Boilerplate: putting the kettle on

It’s sort of like Zelig meets Iron Man, by way of the Tin Woodsman. It’s Boilerplate: History’s Mechanical Marvel.

Is it a graphic novel? A faux Dorling Kindersleyâ„¢ book? Watch this promo video of an ultra-nifty idea that’s very nicely done, combining classic illustration techniques and computer effects.

  1. No, I was afraid of the lamp AFTER that dream. No, I don’t believe in close encounters; it was just a scary dream. Say, guess who LIKES “Boilerplate?” Molly! She thinks he’s “adorable.” Looks like he’s got another fan. I have to admit, it is a cute idea, and very well done.

  2. Boilerplate is SUPER-CREEPY! Remember that scary dream I used to talk about when we were little in Wisconsin, Dougie? The one where I floated up from my bed and you ran across the room to pull me back down? THAT’S what the thing looked like. I KID YOU NOT! It was BOILERPLATE! I’m sure you won’t post this. Once again, art imitates life!
