Join Adrienne Hart (Neon Dance), Hemma Philamore (Bristol Robotics Lab) and Helen Manchester (University of Bristol) for a 1.5 hour workshop where we introduce robotic technologies for human interaction.
We invite participants to imagine robots of the future and how they might support more people to enjoy and participate in live performance!
Part of a joint research venture between Neon Dance, Bristol Robotics Lab and the University of Bristol, you’ll get to play with bio-inspired robots, explore tele-operating robots and inform future designs by this creative team.
