THE ESOTERICS CREW on Instagram: "David Kirk Traylor, better known as David Zed or Mr. Zed, is an American performer recognized for his robotic mime act. He became especially famous in the 1980s and 1990s for his character Mr. Zed, a mechanical, human-like robot who moves and speaks in a machine-like way. His robotic mime work influenced later artists and comedians who mixed technology themes with physical performance."
