STELARC

Born 1946
Performance artist.
performances include robotics and other technology combined with the body.
Flesh Hook Suspension
attached electrodes to his body and people were able to control it via the internet
THIRD EAR
had a 'cell-cultivated' ear attached to his left arm in 2007.

"today I might decide to see with the eyes of someone in London, hear with the ears of someone in Montreal, whilst my left arm is remotely prompted by someone in Tokyo to perform a task here in San Francisco. So imagine a sensory experience that is not bound by one particular location, or bound by the skin or senses of this particular body."
