Wilber stands five feet tall. He is the first robot I have ever made. He walks in such a way that you think he may fall over at any time, but he manages, barely. He participated in the 2002 OCAD Sumo Challenge in the Dancer/Painter Category. Wilber is programmed to randomly appear to fall over with every steps he takes by bobbing his head as he takes a step. This was sped up to match, most of the time, to ABBA's Dancing Queen.

Wilber has also done interventionist performances for robot rights in the Pickering Town Centre, and at the Pickering Art Festival in 2001. He went window shopping for clothes at the Pickering Town Centre unattended and was asked to leave after a half an hour walking in the mall because he was a robot and he was distracting the shoppers from shopping.

Wilber had to ask for permission to wander the Pickering Art Festival to look at artworks and was allowed to stay for the duration of the festival. Unfortunately, he was viewed as one of the works by the public that was meant to entertain them by walking "funny."
