For those who do not immediately get the pun in the title, think of the recent movie, "I, Robot." ... Of course the movie was based (very loosely) on the classic science fiction series by Isaac Asimov. Nor was he the first to use it. The Adam Link series by the writing and artist team of Earl and Otto Binder (Eando Binder) was also entitled "I, Robot" in the 1930s (Asimov did not steal the title, his publisher chose it). ... Anyway, as ever, I learn various 3D animation techniques I doing shorts like this and I enjoy sharing them with you. --Ralph Roberts]]></description><category>1VIDeo Productions</category><category>Western North Carolina</category></item><item><title>Some Mike Resnick Books</title><pubDate>Fri, 23 Apr 2010 10:20:25 GMT</pubDate><link>http://exposureroom.com/5bb561ebfc92422388f5eae05392bb95/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://exposureroom.com/5bb561ebfc92422388f5eae05392bb95/</guid><description><![CDATA[Our publishing company has done numerous titles by award-winning SF author Mike Resnick.

Bob's banker informs him of immediate foreclosure on the farm. Men in Black types from the government threaten him. His old girlfriend now an FBI agent shows up - his neighbor, her mom, has snitched on him. An old enemy, then a senator now the president, has cut off his military retirement and he's totally broke.<br><br>On the larger scene, the crooked Director of the CIA plans to take over the world, starting with eliminating Bob. Four rogue alien civilizations are aghast at what Bob is raising and plan an invasion. And the premiere law enforcement agency in the universe, the Galactic Patrol is investigating.
