A system has been developed for the actuation of a body. A touch - screen interface to a multiple muscle stimulator allows the body's movements to be programmed by touching the muscle - sites on the computer model. Orange flesh maps the possible sites, red flesh indicates the actuated muscle(s). The sequence of motions can be replayed continuously with its loop function. As well as choreography by pressing, it is possible to paste sequences together from a library of gesture icons. The improvise function allows random motions to be superimposed. The system allows stimulation of the programmed movement for analysis and evaluation before transmission to actuate the body. At a lower stimulation level, it is a body prompting system; at a higher stimulation level, it becomes a body actuation system. With the third hand attached, the stimbod software results in a split body: with voltage - in on the LHS choreographing limb movements and voltage - out on the RHS controlling the Third Hand. Stimbod also becomes the seductive interface for the remote actuation of a body - the means by which a motion is displaced and repositioned from one body to another body in another place. Electronically connected and coupled bodies can extrude agency, with a body's awareness neither being "all - here" nor "all - there".
