Grinders: Tomorrow’s Cyberpunks are Here Today [NSFW]
by David Forbes
Installing magnets, microchips and sensors in their own bodies — this is
how cyberpunk biohackers went from fiction to reality.
In the early part of 2011, Sovereign Bleak walked into a German hospital
and asked for a trauma kit. A medical assistant friend also stole some
xylocaine — a topical anesthetic — from a local clinic. The two got
together with a few others, cut open their fingers, inserted specially
designed magnets and stitched themselves back up, recording the whole
procedure. The high-quality video they produced has a happy score while
going through the step-by-step process: numb, cut, install.
