Prosthesis Love is and/or is not much more

Foundation: Prosthesis is an extension or reorganization of the body that expresses and identifies the body.

                   Pro (s) thesis  (Anti (s) thesis?)

 The body as a system; the use of technology, and what are the prostheses which produce a material technology and can we look at the object production specifically? 

Knowledge as discourse as object of discourse



----Becoming one: losing the self: falling in love and how we changed.----

A series of blind dating with the same character only under various guises. My brother, Doug, set us up by entering school. One day, he brought home knowledge to his little sister saying, "Hey, Julie (my name at the time), I brought home knowledge for you; I think you'd get along. Julie, this is reading, grammar, history, math, science and many other names but you can just call it knowledge." Everyday, knowledge came home and settled in; before I knew it, I was mesmerized, head over hills, tagging along with my brother to discover more.  Knowledge and my brother were friends, but it was actually knowledge and me who hit it off. 

There was a time that I thought I had all of the knowledge's quirks figured out and focused only on the productive theories, bored of the production.  I truly thought we had separated for good and that the perpetual fascination of my life had vanished.  However, we just needed to move in a different house, a different structure - one in which I could engage in and with knowledge as I did ages past.  

It's been, but, more importantly   is   an adventure full of different interactions and relationships.  We've been together so long that it is normative: I cannot imagine my life without knowledge and it identifies every aspect of my being.
