The present article explores the relationship between the organic body, technology, and artistic creation within the framework of cyborg theatre. In the contemporary world, the pervasive integration of intelligent technologies into every aspect of human life has transformed the biological and cognitive boundaries of the body. As an emerging branch of performance art, cyborg theatre seeks to redefine the performer’s body through direct interaction with cybernetic systems, sensors, and bio-prosthetic devices. The aim of this study is to analyze how bio-based technologies are employed in the creation of technological bodies and to explain their impact on altering bodily perception and expression on stage. In this regard, Donnarumma’s seminal performances — Hypo Chrysos, Corpus Nil, and Alia: Zǔ tài — are examined as case studies to investigate the mechanisms through which connections between body, data, and machine are formed. The research adopts a qualitative, descriptive–interpretive methodology based on library resources and comparative observation of performances. The findings indicate that in Donnarumma’s works, the human body ceases to be a representational subject and instead becomes a data-driven system in which bio-signals are transformed into sound, light, and image, enabling the body to function as a self-regulating and dynamic entity. The notion of the Post-Conscious Body, introduced as an analytical neologism in this study, refers to a shift of consciousness from a mental level to one that is data-oriented and sensory, enabling intersubjective and intertechnological experiences. The results reveal that cyborg theatre in Donnarumma’s art moves from a representational model of corporeality toward an inter-systemic dynamism, producing a new aesthetics grounded in biological feedback loops—an aesthetics in which body, media, and consciousness are fused within a cybernetic network. This research concludes that cyborg theatre provides a valuable theoretical and experimental framework for rethinking the notions of body, subjectivity, and aesthetic experience in the post-organic era.
