From the moment of birth, humans and animals are immersed in time: all experiences and actions evolve in time and are dynamically structured. The perception of time is thus a capacity indispensable for the control of perception, cognition and action. The last 10 years have witnessed a remarkable resurgence of interest in timing and time perception, with a continuously increasing number of researchers exploring these innate abilities. However, existing robotic systems largely neglect the key role of time in cognition and action. This is a major barrier for accomplishing the long-term goal of symbiotic human-robot interaction. The critical question is: how is time instantiated in a biological system and how can it be implemented in an artificial system? Recent years have for example seen an increasing focus on the relationship between affective states and the experience of time. The influence of affective states on subjective time seems to depend on the embodiment of emotions: intertwined affective and interoceptive states may create our subjective experience of time. Since robotic systems are in essence embodied information-processing systems that interact with the real world, we hope to inspire a reciprocal exchange of ideas between the field of Robotics and the Cognitive Neurosciences. In this research topic, we call researchers from different disciplines (Robotics, Neurosciences, and Psychology) to present their empirical work, their models or reviews on the question of how time judgments are instantiated in biological and artificial systems. Of particular interest are papers on time perception in humans and animals, with a focused interest on embodied time perception, i.e. the influence of affective and body states on time judgments. Moreover, the present Research Topic seeks to gather papers discussing the key role of time on different aspects of robotic cognition as well as modeling approaches. We are interested in paving the way for a new generation of intelligent computational systems that incorporate the sense of time in their processing loop and thus accomplish more efficient and more advanced cognitive capacities.

Time Is on Your Side tells the compelling story of a handful of characters. Alison is a beautiful, dedicated high school history teacher who, as she approaches middle age, having never been married nor having had any children, is beginning to feel like the happily-ever-after relationship ending that she had always hoped for may be a pipe dream. Also featured in the novel are a man in his sixties whose quest for spiritual salvation is being afflicted by his inner demons and a teenager with a seemingly promising future whose life has become encumbered by stress. This is a novel that seeks to inspire readers by expounding upon the importance of demonstrating steadfast faithfulness.
Time is on my side
Der gesellschaftliche Wandel in den 60er Jahren wurde besonders stark von einer jugendlich geprägten, häufig polarisierenden Massenkultur vorangetrieben, die sich seit den späten 50er Jahren herausgebildet hatte. Jazzbands, der Star-Club, Zeitschriften wie Twen und Konkret, Rundfunksendungen wie Radio Bremens Beat Club, die Folk- und Underground-Festivals auf der Burg Waldeck und die Essener Songtage von 1968, Wohngemeinschaften und Jugendzentren waren Kristallisationsformen dieser neuartigen Jugendkultur, die von der Konsumgesellschaft erst ermöglicht wurde. In der Bundesrepublik war die Erneuerungsbewegung mindestens ebenso stark wie in anderen europäischen Gesellschaften von politischen Visionen und Konflikten geprägt. Ihre stärkste symbolische Verdichtung fand diese widersprüchliche Symbiose in dem Signum 1968. Detlef Siegfried untersucht Bedingungen und Dynamiken von Entstehung und Ausbreitung der westdeutschen Jugendkultur zwischen 1958 und 1973. Im Mittelpunkt stehen ihre Akteure und Orte, Themen und Medien. Damit werden Protagonisten, Richtungen, Verläufe und Ausformungen jenes Wertewandels deutlich, der die Kontur der Bundesrepublik nachhaltig prägte.--
