Wings was created in response to the proposal that the prosthetics of the future would be wings grown from the clients own tissue culture. I felt that, if this was the case, a certain amount of physical and psychological preparation would be necessary in order to avoid creating disillusioned, depressed and perhaps violent individuals with inert lumps of flesh on their back and an inability to adapt to their new physicality. Wings, a training manual provided to people when they place their order for their new wings, is designed to provide the necessary psychological and physical preparation for successful integration of surgically implanted human wings. It contains a fully developed physical optimisation program to enable range and subtlety of movement once the patient recovers from surgery, and it also contains hygiene and fashion advice.
