1.1 Gather servo motors, ARM board, steel bars, RTV silicone.
1.2 Construct a life-size robot Touhou.
1.3 While the others in your group are assigned to solve the ontological representation, machine learning and NLP, you are tasked with the machine kinetics subsystem of the Touhou.
1.3.1 As a foundational formalism of the kinetic architecture would you use a Chomsky syntactical productions formalism with unification, or a Markov/Probabilistic formalism, explain your rationale. The formalism must not just provide gait but also express the sequencing of movement through symbolic representation, and allow for a range of activities from dance to martial arts.
1.3.2 How would you go about gathering your training set.
1.4 Craft, conjure necessary spells and enter the definitions into the Touhou REPL.
Deliverables: Working robot Touhou
