Here is a sociology academics diorama about the fictional giant A.I. warrior-robot Scorponok (a menace who transforms into a deadly scorpion and also an ominous fortress-like structure).
Scorponok represents modernism fears, so I wanted to construct a an 'Orwellian lesson' about this 'postmodern avatar.'
This little "Mr. Wizard"-esque blurb was inspired by the engineering-rapture films Tron and Outland.
How do you feel about industrialization under 'TrumpUSA'? Somehow, I feel we must be wary of political sarcasm in this age of consumerism/commerce (especially since we've elected a pronounced capitalism-baron as our President). Besides, isn't 'architectural capitalism' more fun?

"My name is Professor Nash, and welcome to my government-sanctioned MIT course about the sociology and philosophical mechanics of the fictional robot Scorponok (from the A.I. fantasy-adventure franchise Transformers). The Trump Administration wanted MIT professors to teach a course such as this to prepare students for a new world requiring scholars to be knowledgeable about 'ambitious engineering.'
Scorponok represents civilization ambitions gone awry and pedestrian mobility become deadly and polluting and therefore is an obvious Orwellian figure.
Scorponok is a robot, since he characterizes the adaptability of malice and warlike intentions in a modern world governed more or less by competitive instincts, and therefore, he reminds us of the general psychological and brain-process qualities associated with lethal priorities (e.g., terrestrial domination).
We may compare Scorponok to other civilization-emblematic comic book characters/avatars such as Serpentor (a genetically-engineered 'super-emperor' from G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero), Black Manta (a DC Comics underwater mad-scientist and nemesis of the heroic Aquaman), and Master-Control or 'MCP' (the evil mastermind computer from the virtual-reality sci-fi film Tron).
The purpose of this Scorponok evaluation is to make you students of this modern age more comfortable with evaluating the sociological totems that highlight civilization's new 'prioritization beacons' for adaptation ferocity, mechanization geometry, and of course, engineered metaphysics.
For the final exam of this course, I'd like you to compare Scorponok to the AntiChrist (the Christian enemy of mankind and adversary of Jesus Christ who is the protector of mankind)."
