Cyborg: A Documentary

A fascinating portrait of artist and musician Neil Harbisson, recognised as the world’s first official cyborg.

In 2004, Harbisson had an antenna implanted into his skull – a device that translates colours into sound frequencies, allowing him to literally hear colour. He later co-founded the Cyborg Foundation, dedicated to promoting the technological extension of human senses. Director Carey Born follows Harbisson’s journey from scientific curiosity to a profound philosophical challenge: how far can technology redefine human identity? This documentary offers not only an intimate personal story, but also a wider reflection on the shifting boundaries between human and machine.
