Did you know that colors can be seen as well as heard? Well, now you do, thanks to 31-year-old Neil Harbisson, a color blind artist who spent years looking for a way of experiencing the colors of the world around him. 你知道吗？颜色不仅可以被看见，还能被“听见”！31岁的尼尔·哈维森是一位色盲艺术家，他花费多年时间终于找到了一种感受周围世界色彩的方法，足以让你大开眼界。 For the past 10 years, Neil has been wearing an external electronic eye that picks up the frequencies of the colors before him and converts them into sound vibrations that he can hear. Initially he wore the device outside his head. But later, the London-based artist convinced surgeons to implant the chip int his skull to be able to perceive more intricate colors. 在过去的10年中，尼尔一直戴着一个外置电子眼，它可以把颜色的频率转化成声波，然后尼尔就可以“听见”声音了。最初的时候，他在大脑外部佩戴这一装置，但后来这位伦敦艺术家说服外科医生把芯片植入自己的头盖骨里面，以便获取更细微的颜色。 The idea for the device came about when Neil heard a cybernetics talk by computer scientist Adam Montandon at Dartington College of Arts in 2003. The pair then collaborated to create the device and Neil ended up memorizing various frequencies so he could recognize colors. So he still couldn’t see the colors, he could now hear and identify them. |
