Robotic Mirroring process that studies human-gestures, by recording and translating actions into a machine-path. With the robot as mimic, Mirroring, the designers question the nature of these behaviors: are they necessary? Should it be passed on? If so, how could we enhance it to empower women? Design proposal: Set design for “The Robot Salon”. Image Courtesy of Gili Ron and Irina Bogdan The name of the project relates to the myth of Pygmalion and Galatea. Galatea is the image of the perfect woman created by sculptor Pygmalion, for his pleasure. […] We wanted to reverse this relationship. Here, the instrument is regarded as equal and is invited to partake in co-creation. This way we challenge the image of women in the digital age moving away from perfection, away from the male gaze, and into kinship of women and machines. -- Gili Ron and Irina Bogdan
