ABSTRACT
The idea of a human body as a vehicle precipitates the architecture of functionality. Functionality is also a quality that computer software offers with a range of operations where the aim is to continue functioning as efficiently as possible. If there is a breakdown or glitch in the system, forensics locates the problem for speedy repair. If it has an outdated operating system, then the system is upgraded. The synergistic system is presented in the poetic narrative “The Automorpher”, performed at Electronic Café in Los Angeles. A posthuman body could be an object-based system, rather than a disembodied agency, which trajectory imbues a lack of unity and inclusivity among variants. In the linear paleoanthropological approach, and as a chronological order, a human comes first, then transhuman, and then perhaps the posthuman or upload. Thus, the late stage transhuman could be pre-posthuman.
