In which fields and roles will android robots—which mimic humans physically and behaviorally—become increasingly important in the future? Will robots be used more and more in healthcare facilities, nursing homes and retirement communities, educational settings, new types of vertical farms, hybrid data centers, hedonistic activities, and, most importantly, new types of mixed-use spaces? Will advanced robots evolve into intelligent cyborgs—half-human, half-machine? Will the increasing interaction between humans and robots lead to dystopian or utopian spatial narratives?
This conference serves as the opening event for a five-day workshop of the same title. Unlike the workshop, this event is open to everyone, whether from within or outside the university. Registration is required.

In what future spaces and functions will android robots that physically and behaviorally mimic human beings become increasingly relevant? Will robots be increasingly used in healthcare centers, nursing and retirement homes, educational spaces, new types of vertical farms, hybrid data centers, hedonistic activities, and, above all, new kinds of mixed-use spaces? Will advanced robots become smart cyborgs—part human and part machine? Will the growing interaction between humans and robots result in dystopian or paradisal spatial narratives?
