Anthropomorphic bivalves with micro-cyborg corporeality, the clam, the armored body crusted scaled flesh, overlay to the clean imperfect labial birth stone, the pearls opposite representing this Ghost in the Shell- did we mention cyborgs - the body adorned, internetted to its surroundings like Swiss Victorinox bodies. The Clam is the representation of the human, examples of talking clams accelerating.
