[emcai] EMCAI Network meeting

[Hannah Pelikan]

[Dear EMCA/AI network members, for your convenience also as a calendar invitation.]

We will have a data session hosted by Lynn de Rijk, Wyke Stommel and Mike Huiskes on human-cat interaction.

Abstract
This data session, we will look at video-recordings made in a Dutch cat café. We are especially interested in ways humans and cats initiate doing (or not doing) something together, with one question raised by the data being: when can we even speak of (an) interaction? With so many of our network members involved in studying some form of human-machine interaction, we are furthermore interested to see how this data can be analyzed using that experience, for example, whether we can identify similar practices in how humans approach cats and how humans approach “social” machines.

Subtitles will be provided with the video’s to ensure non-Dutch speakers can follow along easily. If you know any EM/CA researchers interested in interspecies interaction, please feel free to invite them!

We are excited that this session will provide some empirical underpinning to our discussions, which often draw comparisons between interacting with machines and animals.

Best wishes,
Hannah, Lynn and Saul
