We quantize the bending deformations of n-gon linkages by linearizing the
bending fields at a degenerate n-gon to get a representation of the Malcev Lie
algebra of the pure braid group. This linearization yields a flat connection on
the space of n distinct points on the complex line. We show that the monodromy
is (essentially) the Gassner representation.
