Response to Transcendent man

Here is a man who has predicted mind-boggling events for centuries, and when he says the future is cyborgs, you listen. He talks about the potential to become post-human within the next few years. While this may sound like a scary topic and it is sure to have people up in arms, there is nothing to be afraid about.  He is merely talking about improving our physical condition; if we lost a leg we can now replace it. Science is just around the corner from making innovations to reproduce organs and save thousands of lives.  But how does this relate to art? We see some artists using these technologies to preform, much like the new media craze this cyborg phase is just an emerging technology and it will take a while before we see any real tangible art being produced. At this point art and cybernetics is in the pre-production phase and it is up to a few select artists to show us the potential for this medium and create a spark that will ignite masterpieces.
