Cyborg art
Artwork, created using extra senses generated with cybernetic implants in the body From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cyborg art, also known as cyborgism,[1] is an art movement that began in the mid-2000s in Britain.[2] It is based on the creation and addition of new senses to the body via cybernetic implants[3] and the creation of art works through new senses.[4] Cyborg artworks are created by cyborg artists;[5] artists whose senses have been voluntarily enhanced through cybernetic implants.[6]
Among the early artists shaping the cyborg art movement are Neil Harbisson, whose antenna implant allows him to perceive ultraviolet and infrared colours,[7] and Moon Ribas whose implants in her feet[8] allow her to feel earthquakes and moonquakes.[9]
- Manel De Aguas, a Catalan photographer who developed fins that allow him to perceive atmospheric pressure, humidity and temperature through a couple of implants at each side of his head.[10]
- Joe Dekni, an artist who has developed and installed a radar system in his head. The sensory system includes two implants in his cheekbones.[11]
- Pau Prats, creator of a system that allows him to feel the ultraviolet ray levels that reach his skin.[12][13]
- Alex Garcia, whose sensor installed in his chest allows him to feel the air quality levels around him.[14]
