Uncanny Valley

"When it's almost perfect, all you see are the flaws"

For all the Sci-Fi freaks out there. The Uncanny Valley. Interesting concept.
Credit to Agent reddy and his fetishes for all things not human. I still think the most revolting thing I've seen is the dude in tarams who first scratches his crotch and then makes Molaga Bajji. I'm sorry I can't find a wiki link for this one.

And the millions of flies around the bajji and of course, his crotch...

DISGUSTING!!! still tasty ;)

Anyway, the wiki article is brilliant and the concept is killer.

Kinda analogous to the electrostatic and the repulsive forces that operate in particles.

Bicentennial Man is a good example of this, I think. Both the short story and the movie.
