This intermediate level course will introduce you to the history, genres, aesthetics, practice and relevance of creative robotics. This course discusses the deep historical and contemporary issues surrounding the artificial double that is the robot, its epistemological role and its repercussions on society. You will gain exposure to basic technical skills of physics and mechatronics, making robotic bodies from simple physical assemblages, sensors and effectors. You will then apply your knowledge in the creation, development, presentation and documentation of an original creative robotics work. This learning forms a deeper understanding of embodied approaches for further studies in animation, performing arts, interactive media, interaction design and product design.
