cyborg notes

I read in Edge* that Eye-Toy is working on an interface that will read facial expressions. Remember in the old days when AI advancements used to pose questions for ethical and philosophical debate?

Speaking of play, how about a tiny game that you ingest - taken in capsule form. A nanotech neurotransmitter that just stimulates the relevant brain bits. You can have it running in the background and turn your attention on and off of it at will. Come to think of it, the searchable i-tunes implant database will be pretty nice too. Volume control inside your head. Ears are just for wetware interface and avoiding physical impacts. I'm also waiting for the small muscle mod chip from Social Science™ that allows you to select and implement a variety of facial expressions so you don't have to leave your carapace gawping and drooling while you tend to important internal matters.

*sorry I can't find the quote online - read it in hard copy and then lent it to my friend
