Robotic Vision and Virtual Interfacings - Seeing, Sensing, Shaping

How do past and present technologies affect how we perceive the world? As the symbiotic relationship between human and machine unfolds, robotic vision facilitates a reshaping and reconstitution of our perception of the world. This edited collection explores ways in which this is taking place and the implictions for these new ways of seeing ethically, politically, culturally and socially from an art and design perspective and through a critical theoretical lens. The contributors converge on the intersection of New Materialism, Media Studies and Cultural Theory and offer speculative approaches combining creative writing and visual interludes from artists and designers, all of which address the question: are we on the cusp of new ways of seeing? Nina Trivedi is Lecturer in Design: Race and Intercultural Studies Focus at Central St Martins, University of the Arts. Luci Eldridge is Lecturer in Fine Art at Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton.
