Maybe you’ve seen Troy Rogers pushing his music-making robots along the Lakewalk in Duluth: silver suit, gas mask, teddy bear affixed to his torso. Rogers, who performs as Robot Rickshaw, started as a composer - then he began incorporating robots into his work. He tours around the country presenting his work at schools, galleries, art spaces and for robot-minded folks.
News Tribune reporter Christa Lawler and editor Barrett Chase sat down with Rogers to talk about the evolution of Robot Rickshaw.
