Title:
Offloaded Agency

Abstract:
I have developed a new android called "Alter". Based on the artificial life principle (using T3 chaos and the new learning principle called stimulus avoidance), Alter behaves autonomously and he receives visual and sound information from the environment. Here Alter mimics human behavior coming in front of him spontaneously using the internal simulator. Especially with this version at the Barbican center, Alter creates new actions patterns by switching between the action sequence generated by the internal simulator and the stored memories of its past behaviors . I would like to discuss the purpose of this project Alter and the concept of " offloaded agency". This work is also based on the series of our psychological experiments called "Perceptual Crossing Experiments".
