oscillik Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 Hang on...the article implies that this guy has always only been able to see in greyscale... so it's completely irrelevant that he uses this device because he doesn't know what colours look like in the first place.

murve33 Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 So someone pre-programmed a bunch of colors to beam sounds into his head? Shit, the quotes lead me to believe he could do that shit in his head. I'm a lot less impressed, cool hardware though.

Yea, so the guy who made the hardware/software chose what notes the dude is to hear based on what color the dude "perceives". Man, changing every pitch to a different color would really fuck that guy up.
