Transcript
00:00I'm hoping three or four weeks it heals and then I'll attach the sense and at that moment
00:15I'll be a cyborg with the ability to sense the magnetic field of the planet.
00:22It's crazy to imagine that I just did that, I have to say.
00:27This planet is governed by an electromagnetic field, other species connect to it, we just
00:33have no sense of it.
00:34Does it bother you at all that we can't really hug or anything like that?
00:40We can kiss.
00:41I want to become technology, not use technology.
00:45I need your help, maybe.
00:47Ouch!
00:48I didn't touch you!
00:49I know, I'm joking.
00:50There was this thing with the batteries that they could explode, so I was thinking, well
00:55I'm going to wake up and my husband is just exploding in bed.
01:00Do you actually feel that we experience the world differently?
01:04Yes.
01:05Can you give me an example?
01:08We never discussed it in like two years.
01:10You never asked me.
01:11But it's true.
01:12Our world is completely different.
01:17I married somebody who was working in the music business and now he hangs around with
01:24people that are into biohacking and transhumanism.
01:29It's such a new world to me.
01:31My wife, she had electrodes pushed into her nervous system.
01:35We electrically linked our nervous systems together.
01:39Being technology, it affects your relationship with the universe.
01:44No, no, no, no.
01:45I'm telling you, it gives me a deeper connection to you, not less of a connection.
01:50The more he goes down this road, the more different he will become.
01:55He's modifying his body with new senses and he's not going to stop.
02:02This is what we've been working on.
02:04That capsule can be put under the skin so there's no more of the kind of pain.
02:10It is difficult for me to understand how Scott sees the world.
02:14It really is.
02:15And I'm really terrified that he's not going to make us stay together.
02:19Unless I take that journey too.
02:23So yes, we shall see where this is going to take us.
