A Cyborg Manifesto


Joe La Sac

YouTube

Posted: Mar 20, 2007

Cyborg theory, a branch of postmodern/posthuman theory, was originally created to criticize traditional notions of feminism. This video uses footage from Masamune Shirow’s “Ghost in the Shell” to interpret the text of Donna Haraway’s “A Cyborg Manifesto”.

The anime, like the manifesto, denies Cartesian dualism, as well as many other dualisms. Ghost in the Shell was used by Gilbert Ryle in an essay mocking the mind-body distinction.

The music is my own mix using a few tracks from Dieselboy’s album “Human Resource” and “Dungeon Master’s Guide”.
