Abstract: This article investigates how scanning can be appropriated as part of practice-based research probing notions of body extension. It is a practice I developed alongside writing the artist’s book ‘Tupaia, Kybernetes & Lara Croft’, a monograph that could be seen as the so-called B-sides of my PhD - the book gathers ideas that did not make it into the final PhD version.
