Organizers

Andreas Bischof

Andreas Bischof leads an interdisciplinary research group at Chemnitz University of Technology and collaborates with researchers and practitioners from Media and Communication, Human-Machine Interaction, Sociology, Media Informatics, Design, Science and Technology Studies and Socio-Gerontology. After a Sociology PhD on the epistemology of Human-Robot Interaction, he received grants for robotic projects. As an advocate for transdisciplinary and interdisciplinary research, he tries to sensitize research policy and public funders for the chances and challenges of integrating people in technology development.

Eva Hornecker

Eva Hornecker is a Professor of Human-Computer Interaction at Bauhaus-Universität Weimar. Before Weimar, she spent several years in the UK as researcher and lecturer. Her work lies at the intersection between technology, design, and the social sciences, with a particular interest in anything that is not traditional screen-based computing, is embedded in the physical world, and/or relates to the notion of embodied interaction. She currently leads a project exploring alternative visions for care robotics following an open-ended, design-driven approach.

Antonia Krummheuer

Antonia Krummheuer is associate professor at the Faculty of Social Science and Humanities at Aalborg University. She is a sociologist with a deep interest in understanding the construction of meaning in socio-material practices with and without technologies and how this knowledge can inform the development of HRI and social robotics. Therefore she combines co-creational processes with video-ethnographic research and interaction analysis. She is working at Aalborg University since 2013, before she was assistant professor at Klagenfurt University (Austria), where she received her Doctoral degree (with honours) in 2008.

Matthias Rehm

Matthias Rehm is a professor at the Technical Faculty of IT and Design at AAU. He is the head of the Human Machine Interaction group and the coordinator of the interdisciplinary HRI lab at AAU. Before, he was assistant professor at Augsburg University where he finished his habilitation in 2008. He received his doctoral degree with honors from Bielefeld University in 2001. His research focuses on the fundamental question of how our socio-cultural practices become manifest – and can be exploited – in interactions with technology.
