Would Having A Prosthetic Arm Be Enough For You? - Stelarc In Conversation With Liz Carr

Legendary artist Stelarc returns to FACT after his work being part of 2008's sk-interfaces exhibition. Being Human, are we obsolete? At what point do we accept that we have become machines? Known for having an ear transplanted on his arm, this influential Greek/Australian-based performance artist incorporated themes of cyborgization and other human-machine interfaces in his work.

Stelarc in conversation with Liz Carr in the third of a programme of annual lectures in honour of FACT's late Chairman Roy Stringer.

Part of the tenth edition of DaDaFest International 2010, the UK's largest Disability and Deaf Arts Festival.
