Project Yorick

Remember last year when Brian Kane installed Alexa in his Billy Bass? Mike McGurrin has taken that idea one step further -and creepier- by using a Halloween decoration skull with a moving mouth to be the face of th internet-enabled personal assistant Alexa.

If The Addams Family were a sitcom today, this would be their household assistant instead of Thing, who had no voice. In this followup video, McGurrin tries to trip his skull up, but she's always a step ahead.

Why does that make me think of the officer who praised his men for shooting a non-violent demonstrator in the head with rubber bullets?

And now I see people trampling each other in panic to get away, those who got trampled down getting second degree burns in addition and the military reassuring everybody, that's it's really necessary and totally safe. Who cares about burns or blisters, they don't last long anyway.

Sometimes I wonder about the scientists who develope those things...
