Technologised bodies in art

Which artist's work do you find the most interesting?
Describe one work by that artist in detail, and explain, what is interesting about it.


I think Kazuhiko Hachiya's Inter Dis-Communication Machine is interesting.
When people wear this machine, they can see the view of the other person.The aim of creating this machine is to question the visual world.
It is interesting because it create a chance for people to exchange their view.Since it is not practical in the reality to exchange our vision.It seems to be impossible to do this.But through the using of this machine, we can share the view of different people.Maybe we can enjoy the scenery of one place without travelling to there.So,I think it is fun to exchange the views of people.
Besides, the design of this machine is interesting too.The use of black and white colours builds up a strong sense of oppoistion. This may wants to strengthen the feeling of individual identity that we cannot exchange our senses with the others in the reality.However, this notion may be contradictary to the idea of the possibility to exchange the visual world.Although it may be contradictary, this notable idea and the use of opposite colours create a good chance for people to think about the meaning of this work.Thus, it is a meaningful work to me.
