Minds Bodies Machines
Elio spotted a research group called Mind Bodies Machines, here’s how they describe themselves:
Minds, Bodies, Machines brings University researchers from the humanities and social sciences together with professionals from the IT community in order to explore questions that are central to our highly technological age: what is life, what is mind, can machines think and be self-aware, what does the human imagination bring to hard science?
There is a conference in London, on 6-7 July 2007 with a focus on androids in nineteenth century.
I’m curious to see how earlier representations of our relationship with machinery compare to more recent images of our cyborg selves.
