The relationship between expressivity morphology and acceptance, the conditions that make service robots desirable by man, is explored, through a series of examples, the contemporary scenario in which to the multitude of languages is added also the contamination of the digital world, outlining new morphological types.
This work has a purpose that could be described as somewhat contrived. On the one hand, it can be understood as a review of recent advances in robotics, neuromorphic computing, morphological control, and embodied artificial intelligence (AI) that have revived interest in the relationship between physical structure and...

The argument I will propose is that, even though, more superficially, the coexistence of the two phenomena seems to be symptomatic of the radicalisation of typically neoliberal values, it may be symptomatic of their crisis, because radicalising the automation of humans means sabotaging their optimisation and productivi...
Is it still reasonable to believe in human uniqueness in the age of human-like AI and robots?This book provides an affirmative answer by defending our human uniqueness through inclusive human relationality, with a reference to theimago Dei.
As relational creatures, we may feel deeply related to and connected with arti...
Kurt Wonnegut’s Player Piano is a cautionary tale about the social and ethical consequences of unchecked automation that raises pressing questions about what work means when machines can perform tasks more efficiently than humans, and how societies might cope with the loss of purpose and community that meaningful labor...

The natural environment has long been treated as an important part of the setting for social life, but buildings have only rarely been the focus of anthropological attention. It is time to engage more actively with the changes in the built environment brought about by recent shifts in global geographies of power. This...
Earlier works with drawing robots were motivated by ideas of delegation and autonomy to create a distance between the artist’s intentions and the final mark. In contrast, we present Companion, an artistic apparatus integrating a drawing robot with multimodal large language models (LLMs) to reintroduce the artist’s pres...
