Event Description

Maria Gerolemou: Technical Automation in Greek Classical Antiquity

The sphere of technical automation, which involves the autonomous movement and actions of both human-crafted and divine creations, transcends the boundaries of conventional engineering or fiction. In this presentation, I aim to delve into the inherent semantic and linguistic ties between technical automation and natural automatism. This exploration will unveil the intricate interplay between nature and artifice, particularly evident in the context of ancient Greek literature, performance arts, and engineering.
