Cyborg Theory Enrollment

Attention students of [livejournal.com profile] fandomhigh, human and otherwise –


Introduction to Cyborg Theory
Class to be held Monday nights at 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. – chiefly due to the fact that several films will be shown in this class to aid understanding of certain theories.

Course Description: This is an upper division elective course that will address the concepts of artificial intelligence, cyborgs, nano-tech, human-form robots from both a scientific and art (film, television, fine arts, etc) perspective.

Grade Evaluation: This is a pass/fail course. If you miss three classes, you will be put on probation from the class. After five classes missed, you will be allowed to withdraw or be given a failing grade.

This is a lecture/discussion course with a little research and a lot of fun films staring most of us, actually, errr….

Course Text: TBA

Instructor: I am Eighth of my kind; you may refer to me as Dr. Carter or Eighth, as you will. For more information, here's a brief history. And [livejournal.com profile] fandomhigh!RC is completely different (ie. far less slutty) than [livejournal.com profile] soapgatesgwun!RC, so don't get any funny ideas! *winks*


I highly recommend this class for all students who have had or will have dealings with artificial intelligence and the like. The best way to understand the enemy is to understand her perspective, eh?

Please comment if you wish to enroll.

Will we be learning about cylons and their evil whorish ways of sin?!?!?

Count me in.

Dude, robots? Like Data? Or that girl from Small Wonder?

I am so there.

Since droid armies seem to be a way of life in the galaxy, I should probably learn as much about them as possible.

Sign me up, please.

Děkuji vám. I am looking forward to it.

(ooc: Ha! Well, you could snark, but Radek would just smile and nod and then run and hide. I wish we had a McKay too. Oh the snark there would be...)

I really think I need to take this.

Um, ma'am? I'd like to take your class. *smiles* I need another class to fill out my schedule, and I've always been interested in how things work.

((Not to mention being a Cylon))

Thank you. *cheerful grin*

Do we get drunk and fight at parties over who gets to be 8?

(OOC: I've also been lamenting the lack of McKay... woe! Maybe at next sign up someone could be persuaded...?)

I'm already pretty familiar with magical robotics and evil mind control devices but some new perspectives would be nice...

[OOC: OMG - I almost spit water on my computer when I read about Small Wonder! Loved that show!!]

Hey Professor Blondie, got a seat open for me?

I am very interested in your class, Professor. Please put my name down.
