SURVIVAL RESEARCH LABORATORIES


The Survival Research Laboratories events are pretty intense having metal on metal banging and crashing at each other or just the enthusiasm of blowing things up. Survival Research Laboratories is a work of art these men have made just for the fun of playing with medal and making them look so awesome. The idea of having a show that catches on fire would be so thrilling and fun to catch an audience attention. The fantasy that the Survival of Research Laboratories is a world that anything can go without having any one to tell you you cant destroy. It seems as if something likes this can be a great way to relief any stress out of just breaking things. It’s a great fantasy to have an open field of enjoyment and pleasure to others and ourselves. Survival Research Laboratories reminds me so much of The Monster Jam Show that I would always go to when they come to Houston. I love going to those shows and watching these enormous trucks compete against each other for a trophy. When the trucks have a freestyle competition they each get to make their own tricks. The best tricks that leads the audience with excitement is when the spin at a three hundred and sixty degree turn, drive on just two wheels, and especially when they flip over on a trick. The difference with Survival Research Laboratories is mostly using robots, fire, and electricity. The Monster Trucks have huge trucks, dirt, hills, and timer to the finish line. I don’t necessarily believe that the people who created the Survival Research Laboratories to promote violence at the people more or less creating a show that people can enjoy watching robots do pretty cool things that artists made and having their art work destroyed. Its something that could only be done outside where its nothing but free space and no one can get hurt being behind safely watching. The robots are something that artist build and create a master piece that they choose to show an audience that they can actually move and damage things that will impress these people and become amazed by it and not to make them think its something that they want people to feel scared nor cautious because its something that should be done with professionals who have lots of practice with it and experience. Im not so sure as to why they decided tobstage a huge event in Amsterdam rather than Tripolirlibya, Kandahar, or Afghanistan maybe because they thought it would either be safer or it was a more reliable in place and they probably get more of an audience being out there. I believe that they typically will get a group of audience who don’t mind all the loud and extreme noise and commotion that is presented. Most of the time it would be your typical high school or college students that would want to go out and watch a show like that.
