Stelarc Artwork Response

        The way that Stelarc treats the human body through his artwork is interesting. Not really interesting in a good way but still interesting. I do not find Stelarc's artwork disturbing but rather fascinating, in a creepy way. Not only did he push his body past his limit but he also conquered the common thought of "pain". Although, he does say he experiences pain throughout his hangings, he has trained his body or rather, the mental stability of himself to ignore that pain.
        I do believe that our body needs to be evolved but not manually. We should let it evolve over time because if we were to do it manually I fear that something is going to go wrong.
