Abstract

This chapter brings a critical perspective to government and corporate robot spectacles for the public. This chapter examines the nationalistic and promotional narratives in demonstration performances of robots presented as entertainment at large international events held in Japan since the 1970s. I highlight the rhetoric of robots as emblems of futurity that pervades these spectacularised robot events, which feature fantasies of future human-robot interaction, modelled for the wider Japanese public. I examine in what ways the dramatic and dazzling mises en scène of such events have been crafted to make the next-generation robots symbolically meaningful to the Japanese audience.
