Professor Rejects Camera Implanted In His Head

Posted by samzenpus on from the bad-ideas dept.

Stenchwarrior writes "A New York University professor temporarily removed the camera he had surgically installed in the back of his head to get rid of one of the apparatus' parts after his body rejected it, myFOXny.com reported Wednesday. Photography professor Wafaa Bilal was in near constant pain after part of a thumb-nail-size camera, implanted in December as part of an art project commissioned by a new museum in Qatar, was rejected by his body."

    Art is not practical, reasonable or logical.

    Thus, everything that is neither practical, reasonable or logical must be art!

    Doctor says, "Well, don't do that."
