Glad to have seen the extraordinary Swedish films "The Emigrants" (1971) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Emigrants_(film) and "The New Land" (1972) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_New_Land by Jan Troll https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan_Troell in the last few days ... (both in The Criterion Collection - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Criterion_Collection). Both take place from about 1844-1862.
Swedish identity, the American frontier, religious freedom, leaving persecution in the old world to come to freedom in the new world, themes of sexuality, questions of culture, re Sweden, America, Native Americans, are all significant among so much more. Am curious further about the role of the 1960s and 1970s in this film.

Opening llfe-size art, sculpture and potentially robotics' worlds with Lego robotics
- "The Art of the Brick" (Carnegie Science museum in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania)
Appreciated the scaling of Lego to human size, appreciated too Lego in a museum as art exhibit, as well as the art itself (e.g. sometimes as few as ~5 Lego brick colors to represent a painting Rembrandt, or The Mona Lisa), and also the Lego culture this art further represents.
Was surprised there was no Lego robotics.
Wondering how to head in a Robotics' direction, and even re representing Angela and Victor's Yoga, movement, inner body re asanas, body minds, as well as teachings, vision and envisioning ... with Lego Robotics + ...

Interesting to see that Sawaya developed his career for happiness in Lego Art and sculpture, after having been unhappy as a lawyer apparently ... will post a picture of this sign from the exhibit and other pictures of his art ...

Was a little unclear where MIT and the COMPUTERIZED DESIGN for these Lego sculptures could have played a role in the making of these ... in this Carnegie Science museum exhibit in Pittsburgh, PA.

Am curious too where creative Art Robotics in a 3D virtual world - emerging from developments with Brick Street View into Google Street View in a SINGLE Realistic Virtual Earth - and especially for everything, e.g music, STEM, archaeology, architecture, history, robotics, surgery, brain science, ... the art and robotics of all of these, will emerge creatively and flourish
