Update as of November 2019: Maillardet’s Automaton is on view at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City in the exhibition “Making Marvels: Science & Splendor at the Courts of Europe” from Novemto March 1, 2020. However he managed the trip, landing at the loading dock of the Franklin Institute and into the hands of their mechanical engineers was as good a stroke of luck as he could have hoped for. The Brock family had a vague idea of the contraption when they donated it to the Institute in 1928, but not its true origin nor why it was so damaged. His journey wasn’t over yet, as somehow he made his way to Philadelphia and the Franklin Institute via the estate of a local steel magnate named John Penn Brock. Novel based on the videogame, NieR:Automata published with the English title. English Description: San Francisco : VIZ Media, 2018. Barnum, who may have had it on display at his museum in New York when a fire devastated the building in 1865. Title: NieR:Automata long story short / original story by Yoko Taro written by Jun Eishima translated by Shota Okui. There is some evidence that Maelzel then sold it to P.T. The boy-machine was a money-maker for Maillardet in its day but had been sold at some point to a 19th century showman named Maelzel, who exhibited it widely, including in the United States. Maillardet had built several automatons, including this one, in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Their “memory” is stored on brass discs called cams, which activate a series of linkages to enable precise and preordained movements.
He was a master of automatons (or automata), finely tuned and controlled mechanisms that perform rote-and sometimes elaborate-functions. The history of the world is an eternal cycle of rise. When the world was created by the original Chief God, monsters were slavering, shambling horrors that fed on the flesh of man. Monster girls are obsessed with dicks to the extent that they are obsessed with things that look a bit like dicks. Henri Maillardet was a Swiss-born watchmaker and mechanician, born in 1745. A Succubus Plan: Monsters become Monster Girls. The mystery of his origin was solved when the boy was wound, and he wrote out, at the bottom of one of the poems, “Ecrit par l’automate de Maillardet” – “Written by Maillardet’s automaton”. The boy was a writing and drawing automaton, capable of creating beautifully decorated poetry (in English and French) and charming drawings of Cupids, a three-masted ship, and a Chinese temple. It wasn’t until the puzzle pieces were reassembled that the machine revealed its identity.
A boy’s porcelain head and hands and a pile of brass springs, levers, and gears-it looked like an automaton that had been in a bar fight. In 1928, when Philadelphia’s Franklin Institute received a truckload of mangled and singed machine parts, they had no idea what it was.
