Roboexotica is the annual festival where scientists, researchers,
computer experts and artists from all over the world build cocktail
robots and discuss technological innovation, futurology and science
fiction.Until recently, no attempts had been made to publicly discuss
the role
of cocktail robotics as an index for the integration of technological
innovations into the human Lebenswelt, or to document the
increasing occurrence of radical hedonism in man-machine communication.
Roboexotica is an attempt to fill this vacuum. It is the first and,
inevitably, the leading festival concerned with cocktail robotics
world-wide. A micro mechanical change of paradigm in the age of
borderless capital. Alan Turing would doubtless test this out. Cheers!
Roboexotica is a coproduction of monochrom, Shifz and the Bureau for Philosophy.
December 1-4, 2011 in Vienna, Austria.
