The Robots and Avatars Collaborative Futures panel will take place at the Kinetica Art Fair on Saturday 6th February at 11am. It will look at working processes and collaborations between the physical and virtual in future work environments, and imagining teams that may include the live, the virtual, robots and avatars. Examining new creation techniques of self representation, developing in the forms of robots and avatars, the debate will explore the effect of these evolutions on creative outputs and onwards working modes.
Panel members include Prof. Noel Sharkey (University of Sheffield), Ron Edwards (Ambient Performance), Ghislaine Boddington begin_of_the_skype_highlighting end_of_the_skype_highlighting (body>data>space), Peter McOwan (Queen Mary, University of London), Anna Hill (Space Synapse) and Michael Takeo Magruder (King’s Visualisation Lab, King’s College London).
