So, what’s the world been up to the last week or so? Well, quite a bit actually. And from the looks of things we can safely feel unsafe about how the robots seem to be slowly gaining ground. There’s an emotion-reading robot in the works, the Robot Film Festival hits NYC this weekend, robots are sweating, drawing, and touring with Bjork . But it’s not all robots, the week also saw Animal Collective psych out Brooklyn, tattoos get animated, and pop get hypnagogic. As well as…

· Jean-Luc Godard proclaims film is dead. Long live… games?

· Facial puppetry: Prank video calling could become reality with real-time generic face tracking providing avatars to hide behind.

· First they came for our manufacturing industries, then they came for our domestic chores, now robots are after our emotions.

· You might think that new coat you bought is pretty fly, but it’s not a Monty Burns LED video coat, is it?

· You can finally turn your iPad into a retro arcade machine.

· Wearable tech gets personal: Tanya Marie Vlach is on Kickstarter looking for funding to grow a new eye.

· Watch 60 minute documentary Cyperpunk which features an interview with the man who coined the term, William Gibson.

· Insane Clown Posse miracle of the week: Magnetic Drawing Machines.
