*Hi everyone,

There's a new podcast of Zepelim. This one is inspired by the *Uncanny
Valley*<http://www.androidscience.com/theuncannyvalley/proceedings2005/uncannyvalley.html>,
a term coined by the Japanese roboticist Masahiro
Mori<http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/fl20110310jk.html>that
appeared for the first time in 1970 in the Journal
*Energy. *The* Uncanny Valley* is one of the most intriguing and poetic
concepts in the field of robotics in that it conveys an important message
about how human beings interact and how we deal with the perception of the
unfamiliar and death. In this show, Zepelim follows the curves of the
Uncanny Valley chart, presenting a sound collage featuring sounds from
industrial robots to humanoid robots and uncanny soundscapes.
