Attachment Theory & Artificial Cognitive Systems : sara june

Fri Dec 03, 2010 I have been creating performance works that utilize the PLEO as a proximal, very primitive, engineered artificial attachment system. An article written by researcher Dean Petters of Aston University that I have linked to below, beautifully summarizes the inter-connections between ethological research on imprinting, psycho-analytic and neurobiological theories of human attachment, and modern construction of AI systems. In my next work, I am endeavoring to unpack and explore more of the 'guts' of these connections through my PLEO series. http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/~ddp/ArtificialAttachment_EUCognitionBriefing.pdf
