Artist Neil Harbisson was born colour blind, but an antenna drilled into his skull enables him to hear colours and today he is the world’s first officially recognised cyborg. Meet a man who may be the prototype of the human of the future. There are no others like Neil Harbisson out there – at least not yet. As the world’s first officially recognised cyborg, he is a unique creature and on a dedicated mission for the right to design himself. Born colour-blind, artist Harbisson has an antenna implanted in his skull that enables him to hear colour and, along with his collaborators, he tours the world talking about being a cyborg – in fact, parts of Carey Born’s portrait road movie were filmed during CPH:DOX in 2014, where Harbisson was the festival’s special guest. Unfortunately, not everyone shares Harbisson’s tech-optimism, and he has faced death threats from conservative zealots who see the symbiosis between man and machine as blasphemous. A film from the technological forefront about a cyborg who may be the prototype of the human of the future. 源自：https://cphdox.dk/film/cyborg-a-documentary/
