Disassembly-Reassembly

What is the relationship between body-fixated Cyborg Theory and a body's whose original integrity has been disassembled, and reassembled with cyborg extentions?

The image of the child is derived from a photo taken at my first communion in 1959. I chose this image because it reflects the essential self that is the same regardless of outward changes.

I am interested in how the viewer responds to the same body with and without visible "cyborgisms".

The viewer is invited to select and apply labels to these images.
