Robots, artificial machines, have continually inspired the imagination of artists, authors, and filmmakers. Sometimes the fascination takes center stage, at other times it is fear, but most often it encompasses both. Androids serve as a constant reminder of the limits of humanity, not least because of their human-like appearance. At the same time, the boundaries between human and machine are increasingly blurred, regardless of whether robots dream of electric sheep or not. This provides ample reason to explore this theme from various perspectives in a mini-concept series consisting of initially four volumes. In "Androids," robots appear both as a threat and as saviors of humanity, and at times even as the true guardians of humanity. Or simply as robots—electric sheep or not.
