Only a few decades ago the robot was still just a figure of science fiction. Nowadays, however, robots and robotic systems seem to be taking over our lives. Design has a key role to play in this process, for it is designers who shape the interface between humans and machines.

Hello, Robot.shows intelligent machines in industry and in the military, in children's rooms and retirement homes, in shopping and sex, in art, computers games and of course films an literature. Detailed essays and interviews examine how we respond to our increasingly digital, smart, and autnonmous environment. They illuminate our - often ambivalent - relationship with these new technologies and broaden our view of the ethical and political questions they raise. With contributions and works by Douglas Coupland, Dunne & Raby, Gesche Joost, robotlob, Bruce sterling, and many others.

The layout for Hello, Robot. Design between Human and Machine was devised by an algorithm in collabtioration with Double Standards, Berlin.
