It has been a long while since an art project made me guffaw in laughter while conniving to tickle my interest for the macabre. Je te presente le chat helicoptiere, Orvillecopter. A stuffed cat crossed with an quadrotor that does exactly what you think it does.
In what I would consider the ultimate geek sign of love for ones pet, Bart Jansen turned his beloved pet into a flying lolcat of the skies when it was untimely struck down by a car. I don’t think I would be able to convince myself to stuff my dog for display, let alone convince my family.
An article has already come up with an interpretation of the Orvillecopter as a commentary on killer drones which do rain death upon selected targets instead of mortified laughter.
I propose a compromise.
Let’s stuff killer drones into the bodies of cats or sharks.
