Hearing Colors (2015)

Movie 5 min

This short film is about Neil Harbisson, a completely colorblind cyborg that lives in New York City. Neil invented an antenna that converts color into sound and had it surgically implanted into the back of his head. There have been several articles and coverage of Neil and his device over the years, so I wanted to take a different approach to this story and tell a more personal narrative.
