<div align="left">Picking up where the Vacanti mouse left off, Australian performance artist Stelarc went through with his plans to implant a <span class="rss:item">cell-cultivated ear </span> beneath the skin of his forearm earlier this year, and he's now showing off the results for the world to squirm at. Stelarc apparently isn't satisfied with his newfound appendage just yet, however, and is reportedly planning another surgery to give the ear "more definition." What's more, he's also hoping to implant a microphone inside the ear that'll use a Bluetooth transmitter to, you guessed it, broadcast what it hears over the Internet.<br /><br />[Via <a href="http://www.boingboing.net/2007/05/16/stelarc_posthumanist.html">Boing Boing</a>, photo courtesy of Nina Sellars]</div>
