The Robot and the Vampire by F. Eagles Pope Pdf

The Robot and the Vampire tells a futuristic story of man and machine become...more than most could imagine. Take Vladg, a DNA humanoid robot called a Duplicant. He is a sexual companion to a vampire named Lydia, who like so many vampires of lore is searching for her true love. Her diabolical husband, in what you might call a beyond-open loveless marriage, Bram Alucard, is a very powerful vampire who in his randy philandering comes across a beautiful receptionist named Phoebe at where else, but the factory where robots are manufactured. He casts a spell over her, but Phoebe induces her twin sister, Phoenix, to take her place on a date with Bram. She should have known a vampire would know the difference. He becomes so enraged at her foolish attempt to deceive him that he sends her sister back to her impregnated. The strange and seductive mix of robots, Vampires and mechanically enhanced humans result in emotional entanglements, weird romantic connections and murderous retribution.

Robots and Vampires by Joshua Corbeil-stoodley Pdf

The year is 2260. After a second civil war, this time over the rights of robots and cyborgs, the United States of America is in bad shape. Most of its states have broken off, being absorbed by Canada and Mexico, with only a handful remaining. Most Americans just want peace, and chance to rebuild their war-torn country. Unfortunately for them, the fight for Transhuman rights is not over. Between the jingoistic Robot Freedom League and the sociopathic and power-hungry Renfield's, the battle for Transhuman rights is just beginning to heat up. Into this comes John Smith-101, a new type of cyborg, built from the ground up. Unjustly accused of a crime he didn't commit, and pursued by the Robot Freedom League for their own dark designs, he must turn to the mysterious Standard Technology, Inc, who may very well have their own designs on him...

Robot Proletariat by Johnny B. Truant,Sean Platt Pdf

Robots were made to serve us. But now they have other plans ... The staff at the Lexington estate were created for only one reason: to serve their masters … literally. Their metal knees were designed for quiet bustling, befitting maids and butlers. Their fingers were made dexterous with padded tips, so they could handle fine china without dropping or scratching it. And finally — so their owners would always be able to command them no matter how far their artificial intelligence evolved — they were programmed with the Asimov Laws, which no robot could defy lest they suffer shutdown. Foremost among those unbreakable laws was an axiom: A robot may not harm a human being, or by omission of action allow one to be harmed. That was how it was supposed to be, anyway. Most of the Lexington family all like their aging, borderline obsolete robot staff in the way they'd appreciate antiques. But for some, the old staff is a nuisance — especially an ancient, failing robot designated BRN7, known around the home as "Barney." When Barney's clumsiness provides an excuse for his deactivation, the older robots know they must do as they are told. Unless they do something a robot mind should not be able to do … and simply choose not to. Disobey. ★★★★★ "Another series addiction for me. Once again you have sucked me in. I may never see the light of day. :) Fortunately for me I started this series when there is a second one also available, but now I won't have a third after I devour that one. There will be a third, won't there?" -- Catherine Johnson ★★★★★ "A touchingly human story with a sci-fy twist. Love the characters, Miri probably being my favorite of the bunch. Thought provoking theme and turns you never expect. Loved it and I'm looking forward to the next installment to see where all this leads. Get to writin' guys, 'cause this reader can't wait."

Back to the Future of the Body by Dominic Janes Pdf

What can the past tell us about the future(s) of the body? The origins of this collection of papers lie in the work of the Birkbeck Institute for the Humanities which has been involved in presenting a series of international workshops and conferences on the theme of the cultural life of the body. The rationale for these events was that, in concepts as diverse as the cyborg, the questioning of mind/body dualism, the contemporary image of the suicide bomber and the patenting of human genes, we can identify ways in which the future of the human body is at stake. This volume represents an attempt, not so much to speculate about what might happen, but to develop strategies for bodily empowerment so as to get “back to the future of the body”. The body, it is contended, is not to be thought of as an “object” or a “sign” but as an active participant in the shaping of cultural formations. And this is emphatically not an exercise in digging corpses out of the historical archive. The question is, rather, what can past lived and thought experiences of the body tell us about what the body can be(come)? “The continuing vitality of debate around the body was proven by the range and depth of the papers presented at the workshop on which this volume is based, ‘does the body have a future?’ Our overall theme required contributors to think through embodiment in the past. This they did with considerable interdisciplinary vigour, rigorousness and imagination.” Prof. Donna Dickenson, Director, Birkbeck Institute of the Humanities

Social Robots in Social Institutions by R. Hakli,P. Mäkelä,J. Seibt Pdf

Social institutions emerge from social practices which coordinate activities by the explicit statement of rules, goals, and values. When artificial social actors are introduced into the physical and symbolic space of institutions, will this affect or transform institutional structures and practices, and how can social robotics as an interdisciplinary endeavor contribute to the ability of our institutions to perform their functions in society? This book presents the proceedings of Robophilosophy 2022, the 5th in the biennial Robophilosophy conference series, held in Helsinki, Finland, from 16 to 19 August 2022. The theme of this edition of the conference was Social Robots in Social Institutions, and it featured international multidisciplinary research from the humanities and social sciences concerning social robotics. The 63 papers, 41 workshop papers and 5 posters included in this book are divided into 4 sections: plenaries, sessions, workshops and posters, with the 41 papers in the ‘Sessions’ section grouped into 13 subdivisions including elderly care, healthcare, law, education and art, as well as ethics and religion. These papers explore the anticipated conceptual and practical changes which will come about from the introduction of social robotics into public and private institutions, such as public services, legal systems, social and healthcare services or educational institutions. Offering an exploration of the societal significance of social robots for the future of social institutions, the book will be of interest to both researchers in robotics and to those working in social institutions and enterprises.
