	Henrietta, Peter Dittrich, Andre Skusa Photograph taken in the morning of Saturday 17 April. Peter has just re-assembled Henrietta, the random robot. As Peter explained, this is one task where you should not know what you are doing. During the rest of the day, the GP system is set to evolve a control program to make Henrietta drag a computer mouse forward. When we get back from lunch, the new program has been evolved.
