Face to Interface – Introduction
Welcome to “Face to Interface”, the Research Blog of the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) team of the MOZART project!
Welcome to “Face to Interface”, the Research Blog of the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) team of the MOZART project!
In this blog, we will document and explore our research experience in working at the intersection between SSH and robotic engineering on the one hand, and on the other between academia and industry. The focus will be on how SSH research can contribute to both, evaluating potentials and overcoming challenges in the context of the MOZART project.
We will draw on the large existing corpus on integrative-interdisciplinary methods in SSH research, but also on the potentials of historical and critical SSH perspectives on automation for that.
We envision this research blog to offer us a format which will allow us to reflect upon different steps of implementing the ambitious SSH project work and at the same time to communicate selected insights to all stakeholder communities involved in MOZART in a quick, accessible manner.
The blog is organized into three streams of collaboration in MOZART that the SSH team identified. We will present content related to one of these streams each month, including written posts and, where possible, related multimedia sources, (i.e. video, graphics, audio, fanzines).
- Interdisciplinary research in the making
- HRI, automation, and emotions: Do (not) fear the robots!
- HRI interfaces – Histories, presents and futures of human labour divisions at the factory
