Frog with Implanted Webserver

Hertz-Frog-Highres Gross web server. Experiments in Galvanism is the culmination of studio and gallery experiments in which a miniature computer is implanted into the dead body of a frog specimen. Akin to Damien Hirst’s bodies in formaldehyde, the frog is suspended in clear liquid contained in a glass cube, with a blue ethernet cable leading into its splayed abdomen. The computer stores a website that enables users to trigger physical movement in the corpse: the resulting movement can be seen in gallery, and through a live streaming webcamera. Link.

    Sounds like a variant of Zaphod’s Joo Janta 200 Super-Chromatic Peril Sensitive Sunglasses, albeit tuned for a more imminent danger.
