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.

    the fact that there's an outlet in the tree makes me kind of sad.

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

    I love this picture, each time I feel tired or sad, there is nothing like mother nature to recharge your batteries

    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!
