Collector's Corner #8

Track #16 on Mune Mud's Sleep State F album from 1997 was called "Biobot." From where did the inspiration for this song come?

Collector's Corner 08

This page is from the July 1997 issue of National Geographic. It is from an article called "Robot Revolution" that discusses the different fields of science that robot technology has been applied and new developments in robot technology. The above scan shows a picture of an insect with a circuit board attached to its back to control its movements. The bold type on the right side of the page explains the picture. In that explanation is the term "biobot" and that is where the title and theme of the song came from.

A copy of this magazine now resides in the Library Wing of the Metal XOR Studio Museum.
