From McIRO Productions

McIRO Productions implemented a short movie project of cybernetics×art in New Delhi, India, the most youngest and vigorous country at the moment. Our story based on a real cyborg, Neil Harbisson who has an antenna implanted in his skull which turns colors into audible frequencies. Here is Mr. Harbisson's talk at TED 2012. https://www.ted.com/talks/neil_harbisson_i_listen_to_color
We aim at showing the possibilities of cybernetics utility for disabilities, suggesting the urgent need of improving our social awareness as the technology continues to evolve rapidly.
Technologies these days are not only as supplement, but transcend our accustomed perception - sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch, etc, as seen in the example of Mr. Harbisson.
In the film, we highlight the marriage of human emotions and technology, citing the universal theme "love” and “emotional attachment” to deliver the extraordinary story of being a “cyborg” as a more relatable human experience.

世界でいま最も勢いのある国インド、ニューデリーにて、サイバネティクス×アートのショートムービープロジェクトをMcIRO Productionsが実現させました。色をキャッチして音の周波数に変換し、音階で聴くことができる装置を頭蓋骨に取り付けた、世界初のサイボーグ人間、ニール・ハービソンさんの経験に基づいたフィクションストーリー。ニールさんのTEDでのスピーチはこちら。https://www.ted.com/talks/neil_harbisson_i_listen_to_color?language=ja
テクノロジーの急速な進化に対応するための社会的な環境づくりや、福祉面でのサイバネティクスの活用の可能性を提示。昨今のテクノロジーは、ヒトの足りない部分を補うためだけのものではなく、視覚、聴覚、嗅覚、味覚、触覚など元々の知覚を超えたセンスを私たちに与えます。McIRO Productionsは、一風変わった”サイボーグ”の物語をより身近にするため、誰しもに普遍的なテーマである”恋愛”と”エモーショナルアタッチメント”を取り上げながら、人間的な感情とテクノロジーの関わりについて考えてみました。
