Thanks for that link Barry. This is fascinating stuff. My art teacher while I lived in Japan in the mid-70's name is Stelarc. He's a Greek-born Australian "performance artist" who specialised in developing the notion of enhanced replacement body parts. He was starting to think about and design the stuff depicted in that video nearly 30 years ago - and it wowed us as his students. I reckon he was my favourite teacher of all time.
Just a couple of images:
