I'd like to introduce a new member of the Cynic Librarian blog team: hamlet_machine. This is the nom de plume for a writer who's seen better times. Taking his persona from the words made by East German playwright Heiner Muller, Mr. hamlet_machine finds it easy to verbalize and put into play some thoughts that skim the surface of cybernetic and biological life forms. The density of his newspeak is perhaps offset by a biting and acid humor which is not always apparent but most often fills each word with irony--something that I myself appreciate. More Borg than Borgia, I imagine his faltering heart has brought to life the despirs of individuality while longing for the collective.
