"Augmented Animals"

September 22, 2005 in animal

"Augmented Animals" by James Auger is a booklet published in 2011. It describes various devices and equipments for animals, mostly based on a transfer of human's technologies developed for the needs of other species: Pigeon LED leg display, LED Dog Tail Communicator, Vertical impact protection jacket for rodents, etc.

Why do I blog this? Because such speculations are both fascinating about what is says about human needs/fears, and regarding the objectification of animals.
