My name is Christopher Brasted. I can paint and draw, and I can solder and cut. For reasons which will always mystify me, I switched from engineering to illustration to art and back to engineering. This was over twenty years ago.

APRIL is my attempt to combine my artistic abilities and engineering skills into a coherent project, and Boutique Robots exists to present my personal take on combining art and automation.

My day job is not about art or engineering, except in a very loose and abstract way, but I believe that computing and creativity have a long way to go in the world, and am happy to add my contribution.
