It appears that even robots sent into the Dead Zone at Fukishima have a limited life expectancy, in the vicinity of three hours.

The entire interview, which roams widely through the toxic ethical, political and scientific vapors that envelop Fukishima, is worthy of close consideration. Below, we offer a montage of excerpts, with images added by DP: Bogdan Rata’s vivid exploration of possible shapes for future neo-humanoid mutations.
