Talking with HSURAE, artist, educator, bio-researcher on embodied questions, the art of making glass phantom limbs, mirror box therapy as speculative philosophy, and why the body is already a site of perpetual augmentation. On weaving high heels out of softened bone, gut microbiome colonialism, intergenerational sequencing with her grandmother, karaoke as mistranslation engines, and the limits of empathy as pedagogical virtue. On scar tissue as kintsugi, feces as a portal to human agency, and fibroblasts growing on glass not as object but as time-bound collaborator. Exploring tongue-based sight devices, bone extracts spun into jewelry, human ears grown on arms, and why all bodies are partially disabled, already entangled in the flows of medical devices, nationhood, and post-human speculation. On the ecological horrors of processing ultra-purified water, the irreducibility of artificial intelligence as an aesthetic quality, prayer rituals for semiconductor droughts, and what it means to make “Taiwanese art” in the age of AI. Also: on collecting rocks, deep time, and the slow, sacred practice of stitching of identity and memory into human hair.On SpectrumsThis dichotomy between abled bodies and disabled bodies is not necessary or a helpful differentiation - all of our bodies are essentially disabled or disability is something that all of us would have to come to terms with earlier or later. I see it really as a flow instead of distinct categorizationsOn Art for Generating QuestionsI studied occupational therapy and I worked as a therapist… but during that time I would visit art museums by myself. And in those visits I found that there was a sort of opening or space within art that seemed to be like inviting curiosity, inviting questions, and experimentation that I, I had not encountered in my previous studies… But there were moments during my education to study to be a therapist where I found myself asking questions that were unanswerable or coming up to the limits of empirical reasoning... I wasn't trying to look for answers, really. I was looking for a space where I could ask more questions… On Ultra Pure Water TSMC alone accounts for 38% of the country's daily water usage.And it's not even enough. They still like purchase water from construction sites, for example, because the creation of AI chips requires like thousands of washing with what's called ultra pure water. So it's like water that is a thousand times pure than tap water.On the SpiritualI collect rocks wherever I go, and I wouldn't say I worship the rocks, but that seems to be the closest spiritual practice in my life.Visit hsurae.com/ for more information. Postscript from Rae:Regarding the Phantom Limb Series: It came together with the help of many: TAs, classmates, faculty at RISD. In glassblowing, especially with large or experimental forms, it's almost never a solo effort. There's an improvised choreography in the hot shop, and I leaned heavily on that. At the time, I didn't always know how to properly credit that kind of fluid, mutual support. But over the years, I've become more intentional about acknowledging those contributions.That ethos continues in my current work. Two of my ongoing projects are being developed under a loose, evolving collective called Lythologies. It's not a fixed group, but rather a dispersed, flexible way of holding collaboration, one that shifts and grows with each project.Also, I wanted to highlight two upcoming exhibitions:* Stories Written by the Sky, NTMoFA, Taiwan (10/25–12/14) (* Human Machine, EWERK Luckenwalde, Germany (9/20–12/14)Selections and images of some of Hsurae's pieces discussed during interviewAll photos credit: hsurae.com/ Get full access to Leafbox at leafbox.substack.com/subscribe

In recent years, advancements in neural interface technology have revolutionized the field of prosthetics, offering unprecedented capabilities to amputees and significantly improving their quality of life. The integration of bioelectrical signals, artificial intelligence (AI), and advanced robotics has led to the development of sophisticated prosthetic devices that not only mimic natural limb functions but also provide users with intuitive control and enhanced functionality. OYMotion represents remarkable innovations in neural interface technology and their transformative impact on prosthetics.Neural Interface Technology Enhances ProstheticsAt the heart of this technological advancement is the ability to capture and interpret human bioelectrical signals, particularly muscle and brainwave activity. Companies like OYMotion are at the forefront of this innovation, developing high-tech solutions that utilize electromyography (EMG) sensors and electroencephalography (EEG) technology. EMG sensors can detect electrical signals generated by muscle contractions, allowing prosthetic limbs to respond to the user's intentions with remarkable accuracy. For instance, an EMG armband can be placed on the residual limb of an amputee, capturing muscle signals that correspond to specific movements. These signals are then processed by AI algorithms, enabling the prosthetic hand to perform various gestures, such as grasping or pointing, with fluidity and precision.Beyond muscle signals, the exploration of brainwave activity through EEG technology further expands the possibilities of neural interface applications. EEG helmets can capture brainwave signals, enabling researchers to study brain function and diagnose neurological conditions such as Alzheimer's disease. In the context of prosthetics, this technology could lead to even more advanced control mechanisms. By interpreting brain signals, future prosthetic devices may allow users to control their limbs directly with their thoughts, eliminating the need for physical muscle contractions. This direct brain-to-device communication represents the next frontier in prosthetic technology.Integrating AI Into the InterfaceThe integration of AI into prosthetics is a game-changer. Through machine learning, the AI system can be trained to associate specific neural signals with corresponding actions. This training process allows the prosthetic device to adapt to the user's unique muscle signals, resulting in a personalized experience that mimics the natural movement of a biological hand. OYMotion's neurobiotic prosthetic hand, for example, is capable of executing 27 predefined gestures, providing users with a range of functionalities that enhance their day-to-day activities. This level of control not only restores a sense of agency to amputees but also empowers them to engage more fully in their personal and professional lives.Moreover, the versatility of neural interface technology extends to industrial applications as well. For instance, robotic systems controlled by neural interfaces can be employed in hazardous environments, such as nuclear facilities, where human operators are at risk. By using motion capture technology, workers can control robotic limbs from a safe distance, allowing for precise manipulation of dangerous materials without the inherent risks associated with direct human involvement. This capability not only enhances safety but also increases efficiency in high-stakes industries.Challenges Still to OvercomeDespite the remarkable advancements, challenges remain in the widespread adoption of OYMotion's neural interface technology in prosthetics. Issues such as cost, accessibility, and the need for further research and development must be addressed to ensure that these life-changing devices are available to all who need them. Nonetheless, the progress made thus far is a testament to the potential of neural interface technology to enhance the lives of amputees and individuals with mobility challenges.Conclusion: Using Neural Technology to Restore MotionIn conclusion, OYMotion's neural interface technology is transforming the landscape of prosthetics by bridging the gap between human intention and machine response. Through the integration of bioelectrical signal capture, AI algorithms, and advanced robotics, prosthetic devices are becoming more intuitive, responsive, and capable of mimicking natural limb movements. As research continues and technology evolves, the future promises even greater advancements, potentially allowing users to control their prosthetics with their thoughts. This evolution not only enhances the functionality of prosthetics but also restores a sense of autonomy and dignity to individuals who have faced the challenges of limb loss. The journey of neural interface technology in prosthetics is just beginning, and its impact is poised to be profound and far-reaching.Interview by Scott Ertz of F5 Live: Refreshing Technology.Sponsored by: Get $5 to protect your credit card information online with Privacy.

The SAGE Handbook of Human-Machine Communication (Sage, 2023) has been designed to serve as the touchstone text for researchers and scholars engaging in new research in this fast-developing field. Chapters provide a comprehensive grounding of the history, methods, debates and theories that contribute to the study of human-machine communication. Further to this, the Handbook provides a point of departure for theorizing interactions between people and technologies that are functioning in the role of communicators, and for considering the theoretical and methodological implications of machines performing traditionally ‘human' roles. This makes the Handbook the first of its kind, and a valuable resource for students and scholars across areas such as communication, media and information studies, and computer science, as well as for practitioners, engineers and researchers interested in the foundational elements of this emerging field.  Among the chapters you will find in this book are: Machines are Us: An Excursion in the History of HMC; Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) and Human–Machine Communication (HMC); Philosophical Contexts and Consequences of Human–Machine Communication; An ethnography for studying HMC: What can we learn from observing how humans communicate with machines?; Feminist, Postcolonial, and Crip Approaches to Human-Machine Communication Methodology; AI, Human–Machine Communication and Deception; Human-Machine Communication in Marketing and Advertising; and Conceptualizing Empathic Child–Robot Communication.
