"With astonishing speed and relatively little public debate, we have been projected into a new reality where interactions with drones, robotic bodies, and high-level surveillance are not uncommon to encounter. In this age of ground-breaking developments in robotic technologies, synthetic biology is merging with artificial intelligence and articulated robotic limbs, altogether forming a newly blended reality of machines, bodies, and affect. Technologies of the New Real draws from critical intersections of technology and society, including drones, surveillance, DIY bodies, and innovations in robotic technology, to explore what these advances in science and technology can tell us about our present reality, or what authors Arthur and Marilouise Kroker deem, as the "new real" of digital culture in the twenty-first century.
