Gadgets are overwhelmingly concerned with immediacy and functionality, but a production of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream at Texas A&M University reminds us that technology, when applied creatively, can be timeless and transcendent.

Amy Hopper, the play’s director, cast one autonomous, military-grade flying robot and five smaller remote control devices as fairies in Shakespeare’s comedy. “To see them flying, spinning and bouncing through the air just adds to the magic and mystery of the world Shakespeare created,” she explained.

I must admit that i find this short clip AMAZING, especially the point where the ‘fairy’ lands on the actresses hand.

I for one welcome our new robot fairy ‘lovies’
