I think it comes from virtual idols in Japan, Date Kyoko, Kyoko Date, 1996
- we have the original multi-media disk, Love Communication. I wrote an
article on her and virtual idols in general for an anthropological
magazine around that time, I think it was Etnofoor - something like that -
it was translated. It created a sense of unease re: the Japanese pop
scene.
As a concept though maybe it goes all the way back to Capek's play R.U.R.
or those 19th century images of steam engines as humanoid etc. and
probably back father, I think there might have been references in ancient
Greece?
Moloch! :-)
Best, Alan, a can of worms!

Hi Tina, it refers to humans and robots and the
latter are increasingly
impossible to tell from the former; there's a
"valley" which is occupied
by both human and robot - where they may overlap in
the future - and where
it may be difficult to tell them apart. It's uncanny
because it may be
machine or living tissue or both, and it can be an
area of discomfort for
people, someone not knowing who or what they're
talking to or confronting.

Friends I am shamelessly going to use the list to pitch
money and support for my latest book
Gaza Blues.
As many of you know I has been in Palestine and Gaza several
times I was in the battle of Jenin a kind of rehearsal in small
scale to what happens in Gaza. And no Hamas to blame.
www.ceciliaparsberg.se/jenin
Now I wrote a book about Gaza with stories about their culture
their food their festivities a kind of archeology of Gaza. Maybe
Gaza is going to be destroyed but let us writers artists and
common people keep Gaza alive in books stories and exhibitions.
I started a Go Fund page to make the book translated into
English and Spanish. The book is already out in Swedish my
second language.
https://gofund.me/2abccf75
And please pitch in and share it! A part of the selling of the
book is going directly to Gaza.
