Variety of work that begun with Lost in Space: Robby and is moving toward an opera.
Lost in Space: Robby consists of 4 tape recorders. Each machine plays a single word of Robby the robot’s catchphrase – that does not compute – from the Sci-Fi series Lost in Space. The pauses between each repetition are regular but different for each word, causing the words to fall in and out of sync.
