The Cyborg Artist Who Hears Color

[@freethink]

What cyborg implant would you want?

[@colindevoe3460]

Bionic Arm!

[@cooliipie]

Bionic cock with crazy sensation

[@enadopato]

@@cooliipie epic trollaladas!!

[@freethink]

Pacemakers are the OG cyborg implant. It’s amazing how normal they have become!

[@lambdacalculus3505]

He looks like a dude who hears color

[@freethink]

...can’t argue with that?

[@divind9067]

Is he legally allowed to do the "I am not a robot" capchas?

[@deehines3797]

Funny meme

[@divind9067]

Fetus In da womb da funny

[@migsy1]

Only half of one

[@andrew-qw5ez]

forget about the antenna that haircut isn't working

[@theillustrator7437]

slatt slatt lmao the bowl cut

[@lincolnlopez7563]

I know this is the premise of your joke.... but you were just made aware of a cyborg who can Hear your Face and your takeaway is his hair style?

[@theillustrator7437]

Lincoln Lopez nigga who cares

[@maxmustermann5590]

​@@lincolnlopez7563yeah we're in the unfortunate Situation that we can see his face. Don't even need any upgrades

[@matthiaswinterton13]

Wouldn’t he just constantly be hearing sound like even when his eyes are closed?

[@freethink]

Matthias Winterton interesting question! He actually does hear and feel color all the time, he simply got used to it.

[@freethink]

According to him it took about 5 months for his brain to normalize it alongside his other senses.

[@shaylnnicholl9376]

Joseph Fruge he wouldn’t hear, theres not light reflecting on those objects

[@thastayapongsak4422]

@DARPA no light = no sound.

[@salemsspruce7670]

Youve just been VEctored!

This made me think of purposefully giving yourself synthasiza

[@edojap]

synesthesia

[@iluan_]

I work with optical sensors and I'm wondering if has ever upgraded his antenna. I mean, if he still has his original sensor then he is way outdated. Using newer ones he could have better sensitivity to hue and shades. But then I wonder if changing his sensors would mess up his perception.

[@Gab3S0lan0]

I may be wrong. But it looks like the end might be detachable to make hardware updates easier and less intrusive.

[@randomjohn6831]

He upgraded to sense infrared and uv

[@aaronleonard6225]

He did a Ted talk and discussed that .

[@Ascyt]

He has upraded it, I imagine each upgrade takes time to adapt to, but probably not a big deal

[@jjhack3r]

Why not just put in headphones for this?? Way to risky and fragile to be practical...

[@PSKResearch]

Every time he would bump something above or ahead of his head, it would crack it out of his skull, risking brain damage. Even if it was real, it's a nonsense gimmick for attention, or maybe to sell his work, but is totally unnecessary. A simple small earpiece can do the same thing... no need to bolt it into his skull. A hand-held device or phone app can also tell you the color of something. The dizzy flake just loves the attention by having something sticking out of his head. This is a flexible USB LED light. He attached it to a curved base that covers a bald spot on his head, glued in place with fake eyelash glue, or other body decoration glue. Think about it... shouldn't it have been mounted up front instead of in back? He's just covering his bald spot.

[@MetroidPurples]

Actually true. Someone hits that thing and his brain is goo

[@Streloski]

Research neurology before commenting next time. You had some good points, but the last part just killed it for you 😂

[@PSKResearch]

@@Streloski How so? The part of the brain that processes vision isn't even back there, but his bald spot where it's easy to glue goofy objects to his head is there. This is a con-job. Hearing colors can be accomplished with a simple earpiece -- no need to install it on your head. This is faked for attention. Is that hair even real or a wig?

[@The_Cyber_System]

I've seen Neil referenced before in other programs and videos, but this is the first getting to hear him talk about his experience, his views, and what he does. This was really, really cool and inspiring. I thing Neil has some great lessons for all of us and there's a lot we can take away from that. - Jamie

[@Dawdash]

This guy looks like the villain from Despicable Me 2

[@Dog_gone_it]

Sounds like a constant headache

[@rockwelaj]

I heard and tasted color...but I was high on edibles😐ok, 5 minutes in and I am tripping...especially after the voices. This was similar to how I heard my daughter's voice!

[@freethink]

Journey 2Asia haha, that’s one shortcut!

[@alexbourgon]

When it comes to electronic drugs, please, just say no.

[@agnel47]

"I agree", while using my phone for 10 hours a day

[@marieh1755]

So what happens if he needs an mri ?

[@queenelizabeth9322]

It was all fine until he said he identified as a cyborg

[@shad0wfrost]

This

[@VKSgtSLaughter]

Freekin Awesome! But is he turning into a Dalek?!

[@queensaharaice7376]

👀👀👀

[@arlynnecumberbatch1056]

man when he mentioned that ppl can make night vision antennas or eyes i feel like we are about to see it in this decade or two

[@SAMZIRRA]

I think the bowl cut is the weirdest thing about this guy.

[@XtractGG]

Looks like vector with an intenna

[@IIlIIlIIlII]

The entire antenna thing is fake and I can't believe how many people fall for it.

[@rr.studios]

Ok, how do you know this?

[@alexmesser2295]

My grandfather has achromatopsia. Now they have those glasses.

[@genesilv3484]

Please someone know what music starts at 0:21

[@trayvonlebowski511]

This is superb. Brings to mind though the rift in the deaf community .....in so as some people who are hearing impaired are dead set againstinner ear implants because it will dissolve the Sign Language community. While the flip side is dead people getting it and loving it. I wonder if the same sort of rift may develop in this gentleman's community. Interesting to think about. But this is still a beautiful video. He is so genuine and well spoken. I would love to watch a sit down convo with him and Cecelia from Students wit Psychosis. That would be groundbreaking.

[@Nicurru]

I dont want to be a cyborg, with chips and electronics inside. He can be that, if he wants to. My body works fine without all that.

[@SeeThomasHowl]

Title reads like a video title for The Onion

[@Uwuzumaki13]

It would be cool if he can run the antenna from the head to the arm and ending at the finger so he can see by pointing at things.

[@blue-pj2bp]

This is giving me Zima Blue vibes

[@andgalactus1]

I didn't know biohackers was a thing and now I can't stop laughing.

[@AndroidDARKx]

A fundamental misunderstanding of what "color" is to think that you can hear it.

[@adamwyett3157]

Please say this antenna is easily attached and detached via a magnet mechanism or something similar. As he already stated, some people think it's a camera and are quite hostile to it. I couldn't help wondering what happens if they try to physically pull it from his head, if it is attached to his skull. And does it have an off switch? Some other comment mentionned trying to sleep while hearing sounds with eyes closed, but I could imagine getting a headache, like when you listen through earphones for an hour or so.

[@eunac3037]

His bowl cut fits.

[@nikonijn]

i know him because he was mentioned in the visual novel 'butterfly soup' and i researched him after haha

[@bigchungus3419]

Well after playing cyberpunk, I will wait for all the patches before I turn myself into a cyborg.

[@slushy3689]

He looks like the Reddit Snoo

[@freethink]

In the future, we will all look like the Reddit Snoo

[@Ridiculizer]

Looking like an angler fish to hear vibrations all day. That's a hard pass for me.

[@zebruh2794]

This is amazing and mind blowing!

[@ntroxell83]

People who have heart devices pace makers and stuff they are cyborgs

[@natanoj16]

Not really. The difference is in enhancements. The pacemakers allow you to function normally. This gives him extra human abilities by extending his senses into ultraviolet and infra-red on top of the normal sense

[@lopiecart]

This is more art than science.

[@leagarner3675]

And more social experiment than life enhancing technology.

[@roefane2258]

I’ll have to think more about this, but I can say I’m challenged, and to me that’s good.

[@MrCScottie]

Ok

[@seigedrakonera5689]

Seeing colors. Dude, you could have just taken LSD.

[@racergreen5104]

So, to remember colours, he has to have a perfect pitch?

[@BeardofBeesPool]

Aren't there glasses for achromatopsia? They don't work on this guy?

[@the3dshow903]

I hear colors without an antenna black is low e white is high e the colors in the rainbow are the other notes.they have feel as well.taste to

[@Shrimp8008]

This is incredible! I really wish this becomes more popular. Imagine how diverse the world would be. Like the cyberpunk characters

[@freethink]

We'd love to see it 😍

[@angryvaultguy]

When you take Cyberpunk 2077 cosplay to seriously Still very cool

[@CtrlWQ]

Lasers, material science, and spectrums!

[@koolkiddrxp8793]

Bro he can make voices if he puts the colors In The right order

[@Pilsners]

neat tech but it kinda sounds like voluntary tinnitus just a bit worse because it is not one constant note that you can get used to but instead different notes all the time still amazing and i guess he could turn it off if it ever became a problem

[@run4funs24]

His mom gave him a bowl cut for the tv

[@daniell5740]

The hair cut fits him lmao

[@ok-os6ee]

but how does he shower

[@Chief-Solarize]

I like your bowl haircut dude!

[@Sarahmint]

You shouldn't do this as a social experiment. Do this for yourself

[@pablogalbraith]

Is it insensitive to say that I want one

[@jahmaijones3353]

Very amazing! He should sell his artwork and do that as a living instead of menial work however how does he wash his hair though ?

[@arlynnecumberbatch1056]

i would be willing to pay thousands for one of his vinyls than i care about nft "art"

[@mariemvaldez]

Neil...i want to met You!!!

[@chudiarys]

now i'm really curious about how my face sounds 😭

[@noninvasive_rectal_probe8990]

This dude should be afraid of lightnings

[@snottyboy9983]

Do you think he showers?

[@aryaprincess2479]

And he had to have this "Dumb and Dumber" haircut of course!

[@JonLaWit]

I wonder how his antenna and ears work with artists who use both color and sounds? I make psychedelic videos with my music that use a lot of color with the sounds.

[@MCPanda6969]

He could afford to get an elective surgery as a waiter? I call bullshit

[@spanndwichh]

Is it me or Stranger Things ost is playing in the backgound at the beginning?

[@aaronleonard6225]

My question is how was he able to afford it He said hes waited tables an delivered papers .

[@noninvasive_rectal_probe8990]

Uhm, two questions :who has done the surgery and who made the apparatus? 😐 and want about brain damage

[@palomagonzalez8665]

No one knows who has done the surgery because if not the person who made his surgery will loose his medical license, i dont know what to answer to the second question

[@pontiuspilates]

the guy was a waiter, I doubt it's even real

[@stlapierre]

Moe Howard stylized hair-do ?

[@johnperry6201]

Needs to be a DJ now!

[@evanfmc]

no shot this is real, i want to see the x rays? it would have to be an inplant that the antenna attaches to. why is none of this talked about? the logistics of it is by far the most interesting part

[@theamazingreptar]

Working as a waiter? How did he afford the operations?

[@colindevoe3460]

This. Is. Epic

[@freethink]

We also agree!

[@alexbourgon]

How do we know that’s him and not an “avatar” of a controller? And how do we know this is even legitimate?

[@ChrisGWGreen]

I like the concept of hearing sound and the way it could impact others… I just find the “social experiment” and wanting to be the worlds “first cyborg” a bit pretentious

[@dumbfoundedmunky364]

Oh yeah well I can see colour beat that vector lookin ass

[@BUSTEDCORERECORDS]

Die Menschheit geht zu Grunde :(

[@hout00gje]

So why not wear enchroma-glasses?

[@shushjpr2525]

Wait ... If u can transfer images in his brain then we can help blind people see! With an advanced live video Bluetooth cast kinda system we can help blind people get an idea of what the world is like!!

[@Em-mp4hf]

I would just get the glasses that let you see color instead of an antenna-

[@natanoj16]

Those wouldn't work for him Those glasses doesn't make you see colours. They allow you to separate colours from eachother so that they look a bit more different from each other.

[@natanoj16]

And since he can't see colours at all, they wouldn't work for him

[@STARDOG64]

I can too.... I just need some lsd then I become normal again 😅 Synesthesia is pretty darn cool.

[@miraadi97]

[@dinydianenichols9192]

The idea of being a cyborg doesn't scare me anywhere near as much as the idea of universal AI. Much better idea. BE THE CHANGE. Don't manufacture the change!!!!! I wish I could experience the brain implant that Elon Musk is experimenting with. I am 81 years old with all my faculties and in great health. I'd love the chance to be one of the ones used for the experiment. Not afraid of death. Only afraid of dying without helping to improve the future of mankind.

HOW DARE YOU!!!!!!!

[@tothedregsofficial887]

I just eat shrooms or smoke salvia/dmt to get the same feelings more or less

[@omnipresencetv8929]

when the technology to do surgery is more automated and affordable like 3D printers can be maybe less licencing BS around medical care and more self options but with risk being your own and costs being what ever the value would be to the patient. free market Ripperdoc future
