Tossup

Description acceptable. Richard Hamilton installed light-up eyes in a large cutout of this character in the This is Tomorrow exhibition. Robert Kinoshita conceived this character, who in a poster misleadingly carries a swooning woman in a scanty golden gown. This character asks “would 60 gallons be sufficient?” when asked to procure bourbon by an alcoholic cook. This character was recycled in properties like The Invisible Boy and The Twilight Zone after (*) breaking ground (10[1])in a film with “electric tonalities” by Bebe and Louis Barron. This character refuses to kill a monster manifesting from the id of Dr. Morbius because he is programmed not to harm humans. For 10 points, identify this machine from a 1956 sci-fi adaptation of (10[1])The Tempest set on Altair IV. ■END■ (10[1])
