<h1>The Church of Robotron</h1>
<h2>2014 Testing and Training Facility</h2>
<p>With only 70 years remaining until the robot uprising crisis of 2084, <a href="http://churchofrobotron.com">The Church of Robotron</a> desperately announces that it will be conducting testing and training operations at the <a href="http://www.jetsoncreative.com/diode">Diode Gallery</a>, <a href="https://goo.gl/maps/oQa1R">514 NW Couch, Portland, OR 97209</a>. Window altar services will be available starting September 14th, 2104. Mutant liturgy will be held on <b>Wednesday, September 24th, 2014</b> and <b>(First) Thursday, October 2nd, 2014</b>, both at 7pm.
Other times by appointment.</p>
<p>The installation centers around three (3) altars that will test and train the public by subjecting them to a multitude of environmental discomforts while playing augmented versions of the 1982 8-bit twitch arcade game Roboton 2084. Participants will take up the two (2) eight-way joysticks to battle both on-screen Robotrons and real-world stimuli manifested from in-game events. These futile efforts will be celebrated and archived on a videographed leaderboard.</p>
<p>Church organizers will be conducting research and performing additional tests to determine if the mutant savior walks among us today. Devotees and skeptics alike are invited to take in a recorded (or live!) sermon from a church prophet and to learn more about Robotron prophecy and culture in the reading room.</p>
<p>The last human family must survive, and it is through experiential Error, deep understanding of Futility, and the Mutant Savior’s anti-robot chest-mounted turreted lasers that our human culture can continue to thrive.</p>
<h2>About The Church of Robotron</h2>
<p>The Church of Robotron is an avant-fanatical post-apocalyptic videogame cyber-religion based in the 1980s but born in the 2000s in Portland, OR. The CoR has installed/performed at ToorCamp in Neah Bay, held public devivals in Portland, and celebrated with private screenings and public swearing over low scores.</p>

<p>Diode is Portland’s flagship art gallery dedicated to electronic and and electro-interactive works.</p>
