what's inscribed on the side? a plan of the surrounding area?

Naughty robot, out after dark. What if the villagers come and burn it?

elaine: 6th Apr 2006 - 14:39 GMT

no, jeeff, i don't think that was in the paolozzi headspace, it was more a style thing images.google.co.uk/images?q=eduardo+paolozzi&hl=en&btnG=Search+Images

catherine, he does look lonely, doesn't he. my view is he is lost and is waiting for his GREAT BIG MUMMY AND DADDY to come and get him! now THAT would be a photo opportunity.

elaine: great links p!

He also looks like he's wringing his hands anxiously.

elaine: he definitely does have an anxious look.
