Prompt:
Design and model a stylized machine. The machine must have no distinct human facial features, no legs, and no wheels.

Brief:
The goal of this project was to depict a machine, designed for a specific task, experiencing the spark of emotion. I chose to explore a childish form of love. The story follows a recycling robot who stumbles upon an inanimate trash can covered with graffiti-drawn female features and glued-on googly eyes. Mistaking it for another robot, he awkwardly attempts to flirt, bringing a touch of innocence and charm to the interaction.
