Whoa artist and professor Wafaa Bilal will have a camera surgically implanted in the back of his head.

Progressive, forward thinking, technology apparently now allows people to be “The 3rd I” into someone else’s world. “The 3rd I” is the name of the work commissioned by the government of Qatar.

Viewers will get to see backwards, or into Wafaa’s world, as the camera takes pictures in one minute intervals. Some pictures will be broadcast in real time.

 

Technology is funny. I adore it, but stories like remid me of The Borg in Star Trek.
