  4. THE MAN WHO MISTOOKA COMPUTERFOR HIS HAND • Hybrid, brain-computer, systems. • new physical pathways for interacting with the world • the computer learns about the brain while the brain is constantly changing • Metaphor: • from “desktop” to “body part”.

  5. OUR BODIES OURSELVES? • Service robots under neural control. • Sensation and action at a distance. • Stimulating the brain. Probotics/Jim Judkis Ethics, liminality, fear, and the “uncanny”. Honda robot
