Curiosity Killed the Cat / The reading view
This is where the interesting questions begin.
There is a strong reading opportunity in the space between Uncanny Valley and Human-Computer Interaction. “Debugging The Uncanny Valley” brings those listed subjects onto the same shelf and gives your next question a place to start. Almost-human design is a fascinating place to ask how appearance, movement, and expectation fit together. Bring a face, voice, or avatar example to the reading and ask which small detail changes your response. Follow the most surprising question first. Sketch an explanation, imagine an alternative, and see what you would need to distinguish them. The best part of an interesting subject is often the next question it unlocks. Save it for the next time you want to follow the idea further.Take a closer look
