I can write a summary of the video "I listen to color"
This video is about a man called Neil Harbisson who has a rare visual condition called achromatopsy that is a total color blindness. He sees all in gray, however he can hear colors.
He has an "electronic eye" which is a device that permit him to differenciate colors by listening the frequencies they emit.
He has been hearing colors for 8 years to memorize all of them. Niel said he started to feel like a cyborg when he dreamed with colors realizing that the divice and his brain were united. He also appears with the electronic eye in his passport because it is a part of him.
He prefers to dress in a way that sound good and not in a looks good way. He also prefers to eat his "favorite songs".
He started to paint what he heard like songs and speaches.
At the end of the video Niel encourage us to extend our senses and to being cyborgs like him.
I can write my personal reaction to the video "I listen to color"
I believe he made a difference. There are a lot of people who suffers but don´t do anything, he did it. It might be difficult to memorize all the frequencies and colors but he teach us to fight of what we want and what we believe. For instance, I think he had to do a lot of things to appear with the device in the british passport. And also we can having a good time by eating our favorite songs, just like he said. It is a great story and he is a great man. I don't like the idea of being a cyborg, but i love the idea of extend our senses.
