We've introduced you to the young robot boy Inochi before. He was spawned from the mind of artist Takashi Murakami.

Murakami is known for his work that ranges to t-shirt prints all the way up to super graphic Anime sculptures that challenge our comfort limits. Yes, that is a giant statue of a man lassoing his own, ummm... spunk (that pic is NSFW).

This is the first time we've ever seen the video of his creation Inochi come to life, and it's disturbing yet endearing. Poor robot kids have to deal with all the same issues little boys do as well, much to their humiliating dismay. Be it old or young, robot or organic life form, we all have to deal with spring fever.

Murakami, who says "I express hopelessness," picked up on the sexual fetishism and weirdness of anime, manga and otaku culture to create his own fusion of pop and otaku, called poku. He predicts that anime and otaku will give birth to a new culture in the future that will rejuvenate the Japanese art scene. But for now, he's commodifying his art and creating ambitious giant monsters, like this 23-foot tall Tongari-kun, or Mr. Pointy, who's also coming to Brooklyn. The show, called ©Murakami, traveled from LA in 11 trucks to the 18,500 square foot space. It'll be in NYC until mid-July. Images by Ted Rheingold and AP Exhibition main page
