Resumo da Palestra

The Extensions of Man - Hacking the Body – Prosthetics The term prosthetics indicates an addition or extension. The word "prosthetics" was included in medical terminology in the 16th Century. Three centuries later, Marshall McLuhan wrote in his seminal book Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man first published in 1964: Today, when we have extended all parts of our bodies and senses by technology we are haunted by the need for an outer consensus of technology and experience that would raise our communal lives to the level of a world-wide consensus. McLuhan also argued that 'any medium whatever is an extension, a projection in space or in time, of our various senses." He postulated that while earlier technologies extended one part of the body (for instance the wheel extending the foot), the new electronic technologies extended the whole nervous system. The interpretation of the "Extension of Man" by artists is only one of several aspects regarding prosthetics. Engineering and material development contexts are extremely significant both in theoretical and practical applications of prosthetics. We have seen artificial limbs for amputees and the Cheetah foot for track and field athletes. Cancer survivors can have their breasts reconstructed if they've lost them in treatment. DIY prosthetics found its way to wider audience parallel with increased development of 3D printing, Arduino microcontrollers, hands-on electronics, open source hardware and wearable technology in hacker-spaces and maker-spaces around the globe.
