What does it mean to mirror ourselves in them, to perform them or to play trial identity games with them? This volume addresses these questions from artistic and scholarly angles. Contributions on the making of »technical others« and philosophical reflections on artificial alterity are flanked by neuroscientific studies on different ways of perceiving living persons and artificial counterparts. The contributors have achieved a successful artistic-scientific collaboration with extensive visual material. 606 $aAvatars (Virtual reality) 606 $aPuppets 606 $aRobots 606 $aPHILOSOPHY / General$2bisacsh 610 $aAvatars. 610 $aFilm. 610 $aMedia Philosophy. 610 $aMedia Studies. 610 $aMedia Theory. 610 $aMedia. 610 $aNeuroscientific Investigations on Perception. 610 $aPhilosophy. 610 $aTechnological Others. 615 0$aAvatars (Virtual reality). 615 0$aPuppets. 615 0$aRobots. 615 7$aPHILOSOPHY / General. 676 $a006.7 702 $aBeeler$b Thabo, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aBen Khelifa$b Nadja, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aBradley$b Derek, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aBrugger$b Peter, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aDorfman$b Elena, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aGrunwald$b Thomas, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKegel$b Lorena, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aLoertscher$b Miriam Laura, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMersch$b Dieter, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aRey$b Anton, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSternagel$b Jörg, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 712 02$aSwiss National Science Foundation (SNSF)$4fnd$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fnd 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996543163003316 996 $aActor & Avatar$93519271 997 $aUNISA
