TY - JOUR AB - Purpose– To celebrate the life and achievements of Felix Geyer by addressing issues of mutual interest, in a light‐hearted and informative fashion.Design/methodology/approach– Adopts a polemical style that encapsulates the conclusions that will appeal to many types and affiliations of reader.Findings– That, on the one hand, Felix Geyer is a cool dude who once smoked cigars and wore a raincoat. That, on the other hand, by walking around with “implants” in his body, and by celebrating/publicising this fact to the mass media, Kevin Warwick raised issues that remind us of the cult of the dandy.Originality/value– Style, agenda, and range of concerns are unorthodox.
