The body is an evolutionary architecture that operates and becomes aware in the world.
To alter it’s architecture is to adjust it’s awareness. The body has always been a prosthetic body, one augmented by its instruments and machines. There has always been a danger of the body behaving involuntarily and of being conditioned automatically.
A Zombie is a body that performs involuntarily, that does not have a mind of it’s own.
A Cyborg is a human-machine system There has always been a fear of the involuntary and the automated. Of the Zombie and the Cyborg. But we fear what we have always been and what we have already become.
