Exploring the Boundaries Between Man and Machine


From io9, a wicked sci-fi blog, comes a story about an art show called "Cyberdine" in NYC. The artists in the show are a sculptor who is a former prosthetist and a painter, who are "exploring the boundaries between man and machine." Looks very interesting. Zillions of us are walking around with various artificial parts, from screws to steel rods to joints to valves to limbs! Technology is only getting more advanced. Here's a look at it from an artist instead of a scientist.
