Meet biohacker Anastasia Synn, magician with 26 self-implanted microchips and magnets under her skin

[Anastasia] Synn has 26 microchips and magnets implanted throughout her body. Unlike many biohackers who experiment purely out of personal interest, Synn does it for her magic career. These days, sheโ€™s doing less performing on stage and spending more time designing bodily implants for other magicians.

STAT sat down with Synn on [September 1] at โ€œBiohack the Planetโ€ to learn more about her bodily implants.

[STAT:] What do you use these implants to do?

[Synn:] Iโ€™m a magician, so I use them in my magic act. And I also use them in my day-to-day life โ€” to unlock my door at home.

The computer that I want to put my leg that weโ€™re working on right now will actually have an NFC and a Wi-Fi and a Bluetooth. [NFC, or near field communication, is a technology that uses magnetic fields to connect two devices when theyโ€™re brought into close proximity with each other.]

Itโ€™ll be able to read something by NFC, transfer it to my phone with Wi-Fi, transfer it to my hairpiece with Bluetooth, and then vibrate the magnet in my ear so I can receive secret information that no one else can hear.
