As a reaction to typically dead-end debates on future human and
robot collaboration that tend to be either dismissive or overly
welcoming towards "cobot" technologies, this book provides a
technofeminist intervention. Pat Treusch not only shows how both
the fields of technofeminism and robotics can engage in a practical
exchange through knitting, but also contributes a tangible example
of coboting dynamics. Robotic Knitting re-negotiates the boundaries
between formalisation and embodiment, craft and high-tech as well
as useful and dysfunctional machines. It re-crafts the nature of
collaboration between human and robot. This finally entails an
alternative mode of relating - a mode that enables an account of
careful coboting.
