Project Prometheus Gives Us A Look At David 8’s “Emotions” Caleb Hamilton, April 17, 2012April 17, 2012 Earlier today, a new Prometheus viral video featuring Michael Fassbender as the Weyland Industries android, David 8, premiered online. The ad was a sort of mock-interview in which an off-screen voice asked David a series of questions, one of which being “David, what makes you sad?” The robot then displayed the human emotion of sadness, even shedding tears. Project Prometheus is now giving Weyland Investors an in-depth look at David 8’s Emotion Output Display Module. More after the jump. In order to unlock each of David’s emotions, investors had to decode some binary in special images sent out to 8 film blogs, like the one below from ComingSoon.net.
