I found it useful in a seminar last year about media because it disrupts notions of media/technology as technological objects and introduces the modification and management of the body as a technological act. It also has a connection to the biopolitical which could serve useful as a point of return when discussing Nakamura, The Exploit, and even boyd in some ways.
