softies at coney island


photos from coney island with anne

I realized a couple of days after a conversation with mav that I actually never answered one of her questions.
“why robots?” 
It was something I have never tried to answer, but as that question somersaulted in my unconscious, I realized why. 
Why robots. 
I felt with robots I couldn’t make a mistake.  I mean there are really no rules. 
And so I realized without naming it that I needed to try and make something that I couldn’t get wrong. 
Because that is hard for me – the not getting it wrong. 
I fight that battle on a daily basis.  The 'letting go' battle.  Letting go and thinking something is enough. 
A robot, for me at least, represents freedom. 
And that is quite a gift.  So thanks to mav for asking, so I could finally realize why.

Tomorrow photos of coney island sans softies…
