Neil Harbisson is a contemporary artist who hears colors. He deliberately chose to hear colors and to make that happen, he underwent surgery which has caused him to become the first person ever to be issued a government ID recognizing him as a cyborg. Harbisson has a condition known as achromatopsia. For him and others with complete achromatopsia, all three types of cones in the retina are nonfunctional. He sees using only his rods meaning there is no color in his vision. It is a relatively rare condition affecting only about one in every 30,000 people. The thing that is even more rare though is Harbisson's management of the condition. First off, you might expect someone with this condition not to gravitate toward the arts, but while color is one of the elements of art, it is not required. Art is about human expression and creativity. Harbisson found a very creative means of enhancing his senses. Neil Harbisson has an antenna. Basically, there is a camera at the end of the antenna. A digital camera detects light and stores it as electrical signals. Inside the antenna, the colors are translated into sound. Different hues or colors are converted to different sound frequencies. It is actually attuned to even detect light that is invisible in the infrared and ultraviolet spectra.

Why does a man want to be a cyborg and have an antenna implanted in his head? Can the merge between a human and technology actually mean a closer step to nature instead of the opposite? It all started with the urge of sensing colours. Neil was born colour blind, a trigger that made him explore his senses with technology. As a musician and artist he has gathered people with the same philosophy and started a foundation called https://www.cyborgfoundation.com/ "There are so many people who want to be closer to nature with help of technology. We must admit that this can be a way of evolve together with our planet instead of increasing the distance." Listen to the man with very special senses and a rare vision. This is Brainfood with Lydia.

Marco Mancuso"Chimera"Il corpo espanso per una nuova ecosofia dell'arteMimesis Edizioniwww.mimesisedizioni.itChimera. Il Corpo Espanso per una nuova ecosofia dell'arte individua un punto di incontro tra arte e design, tecnologia e scienza nell'indagine sul corpo umano in dialogo con il contesto che lo circonda. La sua unicità, quella di evidenziare e mettere a sistema caratteristiche comuni e vicinanze nelle opere e nelle pratiche di artisti e designer che pongono il rapporto tra noi e l'ambiente al centro della loro poetica. Il confronto con creativi e progettisti come Heather Dewey-Hagborg, Marco Donnarumma, Sputniko!, Margherita Pevere, Neil Harbisson e Anouk Wipprecht, consente infatti di individuare le caratteristiche di quello che viene qui definito Corpo Espanso: una chimera che abbatte i binarismi material-semiotici e consente di modellare nuovi rapporti entangled tra entità umane e non-umane. Riprendendo alcune importanti ricerche ed esperienze del Novecento e ponendole in dialogo con gli sviluppi più recenti nei campi delle neuroscienze, delle biotecnologie, della prostetica e del bodyhacking, Marco Mancuso – critico e studioso, una delle voci più autorevoli del panorama nazionale e internazionale - tramite un'inedita e radicale messa a sistema delle principali correnti del pensiero postumano, suggerisce un'alternativa agli immaginari transumani, le distopie antropocentriche e le derive ipermediali dei nostri corpi aprendo, in modo originale e coraggioso, a nuove dimensioni relazionali fluide, queer, non-gerarchiche ed egualitarie dell'essere umano su questo pianeta.Marco Mancuso è critico e curatore di arte contemporanea, nel rapporto con tecnologia e scienza e nel dialogo con gli ambiti del design, dell'architettura e del suono. Professore presso il Politecnico delle Arti di Bergamo, docente presso l'Università di Bologna e lectuter per il Node Center for Curatorial Studies di Berlino, è dottore di ricerca in Culture Digitali presso l'Università Iuav di Venezia. Si interessa a come il discorso interdisciplinare osserva le diverse modalità con cui la tecnoscienza influenza la società e il rapporto tra essere umano e ambiente, studiando parallelamente l'evoluzione delle dinamiche progettuali, produttive e di mercato della media art e dell'arte digitale. Fondatore e direttore del progetto Digicult, i suoi saggi e interviste sono apparsi sul portale e in numerose riviste, libri e cataloghi. Ha curato mostre ed eventi a livello nazionale e internazionale, partecipa a conferenze, tavole rotonde ed è stato partner di festival, media lab e istituzioni tra cui transmediale, Impakt, V2, Baltan Labs, Goethe Institut, Sonar+D, Sonic Acts, Elektra, STRP, Todaysart, Subtle Technologies. È partner del programma EMAP/EMARE, è tra i fondatori del centro studi SSH! - Sound Studies Hub dello Iuav di Venezia e ha pubblicato i libri "Arte, Tecnologia e Scienza" (2018) e “Intervista con la New Media Art" (2020) per Mimesis Edizioni.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itQuesto show fa parte del network Spreaker Prime.

Neil Harbisson is the world's first cyborg, neither human nor machine but a hybrid mix. Since 2004 when he got an antenna implanted in his skull he can perceive color as sound, receive phone calls directly to his head, listen in on the ultraviolet radiation of outer space, and more. He is part of a small community of experimental artists pushing the bounds of what it means to be human, sometimes reluctant spokespeople for a life in which biology and technology are inextricably intertwined. Today we speak about his way of perceiving the world, what it means to open your consciousness to direct internet access and external control; identity, sanity, reality, ethics, and our future as a species.   You can find more about Neil here: http://www.cyborgarts.com/ (www.cyborgarts.com)  https://www.instagram.com/neilharbisson/ (https://www.instagram.com/neilharbisson/) Primal Nature is a podcast and center for psychedelic therapy in rural Spain. http://www.primalnature.eu (www.primalnature.eu)

I am a massive science fiction geek. Ever since I was young, I've been captivated by tales of interstellar adventure, aliens, robots, and cutting-edge technology. I always loved the concept of cyborgs. That's a human-robot hybrid. They are ordinary humans who have been enhanced in some way by technology; more intelligence, faster speed or better resilience to disease and damage. Great ideas, but I never thought I'd see them in my lifetime. 我是一个庞大的科幻极客。从小，我就被星际冒险、外星人、机器人和尖端技术的故事迷住了。我一直很喜欢电子人的概念。那是人机混合体。他们是被科技以某种方式增强的普通人；更多的智慧、更快的速度或更好的抵抗疾病和伤害的能力。伟大的想法，但我从没想过我会在有生之年看到它们。Well, I stand corrected. Integrated biology and technology is already here and people have wasted no time utilising it to re-engineer their bodies. Take, for example, Neil Harbisson, who has an antenna protruding from his head that allows him to hear colour, or Moon Ribas, who has an implant that allows her to sense seismic activity. Now, neither are abilities that I particularly covet, but it's a start.好吧，我的立场是正确的。综合生物学和技术已经出现，人们没有浪费时间利用它来重新设计他们的身体。例如，Neil Harbisson 的头部伸出一根天线，可以让他听到颜色，或者 Moon Ribas，她的植入物可以让她感知地震活动。现在，我特别渴望的能力也不是，但这是一个开始。And it doesn't end there. As technology increases so too will our ability to enhance ourselves through it. One of the latest developments is the graphene tattoo. Not an actual tattoo at all, but more like a patch, the graphene tattoo could revolutionise biomedical monitoring.它并没有就此结束。随着科技的进步，我们通过科技提升自我的能力也会随之提升。最新的发展之一是石墨烯纹身。根本不是真正的纹身，而是更像一个补丁，石墨烯纹身可以彻底改变生物医学监测。It looks much like a transparent plaster, but with a gold coloured circuit board contained within it. This circuit is the graphene. Graphene is a form of carbon, but it's 200 times stronger than steel and conducts electricity better than gold, which is the component typically used in electronics.它看起来很像透明的石膏，但里面有一块金色的电路板。这个电路就是石墨烯。石墨烯是碳的一种形式，但它的强度是钢的 200 倍，导电性能也比金更好，金是电子产品中常用的成分。The human body is basically an electrical machine. When in contact with the skin, the graphene in the plaster is able to read and conduct the electricity – allowing it to easily be used as a medical monitor for heart-rate and pulse, among other things. And even more, graphene tattoos can be used as bioelectronic controllers, as demonstrated by one engineer who attached them to his eyelids in order to direct which way a drone flew, just by looking with his eyes!人体基本上是一台电机。当与皮肤接触时，膏药中的石墨烯能够读取并传导电流——使其可以轻松用作心率和脉搏等医疗监测器。更重要的是，石墨烯纹身可以用作生物电子控制器，正如一位工程师所展示的那样，他将纹身贴在眼睑上，以便通过眼睛观察无人机的飞行方向！I know that biotechnology is a long way from allowing humans to be able to lift a car or run half-way around the world in a single day, like I wanted to be able to do when I was a child. But, it's improving all the time and once the price of graphene falls, who knows what else we'll be able to do? I'll see you in the future!我知道生物技术距离让人类能够在一天内举起汽车或绕半个地球跑，就像我小时候想做的那样，还有很长的路要走。但是，它一直在改善，一旦石墨烯的价格下降，谁知道我们还能做些什么呢？我会在未来见到你！词汇表geek 呆子，极客interstellar 星际的cutting-edge 前沿的cyborg 半机械人hybrid 混合体enhanced 强化的，增强的integrated 合成一体的re-engineer 重建，重新组合antenna 触角protrude 伸出implant 植入seismic 地震的，造成严重破坏的covet 渴望，贪求 graphene 石墨烯patch 贴布，贴片transparent 透明的circuit board 电路版carbon 碳conduct 传导（电）component 零部件，组成部分bioelectronic 生物电子的

Auch wenn der Begriff Cyborg bereits im Jahr 1960 das erste Mal verwendet wurde, so ist die Verschmelzung von Mensch und Maschine vor allem in den letzten 10 Jahren in der Realität angekommen. Gerade in der Medizin finden sogenannte Menschen-Optimierungen häufig Anwendung. Aber auch als Alltagshelfer werden heute schon unter der Haut implantierte Funkchips eingesetzt. Michael und Timo erarbeiten in dieser Episode ein Thema, welches aufgrund der scheinbar grenzenlosen Möglichkeiten wirklich fasziniert aber auch einige politische und ethische Fragen offen lässt.

Instead of seeing colour, Neil Harbisson can hear colour. Harbisson, who was born colourblind, is best known for being the first person in the world with an antenna implanted in his skull. Harbisson describes himself as someone who can "hear" colour. Rian van Heerden spoke to the Spanish-born British-Irish cyborg.

Hace unos años estaba tomando desayuno en un hotel de Buenos Aires, Argentina, y frente a mí había un tipo que a principios de siglo había decidido ponerse una antena en la cabeza. Pero no un gorro ni un adorno. ¡Una antena! Y se la injertó en el cuero cabelludo. ¿Por qué? ¿Para qué? ¿Cómo Neil Harbisson se transformó en el primer cyborg de la historia? Acá la respuesta.

Mint Season 2 episode 2 welcomes Neil Harbisson and Pol Lombarte, two biohacking artists leveraging NFTs to remotely alter their bodies. Cyborg-artist Neil Harbisson was born color blind but he can ‘feel' and ‘hear' colors, thanks to a WiFi-enabled bone-conduction antenna that is permanently implanted into his skull. Together, Neil and Pol experimented with a new state of NFTs where the buyer can directly send colors into Harbisson's head. On the side, his friend, Pol Lombarte sold ‘access' to his heartbeat as an NFT where the buyer can alter his heart rate from afar at any point in time of the day.In this episode we talk about the early days of transitioning into a cyborg, the curiosity behind selling access to one's body, fears and concerns behind this level of biological manipulation, how much he'd consider selling the NFT for, the vision behind this level of experimentation, and so much more.I hope you enjoy our conversation.Learn more by visiting: https://adamlevy.io/mint

Neil Harbisson is a British-born contemporary artist and cyborg activist best known for having an antenna implanted in his skull and for being officially recognized as a cyborg by the government. The antenna allows him to perceive visible and invisible colors via audible vibrations in his skull including infrareds and ultraviolets as well as receive colors from space, images, videos, music, or phone calls directly into his head via internet connection. Harbisson identifies himself both as a cyborg; he feels he is technology, and as a transspecies; he no longer feels 100% human. His artwork explores identity, human perception, the connection between sight and sound, and the use of artistic expression via new sensory inputs. In 2010 he co­-founded the Cyborg Foundation with Moon Ribas, an international organization that aims to help humans become cyborgs, defend cyborg rights and promote cyborg art. In 2017 he co-founded the Transpecies Society, an association that gives voice to people with non-human identities defends the freedom of self-design and offers the creation of new senses and new organs in the community. http://twitter.com/neilharbisson https://cyborgarts.com https://www.transpeciessociety.com/

To perceive colour for the first time, Neil Harbisson implanted an antenna into his skull. To experience the movement of earthquakes within her body, Moon Ribas implanted sensors into her feet. Damian meets the two cyborg artists and co-founders of the Cyborg Foundation to find out how technology has altered their perceptions of reality, blurred the lines between human and machine, and tested the boundaries of society.Influence is a production of WeTransfer, produced in association with Reasonable Volume.

En este Café Geek Hunters está con nosotros el primer cyborg legalmente reconocido en el mundo. De viva voz nos cuenta por qué se implantó "una antena" en la cabeza, qué tan difícil fue encontrar un cirujano que hiciera este procedimiento y cómo ésta le permite ver colores del espacio. Hoy, la  "antena" es un órgano de su cuerpo, ¿qué cambios legales habría que hacer al respecto? En este episodio hablamos de superhumanos e interespecies y de cuál es la diferencia entre ellos. Además, Neil nos cuenta sobre algunos amigos que también perciben cosas más allá de lo que el promedio de los humanos percibimos. ¿Cuál es el siguiente paso? ¿Qué nos espera como raza humana?

Un cyborg es una criatura compuesta de elementos orgánicos y dispositivos cibernéticos, generalmente con la intención de mejorar las capacidades de la parte orgánica mediante el uso de tecnología. Manfred E. Clynes y Nathan S. Kline acuñaron el término en 1960 para referirse a un ser humano mejorado que podría sobrevivir en entornos extraterrestres. El término cyborg está íntimamente relacionado con la biónica, que es la ciencia encargada de estudiar y desarrollar aparatos y procedimientos tecnológicos para sustituir o servir de ayuda a las funciones de los seres vivos.

What has long been explored in science-fiction as well as prophesied as the next step in the evolution of human beings by "Singularity" proponents like Ray Kurzweil is now not only predicted as an eventuality...it's already happening!!! In fact you could argue with things like pacemakers and prosthetics, we have been meeting the technical definition of "cyborg" for years which essentially just means the enhancement of human capabilities but the integration of mechanical elements built into our biology. But We are joined by someone who has taken things a step further - Neil Harbission is the President of the "Cyborg Foundation" which exists to help people become cyborgs...and one of the world's first officially recognized "cyborgs."

In this episode, we meet two people who consider themselves cyborgs. The cultural challenges of being born colorblind led Neil Harbisson on a mission to create a system that would allow him to defy his limitations. Astonishingly, he did it! When he met Manel De Aguas, who designed the two fins attached to his skull which allow him to hear changes in the weather, they decided to set up the Transpecies Society, an association that gives a voice to people with non-human identities. Both describe their additional senses in vivid detail and explain why they, and people like them, seek to alter and improve upon their human capabilities.

This episode is about Cyborg, Technology, Artificial Senses, Science, Biology Technology has become a fundamental part of our everyday life. Neil Harbisson, Co-Founder of the Cyborg Foundation, has moved one step further by actively becoming part of technology: He has an antenna implanted in his skull to overcome his color blindness and perceives the entire color spectrum from infrared to ultraviolet as vibrations in his head. In our conversation he tells us exactly how this works, what "Superpowers" other cyborgs already have and what will be possible in the future. He also explains the deeper purpose and benefits of these "Artificial Senses" and what positive effects they might have on humanity and our overall connection to our planet and other species.   Links Cyborg Foundation: Website: https://www.cyborgfoundation.com/ Facebook: https://www.face...>

Frank Swain can hear Wi-Fi. Diagnosed with early deafness aged 25, Frank decided to turn his misfortune to his advantage by modifying his hearing aids to create a new sense. He documented the start of his journey three years ago on Radio 4 in 'Hack My Hearing'. Since then, Frank has worked with sound artist Daniel Jones to detect and sonify Wi-Fi connections around him. He joins a community around the world who are extending their experience beyond human limitations. In 'Meet the Cyborgs' Frank sets out to meet other people who are hacking their bodies. Neil Harbisson and Moon Rebus run The Cyborg Foundation in Barcelona, which welcomes like-minded body hackers from around the world. Their goal is not just to use or wear technology, but to re-engineer their bodies. Frank meets the creators of Cyborg Nest, a company promising to make anyone a cyborg. They have recently launched their first product - The North Sense - a computer chip anchored to body piercings in the chest, which vibrates when it faces north. "I'm a 51 year old bald guy, with no tattoos or piercings" says co-founder Scott Cohen. "This was never a place I thought I'd end up in. Everyone's talking about machine learning, but what we're trying to do is make our brains smarter." Of course, the marriage of technology and biology is commonplace in medicine, from pacemakers to IUDs. But now 'citizen hackers' are modifying their medical equipment to add new functions. Dana Lewis from Seattle has created her own 'artificial pancreas' to help manage her Type 1 diabetes and released the code online. But should limits be placed on self-experimentation? And will cybernetic implants eventually become as ubiquitous as smart phones? Features music composed for The North Sense by Andy Dragazis. Presenter: Frank Swain. Producer: Michelle Martin. First broadcast on Tuesday 31 January, 2017.

Aged 32, science writer Frank Swain is losing his hearing. Audiologists are concerned there may be a rising tide of 'hidden hearing loss' among young people. As electronic prices have fallen, sound systems have become cheaper and more powerful. At the same time, live music events and personal music players are more popular than ever, resulting in an increase in noise-related hearing damage. In this programme, Frank asks what the future holds for people like him, part of a tech-savvy generation who want to hack their hearing aids to tune in to invisible data in the world around them. Could these designers and hackers create the next supersense? Producer: Michelle Martin First broadcast on Monday 6 January, 2014.

In 1960 Manfred Clynes first used the term “cyborg” in his article “Cyborgs and Space”. Today, people are willingly altering their bodies to make “cyborgs” a reality. In this episode, Host Bernardo Pinto will explore the definition of a cyborg, analyze modern cyborgs, and interview an engineer at the Georgia Insitute of Technology to see how he responds to the topic as well. We will take a look at modern cyborgs like Neil Harbisson who can hear color and Moon Ribas who can feel seismic activity. Then, Anchor Kyle Wengryn will take us through the history of cyborgs and compare them to modern technology. He will also discuss his findings when asking the general public about their views on cyborgs. Today, we will expand our current definition of a cyborg and see how our virtual connection to technology is changing the way the think. Is a physical prosthetic required to be a cyborg? How are Apple watches and mobile applications turning us into humanoids? Should we be scared?

Original broadcast date: March 7, 2014. In this hour, TED speakers question whether we can experience the world more deeply by not only extending our senses — but going beyond them. Guests include artist Neil Harbisson, engineer Todd Kuiken, speech scientist Rupal Patel, and sound expert Julian Treasure.

Er du lei av å holde mobiltelefonen i hånda? Hadde det ikke vært bedre om den bare var en del av kroppen? Eller mister vi noe menneskelig om teknologien kommer på innsiden av huden vår? I den fjerde episoden i serien om Robotene og oss skal vi se nærmere på transhumanisme, altså om vi mennesker skal begynne å låne deler av robotene for å bli bedre versjoner av oss selv.

Das Verschmelzen von Mensch und Maschine, der Übergang von Biologie zu Technik - für die einen absolute Horrorvorstellung, für die anderen ein logischer nächster Schritt in unserer Evolution. Und für jemand ganz anderen bereits Realität: Neil Harbisson ist der erste Cyborg, den es auf unserer Erde gibt - denn er hat ein zusätzliches Sinnesorgan, eine Antenne (mit WLAN). In der Folge erzähle ich, was Transhumanismus bedeutet, wie Stephen Hawkings uns davor gewarnt hat, warum Ray Kurzweil dies als natürlich bezeichnet und was es mit dem Cyborg auf sich hat.

A cura di Tommaso PerroneDomenica si è votato in Catalogna per il referendum sull’indipendenza dalla Spagna. Nel corso della giornata ci sono stati numeri scontri tra polizia e i cittadini che si stavano recando alle urne provocando centinaia di feriti. Secondo gli organizzatori del referendum, avrebbero votato 2 milioni di catalani e i favorevoli all’indipendenza sarebbero stati pari al 92 per cento. Leggi tutti gli aggiornamenti: http://life.gt/catalogna-indipendenza Chistiana Figueres, ex capo della convenzione Onu sul clima e attuale vice della convenzione dei sindaci per il clima e l’energia, ha sfidato la finanza con una proposta ambiziosa: “Investite 700 miliardi di dollari nelle energie rinnovabili”. Lo ha fatto durante la conferenza per gli investimenti responsabili dell’Onu lanciando la sfida di una finanza low carbon da raggiungere entro il 2020. Per capirne di piu: http://life.gt/christiana-figueres-rinnovabili L’artista Neil Harbisson è nato senza poter vedere i colori. Soffre di una rara condizione visiva che si chiama acromatopsia. Poi qualcosa è cambiato e dall’età di 21 anni vive con un apparecchio tecnologico attaccato al cervello in grado di trasformare i colori in frequenze, in suoni. Può addirittura ascoltare la musica di un dipinto, di un Picasso. Una condizione che gli ha consentito di ricevere lo status di cyborg anziché di uomo all’anagrafe britannica. Abbiamo intervistato Harbisson, originario dell’Irlanda del Nord ma cresciuto a Barcellona, in Spagna, in occasione del Singularity University summit che si è tenuto il 27 e 28 settembre a Milano. È stata l’occasione per approfondire anche la sua anima verde. Leggi l’intervista: http://life.gt/uomo-cyborg

Biohacking comes in many forms, from those wanting to hack their work productivity, those aiming to optimize long-term health, and those wanting to correct their bodily shortcomings and deficiencies. This week, we talk to one biohacker whose mission might sound like something straight out of science fiction...adding additional sensors to the human body. Welcome to the HVMN Enhancement podcast. Episode 40 features Neil Harbisson, the world's first cyborg. Growing up color-blind, Neil sought to experience color without altering his existing gray-scale vision. His solution? Implanting an antenna in his head that allows him to perceive visible and invisible colors such as infrareds and ultraviolets via sound waves. This initial modification to his body spurred his current passion for cybernetics.  He is a co-founder of the Cyborg Foundation, an international organization that aims to help humans become cyborgs, defend cyborg rights and promote cyborgism as a social and artistic movement. Geoffrey Woo and Neil dive into his experiences with his antenna (did you know Neil can detect active/false alarms in stores?), discuss the ethical and practical appliances of cybernetics, and why adding additional sensors found in other species (antenna = bug) has made Neil actually feel closer to nature than, say, a machine. 

Una start up londinese ha progettato un algoritmo che crea brani musicali. Lo si può utilizzare, è in rete. Si sceglie il genere e si scarica, a partire da 90 centesimi. Neil Harbisson, invece, con i suoni vede i colori. Ha una patologia che gli consente di vedere solo scale di grigi, ma ha progettato una antenna che coglie tutte le frequenze cromatiche e le trasforma in vibrazioni sonore. Ma questa è intelligenza artificiale? Attenzione alle immagini fascinose.

(This podcast was produced by CLOT Magazine editorial team and Stephen Mclaughlin) What happens if we alter the traditional methods of sensing by adding an extra sense? What changes if we extend our perception and abilities by enhancing our senses? In her A Cyborg Manifesto, written in the early eighties, Dora Haraway defined cyborg as ‘A cybernetic organism, a hybrid of machine and organism, a creature of social reality as well as a creature of fiction. Neil Harbisson, cyborg artist, co-founder of The Cyborg Foundation and Cyborg Nest, ‘became technology’ and therefore cyborg more than a decade ago when he implanted an antenna in his skull that allows him to hear colours. Born with achromatopsia, a rare condition of colour blindness that makes him see the world in a grey scale, the antenna, which Harbisson calls ‘eyeborg’ represents the perfect cybernetic union between human and technology. He even wears it while showering. For Harbisson, the son of a Catalan mother and an Irish father, his identity as a cyborg is official — the antenna is included in his British passport. Harbisson’s cyborg art is mainly focused on creating music and portraits through the new sense. In Piano Concerto No. 1, he painted a piano with different colour paint and then the antenna played the frequencies of the colours while he created portraits in Sound Portraits by listening to the colour of their faces. Another appealing artwork is The Human Colour Wheel, a colour wheel based on the light of the human skins. Apart from his artistic work Neil Harbisson co-founded together with cyborg choreographer Moon Ribas The Cyborg Foundation in 2010. Its aims are to help people to become a cyborg by giving them the tools and the information to achieve their goal. More recently, in 2016, Harbisson and Ribas launched Cyborg Nest. As Neil says, Cyborg Nest is a company that ‘[offers] senses for people. (...) so people can extend their senses by applying or incorporating new sensory organs in their body.’ How would the world appear to us when we sense it in a broad and different new ways? Exploring new ways of communicating beyond our senses and languages of sounds and signs will allow us to comprehend the world in broader dimensions. The world would not be perceived any longer in three dimensions.

Sveriges Radios digitala utvecklingsredaktör Maria Dietrichson besökte 24 november konferensen Lyssna i Lund - en heldag om ljud och ljudforskning. Hon mötte även den mänskliga cyborgen Neil Harbisson som föddes färgblind men nu kan höra färger som toner via en antenn i sitt huvud. Om detta pratar hon med Medieormens redaktör Cecilia Djurberg. Här hittar du cyborgkonstnären Neil Harbissons TED talk "I listen to color"

Episode 03: Neil Harbisson was born with Achromatopsia (ACHM) – he sees the world in grayscale. Yet he perceives more colors than normal sighted humans – and not just the colors that you and I perceive, but infrareds and ultra violets. Neil is the world’s first cyborg to interpret color as sound. The experimental music sequence features samples from “PLEASE DON'T MESS WITH MY FRANKENSTEIN” by Jared C. Balogh. (http://freemusicarchive.org/music/Balogh/Irrelevant_Future/PLEASE_DONT_MESS_WITH_MY_FRANKENSTEIN) Also featured is a sample from the track “ItrTtistc (Impossible To Reverse/Time That Is Still To Come)”, a composition out of the Infrasound Laboratory at the University of Hawaii.

Aleks Krotoski explores the digital world. In today's programme have we all become cyborgs without even knowing it? We've always extended our human bodies ever since we first picked up rocks or sticks as tools, it's part of human nature. So are the digital tools of today any different? Aleks asks just how far we've come and are willing to go to become one with our technology and become cyborg. Aleks hears from film maker Rob Spence better known as Eyeborg about the reaction he gets to the camera he has where his right eye used to be. It's a different type of eye artist and composer Neil Harbisson uses, born entirely colour blind Neil uses an electronic eye on an antenna attached to his skull to hear colours it's now such a part of how Neil perceives the world that he hears the colours in his dreams! Brandy Ellis is a very different type of cyborg; having suffered from depression for years she opted to have electronics implanted in her brain to control her symptoms. Her feelings are literally regulated by a machine. Ultimately Aleks finds out from anthropologist Amber Case how we're all every bit as cyborg as Rob, Neil or Brandy in how we coexist symbiotically with our digital devices.

Totally colourblind Neil Harbisson has a skull implant that creates artificial synesthesia (sonochromaticism) and lets him hear colours. A human cyborg, and a fascinating man!
