‘Cyborg' Artists Combine Tech With the Human Body
Moon Ribas and Neil Harbisson of New York City call themselves cyborgs because they are living with technology installed in their bodies. Harbisson, born with a rare form of colorblindness, has an antenna implant in his head that allows him to hear colors, while Ribas has an arm implant that allows her to perceive earthquakes in real time anywhere on the planet. Together, the two artists created The Cyborg Foundation with the mission of melding technology with the human body.
