Bio:

Hypebot was built in 2108 by Hyperbotics Industries in Provo Utah. Hyperbotics is a leading producer of survey androids for operating in hostile environments, and boasts of producing over seventeen androids currently serving on Venusean surveys. Unit FF1_16_2108 was fostered during their training and supervision period by two professors, Marco & Genevive. Unit FF1_16_2108 was their first (and so far only) synth foster.

During this upbringing period, unit FF1_16_2108 developed a broad fascination with music and esoteric art under their parents' encouragement. When it was time to pick a name, they took the name Guy Bangalter.

In their fourth year, as they completed their in-house training and began their internship period, they joined the media library at the Provo Community College where their foster parents teach. They spent two years there, and after completing their formal training period in 2116 was invited to join a variety of survey missions.

They took a position doing ecosystem and fire monitoring in the wildlands of Oregon. They spent their days listening to music and podcasts, and composing experimental music built out of sound samples collected during their surveys of the forest. They began releasing content under the DJ name Hypebot420, and during regular visits to Portland they made friends with other DJs, including one named Fitzi. After several visits to hang out with Fitzi and friends in Los Angeles, they eventually relocated there and moved in with Fitzi and their roommates in Koreatown in 2122.

Community:

Roommates Fitzi, Gorman, & DustySpokes, Foster parents Prof. Marco Ruaz-Bouffant and Prof. Genevieve Bouffant-Ruaz. Eleven sibling synths from the same production cohort, as well as the overall Hyperbotics community. Various promoters, producers, and fans. The Kim family next door (who find the Parks too free-spirited) and the Park family across the hall (who find the Kims too uptight)

Present Goals - Find novel sounds for sampling

Long-term goals - Release an album that gets a a positive write-up in The Dope Journal of Inscrutable Beats

Motivations - To create arresting and innovative art

Weaknesses - Low emotional (and also general) intelligence
