Hearing colours, sensing time: a day in the life of a ‘cyborg’ artist


Mataró (Spain) (AFP) – Neil Harbison is a self-described cyborg artist whose technological implants allow him to perceive things beyond the capability of a regular human. Despite seeing the world in greyscale, he can ‘hear’ colour thanks to an antenna which vibrates according to colours it detects. Now, he is testing out a new device designed to allow him to physically feel the passing of time.
