The Latest in Radical Body Modification

This is a new concept in body modification: Emilio Gonzalez from Venezuela has graded his naval off. It gives us an idea what a laboratory clone birth stomach may look like. If you look closely at the picture you can see the naval does not exist. This is something that is such a disconnection from humanity, yet it is strangely beautiful.

Implications - In order to push the boundaries, rebellious people are looking for dramatic ways to dis-identify with the idea that there is a "normal human body" and also with the notion that convention is something to be praised. Furthermore, this trend reflects the normalization of cosmetic plastic surgery for non-medical reasons.
