Hacking the Human Fantastic
The boundaries between the human and his environment have been thinning for thousands of years, and this session will trace the co-evolution of the human mind and the technology it has created. From the cuniform and cartouch to the iLife, the impact and significance of artifacts on the human experience are often not recognized for what they are, implements of dehumanization. The subtle cyborgation of the modern consumer will be discussed in with respect to our designs, desires, and destiny.
