사이보그를 결정짓는 구성요소
„Cyborg technologies can be restorative, in that they restore lost functions and replace lost organs and limbs; they can be normalizing, in that they restore some creature to indistinguishable normality; they can be ambiguously reconfiguring, creating posthuman creatures equal to but different from humans, like what one is now when interacting with other creatures in cyberspace or, in the future, the type of modifications proto-humans will undergo to live in space or under the sea having given up the comforts of terrestrial existence; and they can be enhancing, the aim of most military and industrial research, and what those with cyborg envy or even cyborg-philia fantasize.”³
