INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Here a fun thing to look forward to next month
Simone Giertz, she of the shitty robots fame, will be appearing onstage at Disrupt SF (October 2-4) at the Moscone Center in San Francisco
The United States -based Swedish inventor has built a massive online following (currently at 1.92 million YouTube subscribers) with DIY
videos that examine technology and art through a whimsical lens
Giertz is probably best known for her &shitty& robotic creations, including arms that serve soup and breakfast, draw holiday cards and
apply lipstick — to hilariously uneven results
More recently, she had a verified viral hit when she busted out some power tools to turn her Tesla into a pickup truck
She&ll be joining us onstage to walk us through some of her most interesting creations, including The Every Day calendar
The project, which made nearly $600,000 on Kickstarter late last year, is designed to help motivate users into developing good habits, like
meditating, flossing or writing
Or, you know, eating churros.
Disrupt SF runs October 2 to October 4 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco
Giertz joins an outstanding lineup of speakers, including Kitty Hawk Sebastian Thrun, Admiral Mike Rodgers, Rachel Haurwitz of Caribou
Biosciences, and Marc Benioff, Box Aaron Levie and dozens more.
