The Filmmaker who replaced his eyeball with a camera to conduct documentaries

Meet filmmaker who replaced his eyeball with a camera to conduct documentaries..The 43-year-old (Spence)can switch the camera on and off at the tap of a button..Spence - who now calls himself Eyeborg - said the eye-cam allows him to conduct interviews without the intrusion or distraction of bulky cameras or film crews. The eye-cam resembles a regular prosthetic eye but it is embedded with a camera.
Spence cannot see out of the lense but a what the 'eye' can see is visible from a handheld monitor.

But due to the technology within the camera, it can only be used for three minutes at a time without overheating.
Spence said:

"Literally everybody [said] it as a joke - ‘Oh, you should get an eye camera'.

"The two reactions are, ‘Wow, that’s so cool’ — and, after a few moments’ reflection, ‘But that’s so creepy'.

“I’ve actually started wondering, do we want to have constant video of our lives? It’s just another data set. And I don’t know the answer, but I think no, we don’t want that. But it’s coming anyway."
The decision came also because his eye was not working..

But at the end of the year, i was constantly telling myself that i needed to step in 2018 with a changed mind, changed attitude towards everything that has been battling in my mind, changed view of how i see life, changed mind on how i see myself and life generally. I just wanted to take control of my mind, and every situation that i can possibly control and the hardest i leave them to God. Now a new year, does not necessary make everything new, nor does the movement of the clock produce the newness of life , it is the movement in your mind that gives newness to life. Our biggest enemy we have in our lives is 'ourselves', in what we think, in what we have in our minds, and unless we take ...

So Far Gone

The week is coming to an end, and four days are so far gone. Friday is one of the most loved days by many. One of the activities that we should all include in our to do list is making sure we read something, an article, a book (probably a page or a chapter) and learn something new. I have been reading the book " The Confident Woman'' by J.Meyer and I would recommend this book to any woman out there, who is learning to love herself, learning to be confident and trying to find her place in this planet called earth. It's worth it!
