CGInetworks, a computer graphics, and visual effects company, has announced a contest where contestants must make a cyborg. The contest is easier for them to explain:
| Quote: |
Create an image depicting a mechanically altered or enhanced organic lifeform. The lifeforms do not necessarily have to be human. The mechnical additions need to have a clear purpose, whether for protection, for repair of an injury, for pure physical empowerment or enhancement or even for controlling or punishing the lifeform. The actual mechanical additions need to have an interaction and physical implementation into the body of the lifeform itself – ie it needs to actually have become a part of their body. This means that super x-ray glasses or pogo sticks that are permanently attached to their shoes do not count. The mechanical parts have to be incorporated into the actual body – the machine needs to have become one with the flesh via some sort of procedure.
Two categories will run simultaneously for the Machineflesh Challenge: 3D Stills and 2D Illustrations. This Challenge is a Work-In-Progress Challenge -- all contestants are required to post their work-in-progress images for community to critique/comment in order to qualify.

I have this strange feeling were going to see a lot of life-forms that look like they should be in Judge Dread, or some horror film. Read the full rules and what prizes you can win over in this general direction |
