student web page responses to a project created from the following readings:

	Prophecies "Now as then we are creators of new technologies and stars of the imagined future....despite the clear dangers, hardly evaluating what it may be like to try to live in a world that is the realistic outcome of what we are creating and imaging." Bill Joy (Why the Future Doesn't Need Us)
	Cyborgs "A cyborg is a cybernetic organism, a hybrid of machine and organism, a creature of social reality as well as a creature of fiction. Social reality is lived social relations, our most important political construction, a world- changing fiction." Donna Haraway ( A Cyborg Manifesto)
	Photo Fakes “photography and the public have an unusual compact. "The camera does not lie" is a proposition that most of us know to be false yet we half believe anyway. This is a dynamic unique in the arts. The "willing suspension of disbelief" that Coleridge detected at the heart of poetic faith becomes in photographic faith a nearly automatic suspension.” Kenneth Brower (Photography in the Age of Falsification )
