Date Update: Robot Comedy with Heather Knight this SATURDAY!

Department / Organization: Computer Science

Join us for Dr. Heather Knight's Robot Comedy Show at Mines this SATURDAY at 6:30 PM in CTLM 102.

We are pleased to (re)announce Dr. Heather Knight's Robot Comedy Show at Mines this SATURDAY at 6:30 PM in CTLM 102.

(Previous announcements listed the wrong date, please note the show is SATURDAY and not Friday)

If this is your first time hearing about this show, please join us this Saturday for an evening of stories and robot-assisted standup-comedy from Dr. Heather Knight!

Heather Knight is a triple threat:
(1) she is a roboticist who has studied, taught, and worked at MIT, CMU, Stanford, OSU, NASA JPL, and Aldebaran;
(2) she is a comedian who created some of the first robot-delivered standup routines; (3) she is an artist with a wide range of past accolades: producer of the Robot Film Festival, organizer of the Robot Fringe Festival, TED talk speaker, featured artist
at the Smithsonian, and winner of a British Video Music Award for OK GO’s “This Too Shall Pass” music video featuring a two-floor Rube Goldberg Machine.

Opening for Heather is Minor Adjustments: The Improvised Musical, a local improv troupe that will perform a fully improvised Broadway musical inspired by a story from Heather.

Heather's performance is co-sponsored by the Hennebach Program, Mines Activity Council, and CS Department.

We hope to see you there!

(Confusion came from the fact that Heather is performing /in Denver/ this Friday. Those hoping to attend Heather's Mines performance who cannot attend Saturday can email twilliams@mines.edu for a discount code to her Friday show)
