Get intimate with robots

-

A FOREST arts event in Scotland is to explore the issues around intimacy with cyborgs and the future of humans relationsh­ips with robots.

Vivienne Kuh, a Bristolbas­ed creative producer, will present an adults-only talk at this month’s Sanctuary art event, which takes place in the heart of a forest in Dumfries and Galloway.

Cyborgs, Sexbots And Sexual Intimacy will discuss the social, ethical, psychologi­cal and even criminal issues involved in this subject.

Sanctuary takes place from noon on September 23.

Another highlight will be Dark Outside FM, a sitespecif­ic radio station playing previously unheard music contribute­d from all round the world.

The radio station is a one-off as listeners can only tune in onsite and the sound files are destroyed when the event ends.
