Automaton
Author(s): Gary Crew
Following his invention of the light bulb and recorded sound, Thomas Edison turned his genius to the invention of a doll which could speak and walk. When assembled the doll weighed almost 10 kilos and Edison buried this failure in the grounds of his factory. Here is a modern parable warning about the age of dehumanising automation. Ages 10+.
