1) I found the Linke article to be the most interesting of the three. I understood that all three were connected on a very broad sense of looking at the human (mostly the female) body and how it has depiction/imagery has changed over time and is expected to change in the future. I did however make some smaller connections. The Balsamo and Linke article both brought forward the idea of devaluing the human body by breaking it down into only parts. The Bridges and Linke article both discussed a sort of history of body image.
2) Terms: Devalue, Automaton, hyperreality, political allegory
3) I really wasn’t that into Die Mensch-Maschine, although maybe getting further along in the writing will make it easier to understand or relate to. I really enjoyed the Linke article and the way that it talked about state control over an individuals body.
