The life of a cyborg, like a hypertext narrative, has no discernible beginning or end. According to Haraway, the “cyborg has no origin story in the Western sense. [. . .] An origin story in the ‘Western’, humanist sense depends on the myth of original unity” (“CM” 150-51). The notion of an original or authoritative reading implies that there was a time before contested interpretations, before a fall into difference and multiplicity. But literary hypertexts have no original reading. The reader always begins in medias res. Thus, there is no need to (re)construct an original intention or authoritative interpretation. There is no original story because all readings are different, on the surface of the text as well at deeper hermeneutic levels.
