Welcome to the uncube robot issue!
uncube issue no. 36: Uncanny Valley takes a close look at current developments in robotics and intelligent systems with respect to architecture and beyond. From bionic limbs to stone cutting, construction sites to K9 pets, we talk to innovators and researchers about our relationship with robots and how they will serve us in the future – and about some of the implications that we may need to consider more carefully.
Packed with more film and animation than ever before, this issue takes some concentrated reading and viewing. But instead of handing over yet more effort to your smart support systems, take some time to absorb the message (and/or massage) our medium contains. If you are going to surrender your future rights to the machine then you should at least read the manual first!
uncube at your service.
