My four books have thus far been on aspects of alternative
sexualities: prostitution, pornography, sadomasochism, transsexuality,
pedophilia, and female ejaculation. The books include: Reading,
Writing, and Rewriting the Prostitute Body, Whore Carnival,
Bad Attitude\s on Trial, and Fast Feminism.
Fast Bodies and Cyber Humans is a redirection of
my research, work, and interest away from the flesh body to
cybernetics (the functional merging of the flesh body and
technology) and the cyborg body. Fast Bodies and Cyber
Humans probes the alteration in human emotions through
the interactivity of human intelligence (HI) and artificial
intelligence (AI), and what this alteration means in terms
of the interactive emotions of intimacy, love, anger and violence;
it pursues the relationship between Buddhism and Artificial
Life (AL). Chapters will include: 1. First Cyborg/Last Human,
2. Grow Me a Friend – Tissue Engineering East and West;
3. Robots are Melodramatic, 4. Cyber Neo-Cannibalism. |
