We are becoming interconnected with technology biologically in different ways then we know it. If you take it look for an example a diabetic, they use technology to check their sugar levels. Field like the medical field have found ways to use technology biologically, for a diabetic there is now apps that sync from the sugar level tracker onto their phone with their daily sugar dose. When reading the article, “Data Made Flesh”, by Euegene Thacker, “Within biotech research, this is known as the field of “bioinformatics,” which is simply the application of computer technology to life science research.” Euegene Thacker continues to say that “characterizing biotech is a unique relationship between the biological and the informatic.” Then in the “A Conversation with Euegene Thacker”, he mentions that “The greatest achievement of biotechnics would not be the transformation of all life into machines, but the resurrection of life that is perfected biology, more biological than the biological itself, the redemption of biology.” I believe this is true, biotechnics have improved and rescued many lives, when one thinks about the future, there would be more advances and more options for people who are dealing with different medical issues.
