Open-access Thinking against dualisms: review of cyborg philosophy

In the condition of contemporary experience, the multiplicity of protheses, interfaces and machines immediately calls to think about the idea of cyborg as the concept which problematizes the relationships between nature and artifact. Cyborg bears diversity: it consists in a surgical intervention or an Organorg. Thierry Hoquet, the french philosopher, observes everyday artistic examples, proposes mapping of the place occupied by this technological body and by a new feminism, thought through these categories, in the posthuman.
