Mark Richards/Computer History Museum Back at home, the Sutherland brothers worked on their own versions of light-seeking robots, using surplus parts their engineer-father helped them to source in New York City. For Sutherland, engineering design has a strong aesthetic dimension. The reason? Aesthetics, he explains in his oral history.
