flesh machine

Critical Art Ensemble rocks. Check this:

"... unlike the military (where the soldier is supplied with the technology to transform he/rself into a weapon system) the civilian force will buy the technology of their enslavement..."

and later:

"... the body must be trained to meet the demands of the technology..."

A bit deterministic, but still disturbing.

(From _Flesh Machine: Cyborgs, Designer Babies and New Eugenic Consciousness_)

"the civilian force will buy the technology of their enslavement" is sort of like us paying for our education!
