Stelarc — 'Your voice from my mouth'
Long story short: The Australian performance artist is transforming his body into an Internet portal. As part of the process, he has had what will eventually be a Bluetooth-enabled artificial ear (above) implanted in his left arm.

Hunh -- I checked out YouTube's comments to read what I just knew would be bunches of remarks about a**hole transplants, but there was nary a one. So disappointing.

So if I blast Stelarc in the face with a 12-gauge shotgun, that's just a negative art critique, right?

But why make a song and dance about it?
I have never understood what the ´performance´ is in performance art. It could be a performance in the way you say to a child ´well no need to make a performance out of it´.
In local dialect ...Stelarc has been pissing around with technology for years.

If you are a skilled musician, dancer or actor and want a government arts grant, try adding a transplant to your act.
