kirslyn is not a cyborg

I just wanted to see what would happen if i typed "cyborg" into google.
the first one is from an article about what a cyborg is. the obama one is clearly a political statement/criticism. the girl (kate moss) is from an article talking about "youth as cyborgs" and the last is robocop. because it's a great movie.
i guess it is not only interesting to see what people define as a cyborg, but how people use photoshop to create what they picture as a cyborg. it is especially interesting to see those contrasted with the "cyborg" in the medical field...

  2. I was looking at the young women who has only a metal rod connecting her waist and chest... very scary.

  3. These images defiantly take the meaning of cyborg to the extreme. I think that this shows how far away from necessary this technology could become. And how it can easily stray from just helpful for health reasons.

  4. The woman with a cyborg body kinda creeps me out. I mean she just looks like a robot more than anything else, and I don't think it is natural for us to be like that.
