My TED talk: Can we create new senses for humans? Featured

Can we create new senses for humans? Can we create new senses for humans? Bret Hartman

At TED I had the opportunity to address an issue close to my heart: can we marry our technology to our biology to expand what it means to be a human?  If you're interested in more on this topic, see my new company NeoSensory, or read a short essay I wrote called "The Umwelt".
