Who's Afraid of Virtual Humans?

This paper addresses the uncanny valley effect of humanoids from a gender studies perspective. On that account it suggests to link the construction of the human-computer interface to the construction of the cultural order of the two genders. This connection is derived from a rereading of the Turing test. A semiotic view on computer science serves as epistemological grounding of the analysis. Th...

Rotational spectroscopy of isotopic vinyl cyanide , H 2 C = CH − C ≡ N , in the laboratory and in space ⋆

The rotational spectra of singly substituted 13C and 15N isotopic species of vinyl cyanide have been studied in natural abundances between 64 and 351 GHz. In combination with previous results, greatly improved spectroscopic parameters have been obtained which in turn helped to identify transitions of the 13C species for the first time in space through a molecular line survey of the extremely li...
