Cyberman plot

Steve Mann is the world's first cyborg: half human, half computer. With a computer that he developed and built himself, he interprets and manipulates the reality that he registers through a camera mounted in his glasses. Moreover, it is connected to the internet so that everyone can see the world through his eyes. What he saw, among other things, was how documentary maker Peter Lynch filmed him. Lynch followed the genius scientist-cum-artist on his quest for technological and ethical boundaries. Mann uses his inventions as a weapon against the manipulation of multinationals and mass media, both on a micro and macro level. For example, he questions apparently obvious things (such as a film ban in a shop even though there are security cameras there) and he speaks to halls full of scientists at conferences.
