Vivisection # 1 Candidate

The funky dancing turtle will be the first patient.
I am particularlily intrigued in its movement, curious to see the skeleton beneath the skin. I am reminded of the scene in terminator when the skin is peeled back to reveal the metal exoskeleton beneath. Perhaps within the dancing turtle an alien structure will emerge. Cant wait.
I noticed the 'Funky Dancing Turtle is a toy built from Gemmy Industries Inc., the makers of "Big Mouth Billy bass" an animatronic device that clamied some fame on TV.


I came across a work from Heron Alexandrinus, a mathmatician, physicist and Engineer from 10 to 70 AD Greece. Here is a reconstruction of Heron's Automata 'Hercules and the dragon" from Giovanni Battista Aleoti 1589. Perhaps there is a longer history to these 'automata' then i thought.
