As the vision for the RoBob project is finally starting to gel, it has grown into a desire to create an entire world or back-story.  A call-back to the sci-fi films and TV shows of the 50s and 60s.  Though before my time, it seems to have been, perhaps, a more innocent time when kids could still tune in for a sense of wonder and to fire their imaginations.  As the Arts and creative thinking are increasingly marginalized in favor of what I feel is social or societal programming, most modern entertainment strikes me as overly market-researched and inspires little to no thinking or imagination; just consumption.  I hope to try to overcome that to some degree with this project.  So I will be developing a fictional back-story for the RoBob character (https://atomicrobotbob.blogspot.com/) alongside the factual one.
