumored to have at one time been a factory that
produced medals of honor for the Nazis. At last night’s opening there
were over 1000 attendees packed in, making it the largest Roböxotica
ever.
