Imagine not being able to see in colour.
It's something that most people take for granted. I've known only just a
few who have partial colour blindness but never heard of people having
complete colour blindness until I heard a talk given by Neil Harbisson.
Harbisson suffers from Cone Monochromacy (A strang of colour blindness)
and worked with a team of computer engineers to develop a technology to
hear colour. His guides you into hearing just what his experiences are
of meeting people; looking at their face and hearing their colour tone
or looking in art galleries and being in awe of picasso's paintings.
