Among many things, Dennis Hong is an award-winning roboticist, a magician, a best selling author, and a master chef.  Robotics (his "day job," as he puts it) has won him spots on Popular Science's "Brilliant 10" list, Purdue University's "40 under 40," a place on the TED main stage, and get this - the coveted Louis Vuitton Cup Best Humanoid Award.

The all-star roboticist stops by Innovation Crush to dish on his personal philosophies, squash the fear of the machines, riff on science education, his experience as a contestant on Master Chef, and tell us what ties all his many sides together. Oh, and he also built a car for the blind to drive. ;) Feat. guest host, Paula Miranda.

#80:  Dennis Hong - Robots, Magic, and Happiness

When he was only 12, Dimitri Chatzis built his own large 3D printer that he consequently used to build, two years later, a big humanoid and highly sophisticated talking robot. “Troopy” is one of the only six similar robots -based on the InMoov ecosystem- in the world. Dimitri is from the northern Greek town of Kavala and still a freshman in High School. He travelled to Athens, along with his robot “Troopy”, in order to take part in the Athens Science Festival during 2016 and found the time to talk to us about his passion for robotics, his love for research and his plans for the future. We’re pleased to say that “Troopy” contributed to the interview with a few words of his own.  Interviewed by Yannis Rizopoulos for Tech Talks Central.

V nove zvočne razsežnosti bodo 13. novembra zapluli ajdovski punkrockerji Elvis Jackson. Uresničili bodo dolgoletno željo obogatiti svojo muziko s pihali in trobili! Elvisi, prvič v Izštekanih!

Izštekani Elvis Jackson (spot)

Komad Geronimo je nastal v navalu glasbenega adrenalina, ki ga najlažje povezujemo z občutkom prostega padanja oziroma prvinskega stika z naravo pri katerem je pomeben le trenutek v katerem se nahajamo, zato tudi naslov “Geronimo”. Govori o trenutkih osvobojenosti duha od vsakdanjih težav in odgovornosti, s katerimi se srečujemo. "Ko veter ti polepša obraz, spet veš da živ si in imaš čas, da najdeš vse stvari, ki si jih že poznal." Opisuje ljubezen, ki traja in ne potrebuje vsakdanjega osebnega stika saj povezanost deluje na veliko višjem nivoju. "Vem, kamorkoli grem, najdem te nekje, kjer oba sva kot da sva doma."
