Above it the somewhat self-explanatory "Extra Ear on Arm," by the artist Stelarc. You can catch this work and several other mind-warping pieces at the new show at the Exit Art gallery in Manhattan. From the marketing copy:
Corpus Extremus (LIFE+) features more than a dozen international artists who are using bio- and media-technologies to investigate questions of life and death.
