			===Definition===
			Prosthetic culture is the idea that human culture is comprised of human and object interaction, specifically the set of objects from the earliest tools to the most advanced artificial limbs. Applied to digital culture, prosthetic culture treats the computer as an external brain or cybernetic mental attachment. Humans shed prosthetic devices, whether virtual or real, increasingly quickly.

	In the same week Visual Prosthetics is available on-line (you need special access) to be followed soon with hard copies. The book covers all retinal implant research projects as well as those for optic nerve, LGN, and cortical visual prostheses. It starts out with anatomy and physiology, and ends with simulations and rehabilitation of prosthetic vision.

The idea that human culture is comprised of human and object interaction, specifically the set of objects from the earliest tools to the most advanced artificial limbs. Applied to digital culture, prosthetic culture treats the computer as an external brain or cybernetic mental attachment. Humans shed prosthetic devices, whether virtual or real, increasingly quickly.
