Professor Rejects Camera Implanted In His Head

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."

Why didn't he wear a strap on?

Did it never occur to him to just strap a camera to his head? Or just wear a hat with a camera on. Methinks that the main reason for having this implanted was to generate publicity for this project.

Art is not practical, reasonable or logical.

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

Stupid art tricks

This is right up there with locking yourself in a cage for month - a totally meaningless, useless trick meant only to get attention.

Well..

...I guess he didn't see that coming.

Man goes to a doctor and says, "Doctor, I hurts when I do this!"
Doctor says, "Well, don't do that."

Not everyone likes your artwork. Including your own body.

Ah, but hindsight is 20/20!
