In 1994 Haraway sent me a draft of “Mice into Wormholes: A Techno-science Fugue in Two Parts.” It was an implosion of science and technology loaded with images. I loved the visual possibilities of what she referred to as “startling hybrids of the human and inhuman in technoscience. “ Shaping technoscience is a high stakes game, she wrote, “a form of life.” I was captivated by her description of the herbicide-resistant crops and genetically engineered plants. It was hard to resist combining a tomato and a flounder in a painting. But the image that lingered was of poor little OncoMouse, the first patented life form.
