Arghh!
1 of 12 from Robots: From junk to functional art (pictures)
Artist Tal Avitzur makes ornamental robots and robotic night lights out of junk he finds in California scrapyards. He works with brass, bronze, and copper to fashion bots that are out of this world.
One of Avitzur's more striking creations, Arghh!, is 31-inch-tall night light, but the artist has imagined it as a "frustrated submarine lab tech." The bot was created from an old Japanese voltmeter, bicycle cranks, various brass parts, and blinking LEDs.
