Description : The video of a performance with the same name made by Boryana Rossa and facilitated by Ultrafuturo collective. In the performance she stitches up her labia with surgical thread. The performance resides in the intersection of technology, ethics and human/machine identity and is dedicated to the future emergence of a new class of sex-less biological and cyborgian beings artificially created in bio-engineering labs. The real action is shown in the left frame and the right frame is a visualisation of data collected from the body of the performer with the use of EMG when the action was taking place.
