Wafaa Bilal

Bilal is an Iraqi American Artist. He is known for the project named "The 3rd I", where he had a titanium plate implanted in the back of his head to which a camera is attached (as seen in the photograph below).This was for a 1 year project which began on the 15th December 2010, where he captured an image per minute and streamed his images on the internet, this was along with the location of the images taken, so people knew his whereabouts. He wanted to capture the mundane whilst not knowing he was taking the photographs. On the 4th of February however he had to have this removed due to the pain it caused. Again in Bilals' case he has used an enhancement to his body using technology so is known to some as a cyborg.
