ABSTRACT
Mapocci is a robotic companion for children, created in the juncture of digital art and HCI practices. It was developed during an art residency program at Telefonica R+D. The dynamics of negotiation and collaboration with the R+D team transformed the objectives and methods of the art project. This case study shows this transformation process as well as the contribution that the digital art methods brought to the R+D team framework and vice versa in the HCI project.
