Gordon's first post ever!

Hey, what's up? I am Gordon Tsui. I am currently studying in Asian studies (Year 2) in HKU SPACE. Nice to meet you guys!
I like Rap and Hip Hop. Therefore, I gonna show you a video combining Hip Hop and cyborg. Well, this video shows a battle between human beings and 'robots' (though both of them are actually human beings).
It is kinda cool right? Why I choose this is that though they are both human beings, the 'robots' just think they are not human. They are simply acting like robots. Another point is that these two groups are against each other (though it is just a battle). This gives me an impression that in people's mind, robots and humans are opposing each other!
I do not know if it is correct to say that dancing like a robot is cyborg. But one thing I am sure that is the idea of 'cyborg' has been in people's mind. Otherwise, there will not be any robot dance!
Check out this video and see if you agree!

  2. Hi Phoebe,
    This is true that many people are dancing like cyborgs. However, is it true to say that , from those guys, cyborgs seem to dominate human?

    Why I say this is because these people are obviously human, but they just try to be cyborgs. It is going to be a 'cool' thing to dance like a cyborg now.

    Due to its 'coolness', cyborg has been an important part in many people's mind! This again shows that human and cyborg can not be easily divided now!
