Sat, Jul 30, 2011 Permanent linkI just saw tonight another stunning example of infosyn, by Mobius 8 and his instrument the "Hydra". He uses movement across lasers to manipulate samples and run loops of both audio, video and lights.
*in conversation with him, he mentioned he has a type of synesthesia where movement is translated into sounds. he was inspired to make the device, and has spent 15 years working with different generations of tech.
Sat, Feb 23, 2013 Permanent linkNiel Harbisson is doing very innovative work around infosynaesthesia and #infosyn tech.
Harbisson has been claimed to be the first recognized cyborg in the world, as his passport photo now includes his device. In 2010, Neil Harbisson and Moon Ribas created the Cyborg Foundation, an international organization to help humans become cyborgs. The foundation has also experimented with other sensory devices, including an “earborg,” which translates sound into color, and a “speedborg,” which allows people to detect movement through electronic earrings that vibrate.
"the holographic state" is clearly a logical next step. I've been slightly obsessed with them for the past month. idea.
