It allows applications to build a data configurable robot which can interact with a two-dimensional (2D) landscape. RP1 is free software.

Why do you call it Rossum's Playhouse?

Frequently Asked Question for The Rossum Project and RP1 Rob...
Rossum's Playhouse is named in honor of Karel Capek's classic science fiction work Rossum's Universal Robots. In 1921, Capek's play introduced the term "Robot" (from the Czech word for "worker"). I also call Rossum's Playhouse "RP1" for short... an acronym which is useful since the full name is, well, a little too playful to be used in some circles. Dennis Jerz sent me a link to his page where he provides more information on the story and history of the play.

WHERE SHOULD I LOCATE MY PLAYHOUSE?

Playhouses, wooden play houses, playhouse FAQ
Ideally your playhouse should have a clear space at least 18" wide on all sides, if possible. This ensures easy access for both installation and future maintenance. In reality this is often not practical and at many sites it is not needed. A reduced clearance is often possible on one or two sides. If the space around your playhouse is restricted remember to allow for any roof overhang. You should also cut back or remove any nearby shrubs and trees. Remember to allow for future growth.

What have people said about the Ziggy Stardust album and David Bowie in this period?

The Ziggy Stardust Companion - Frequently Asked Questions
quot;If they are still putting phonograph records in time capsules then we would like to recommend the new Bowie for inclusion. David's latest full-scale invasion of the mind is the telling saga of a rock and roll stars trek through a garden of unearthly delights. The songs are uniformly brilliant and the production by Bowie and Ken Scott is virtually flawless. It's an electric age nightmare. It's a cold hard beauty. It's another example of the shining genius of David Bowie.
