My name is Matt Dixon. I’m an illustrator working in the games industry. I also like to paint pictures of robots, a series of images I call ‘Transmissions’. Do you remember my previous post on Bored Panda?
I’m often asked about the meaning behind the paintings, but I don’t have an answer. The world of the robots is slowly being revealed one image at a time and any meaning is as mysterious to me as to anyone else. I love to learn what meaning if any, the viewers find in the images. Please let me know what you think.
I’ve been producing this work for more than a decade. The images have so far been collected into four books with a fifth volume, Transmissions 5, currently funding on Kickstarter.

Yes but it also makes the robot look in sync with nature. Like he is a natural object instead of manmade.

Probably cause against conventional wisdom the fuckn unworthy, idiotic 1/3 are the angels: preying on unicorns whom are 100% human makes you think you are exalted! You look like a poes and your name makes you look even more pathetic! Being invisible and superfast doesn't ensure you're super-safe! What it does is show how p0es fuckn stoopid you are! You are one of those whom I'll wait in with a harpoon, 2 bottles of Captain and a bag of weed and crystal. Somewhere you have to land and show yourself! You, like a scroll of all enlightened dumbf*ck angels unbeknowst, will find out how your p0es useless you actually are vs human, devil, time and naturally, the Allmighty! Stop saying things you will regret, I swear this in God's name! N!

I love how you're creating art not because it has meaning, but because you can. Keep it up!
