Brave Bioart 2: Shedding the Bio, Amassing the Nano, and Cultivating Emortal (Posthuman) Life
Brave Bioart 2: Shedding the Bio, Amassing the Nano, and Cultivating Emortal (Posthuman) Life: "BioArt is a well-known field within new media art that uses genetic engineering, cloning and transgenesis in modifying organisms and creating new life forms. Most often BioArt is limited to single cells and organelles and steers away from human modification, outside of Stelarc’ ear. To date, BioArt has no interest in human enhancement and life extension. Brave BioArt 2 refers to a transhumanist intervention of BioArt by bringing to the foreground earliest works with biology in the original field of Biological Art, which has been working with the human body and life extension for several decades."
