Abstract

The human body is more than a physical organism; it is a bilateral gate, where both perception and communication occurs. Throughout history, the human body has been painted, deformed and covered in order to express ideas, beliefs and ideologies. With great innovations in science and technology, the human body has been altered, transformed and extended through artefacts both perceptually and cognitively. There is a shift in technologies as desktop devices to technologies that intensely penetrate our lives and bodies. While this chapter focuses on three ways of extending the human body—skin, clothes and technology -, it argues the fact that with today’s technologies these three mediums can be synthesized into one that has vanished from consciousness and serve for an embodied interaction.
