Cyborg Cometh, The

Synopsis
Portrays the modern human body and the technology that shapes and modifies it. Examines the theory of some academics who have come to believe that we are no longer simple human beings but are instead all cyborgs - cybernetic organisms - part human, part machine. Explores and redefines the relationship between people’s bodies and technology and asks whether we are ready to give up our bodies altogether.
