    Of all the things I need to fold, towels are the easiest. Probably because before long, they’ll be hanging on towel hooks, so there’s no pressure to fold them in any particularly attractive way. This robot is much more dignified, though, it must be said, very slow. That said, the sped-up video gives it an agreeable birdlike quality, does it not?
