Cyborg (1985) is Eduardo Kac's first digital artwork in color, made by the artist on a France Telecom Minitel editing console. In the image we see an anthropomorphic creature, half-human, half-robot, arms bent with clenched fists, shouting the neologism that expresses its uniqueness. The symbolism of clenched fists is well established as a form of civil rights activism; here, a hybrid lifeform proudly affirms its right to exist. The portmanteau cyborg appears in a comic book balloon, a nod to the artist's passion for the medium. In a world where identity was traditionally imposed along predetermined lines, the self-affirming act featured in this image stood as a beacon of freedom.
