    Pittsburgh's Hyperactive Technologies

    "The vision system in Hyperactive Bob essentially scans the parking lot for incoming cars. It then cross-references traffic patterns against data about the restaurant—the bell curve of orders, the time of day, cooking times, the current amount of food in the restaurant's warming bins—and issues cooking orders to the employees manning the grill or the deep fat fryer. There isn't a mechanical humanoid assembling chicken sandwiches behind the counter. Instead, Hyperactive Bob combines machine intelligence with human activity."

    Flower
    by Mathew Bevins

    As nature evolves, its selection of who will carry on to the future becomes more and more selective. Those who adapt and embrace change will survive, while the rest are left to extinction.

    Who I Am and What I Want
    By David Shrigley

    "Ostracized from society. Here, amongst the trees, is who i am and what i want." David Shrigley explores the concepts of wants and needs and relates them to nature. In this animated piece, the main character decides he wants to live a life with the animals in nature. In nature, it's survival of the fittest, everyone fends for themselves and what someone else wants or thinks means absolutely nothing here.
