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:The 2001 hit movie Spy Kids - Insomniac with Dave Attell - Nuts and Volts Magazine - Dorkbot Austin - SERVO Magazine - First Night Austin celebration - Mansion OF Terror Haunted House - Austin Childrens Museum

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.

"This is a wonderful group to go and learn, talk, network and create. The sky is the limit (actually it is yourself that is the limiting factor). The members help when they are asked, but you have to have the initiative to create. Help is there if you need it, but it takes some effort on your own part. That is the beauty of this group." - Denise Scioli

"All I saw was lot's of ambitious talent. That's a good thing. Good job Verne - meeting held together." - Markus S
