Infrared travels long distances, it's a mysterious color as it appears and disappears suddenly, it can be perceived from far away, it sounds deep and it's the only colour I can hear in total darkness.

The antenna allows me to hear colours, from infrareds to ultraviolets, directly into my skull. So I can sense the colours around me without using my eyes and without using my ears. The antenna also allows me to have bone conducted communication with other devices such as mobile phones: I could be in an office, yet receive the colours of a sunset directly into my head.

I have the antenna in my passport photo, so I show them the passport and tell them that the antenna is not an electronic device but a part of my body.

Yes, the image of the sunset is created by my brain not by the antenna. It's like dreaming it.

No. 20th century cyborgs are different from 21st century cyborgs. I think the union between humans and technology that we'll witness during the next few decades will be much more positive and natural than what the 20th century thought.
