New Keepon/Spoon video!! Great synthesis of Japan + robots + rock music in this video:
Keepon is a Japanese Robot "designed to perform emotive and attentive exchange with human interactants (especially children)". If you want to see the original Keepon/Spoon video, click here. Also, this one is neat.
Edit: Just found an interesting article about this robot here. Apparently the robot runs software which can pick out the main beat in a piece of music, and it moves to that beat; i.e. it is not pre-programmed! Actual quote from article: "Robots that dance have enormous amusement potential."

That video was like so many of my dreams, except you couldnt see me in the back room making out with Kelly Clarkson.
I for one would pay anything to be able to host such happenin' robot dance parties.
