The Upholstered Woman | David Turnbull | Near-Future Fictions
Channel: Virtual Futures
Date: 2019-10-25

David Turnbull's story 'The Upholstered Woman’ read by the author at Virtual Futures' Near-Future Fictions on the theme of Boundless Bodies.

Bodies are often a product of the environment in which they are situated. Likewise, minds are partially shaped by both what they receive from the world around them, and the receptors that they use to process reality.

There is no guarantee that the Earth will be able to maintain its current ecosystems, or that the living beings of this world will remain on this planet.

Our authors consider how brains or bodies may adapt to different physical circumstances, spinning stories of manipulated creatures, novel forms of consciousness, distorted landscapes, or altered beings.
