[Yasmin_discussions] fashion & cyborg...

dear yasminers,

let me pull the discussion to less troubled waters after the military
dimension:) just remembered hussein chalayan's (cypriot-turkish-british
fashion designer / conceptual artist) great garment design which you can
see at this link:

this is probably one of the most "down to earth" and relatively "light"
implementations of the concept of cyborgness applied in arts & design.
pretty mundane huh:)

below are some more links related to "fashion"able dimensions of
"cyborg"ness:
