As the symbiotic relationship between human and machine unfolds, robotic vision facilitates a reshaping and reconstitution of our perception of the world. This edited collection explores ways in which this is taking place and the implictions for these new ways of seeing ethically, politically, culturally and socially from an art and design perspective and through a critical theoretical lens. The contributors converge on the intersection of New Materialism, Media Studies and Cultural Theory and offer speculative approaches combining creative writing and visual interludes from artists and designers, all of which address the question: are we on the cusp of new ways of seeing?

Sensing is the new arena in technological intervention. Robotic Vision and Virtual Interfacings offers fascinating stories and valuable perspectives on this new stage of human and technological interaction. -- Marie-Luise Angerer, University of Postdam
