Neil Harbisson

Benchmark score:
9.0

Neil Harbisson (born 27 July 1982) is a Catalan-raised, British-born cyborg artist and transpecies activist based in New York City. He is best known for having an antenna implanted into his skull that allows him to perceive visible and invisible colors such as infrareds and ultraviolets via sound waves. Harbisson, who was born color blind, identifies as a cyborg, integrating technology into his body as a new sensory organ to extend his perception of reality. Did you know? The antenna, known as the «Eyeborg,» translates colors into vibrations in Harbisson’s skull, which he then experiences as different musical notes. This extraordinary capability has not only enabled him to perceive colors for the first time but has also influenced his artistic work, leading him to explore the relationship between color and sound in innovative ways. Harbisson’s work raises profound questions about the integration of technology with the human body, the extension of human senses, and the nature of human perception itself. This is a crazy colorful style, we are not sure this is how Neil Harbisson sees colors, but this is how Midjourney thinks he does! The Midlibrary score is 9/9, embrace the cyborg world!
