Robotics Poetry…

Abstract

The connection between art and technology may for some people be already known, but for the general public is not obvious nor widely spread. Thus, the question “But what kind of relationship may exist between Kavafis and robotics?” wasn’t heard as absurd, but justified in a first level, as it is difficult for someone to relate two phenomenally unconnected fields: Robotics and Literature. Even more, Robotics with Kavafis’ poetry, whose thematology may be deeply well-timed and eternal, but reaches the reader through people and language from a different era. And all this, taking place in the primary level of education. However, the effort which was made by the Robotics Club, which consists of students of 5^th and 6^th grade of Ralleia Model Experimental Primary Schools, was exactly towards the connection of art with technology and, in particular, Kavafis’ poetry with robotics.
