“So that the human one is human, it must be in relation to what is not-human, with what certainly is out of him, but in its prolongation, under the terms of its implication in the life. This relation with what it is not constitutes the human being as alive, so that the human one exceeds its border in the effort even which aims to establish it. (…) It would be absurd to believe that the life is fully possible without dependence with regard to technology, which suggests that the human one, animality, depends on technology to live. In this direction, we think within the framework of the cyborg when we call in question the statute of human and that of the life. ” Judith Butler, To demolish the kind
(Austria, 94 ', video, 1992 - 1998)
