Cyborg Month @ O'Vineyards

Yo, it’s cyborg month.

Here are some wine cyborgs to get you thinking:

wine tasting robot

vineyard pruning robot

And if you think some of these aren’t strictly cyborgs, then I refer you to this essay about how all humans who use tools are pretty much cyborgs.  And this Dinosaur Comic about the exact same theme in much fewer words.  It’s a very fine line between walking around a city where EVERYBODY has iPods plugged into their ears and a society where we all look like Lobot.

Enjoy cyborg month. Feel free to add links in the comments if you know other wine related technology that makes us look more like cyborgs.

And if you’re in London tonight, drink one for me! I’m sorry that I couldn’t be there with you.  Darn the blend of Ryan Air and French Air Traffic Control strikes.  I’ll see you in November barring any strikes or volcanic eruptions or cyborg rebellions.  :-/

    Follow the signs to Mazamet/ Villemoustaussou using the D118. At the end of the last straight part of D118, you will come to a roundabout with the Dyneff gas station.
  2. Take the exit towards Pennautier. Continue 500m to a small roundabout and go straight over.
  3. Look out for the second road on your right, Avenue des Cévennes which curves up hill (about 1km) to Avenue de la Montagne Noire on the left.
  4. At the last juction, bear left. the road sign “Ave de la Montagne Noire” (confusing as it seems to show a right turn)
  5. After another 500m you will see our red brick color building in the middle of the vines.
