Design between Human and Machine
The international exhibition Hello, Robot. Design between Human and Machine is a cooperation of the MAK, the Vitra Design Museum, and the Design museum Gent.
Core topics: Science Fiction and its Impact on Design; Robots, AI; Smart Devices, Smart Cities
What impact does robotics have on our everyday (working) lives and what pivotal role does design play in this, shaping our—often ambivalent—relationship to new technologies? What opportunities and challenges arise in this regard for us as individuals and as a society?
