Paralyzed graffiti artist paints with his eyes

This is incredible....wow, kudos!

There is a lot of technology being applied to people with ALS. I saw a presentation a few years ago from a researcher who developed a system which could allow a completely paralyzed person (even without eye movement control required for the technology referenced in this article) to write, by detecting changes in brainwaves when certain letters were highlighted. It was slow, but it allowed communication.

Brain-computer interface, baby!

This proves that there is good in the world and that some people actually still care. Cudos! Your Mothers and Fathers would be proud of you!

This is so amazing! I feel so great for TEMPT that he can do what he loves again.

It is myself who needs eyesight, or better at that at least. I thought the headline read 'paralyzed giraffe artist paints with his eyes'. Alas, I am very happy to have been wrong and that this man can at least do something he loves. Kudos to the brilliant people who came up with the tech to help these unfortunate folks.

THIS ONE OF THOSE MOMENTS WHEN i AM OVERWHELVED BY THE REALITY OF ANOTHER HUMAN BEING FACING MONUMENTAL BARRIERS TO LIVING.

So cool!

Many good artists are stuck in mundane jobs. Many politicians enjoy the sunshine.

what a great concept. my hats off to the men and women who have dedicated there time to create this.
i understand people being upset with kids tagging any building or available wall with useless words or there names. Those vandals are not true "artists"
to avoid needless vandalism i've seen companies contract out artists to mural sides of there buildings and the results have been beautiful.
i can't wait to view this documentary

Some people go to court demanding euthanasia and some do the best they can with each minute left to live. I admire him and will send him some good thoughts. Thank you for having the guts to live and find joy.

What will they think of next?

I absolutely agree with Voice of Reason. Courage isn't the absence of fear, it's taking action in the face of it. This man is COURAGEOUS!
And Lolo Mondo, what have you done to better your environment lately???

he has more guts in one of his little eyelashes than almost anyone i have ever met stay alive guy I wish I knew you! let one person live 1 hour in your body I know I want you to stay here as long as I .kyleecj

While I feel genuine sadness for this chap's physical illness, Graffitti is NOT an art - it is vandalism, costing taxpayers millions every year.

his painting must be an eye-sore...

Ba-Dum- CHshhh!!

All kidding aside that is awesome what an inspirational story!

The tech-no-logic waste of resources. The impetus for this machinery was that soldiers could be able to fire weapons by using their eye movements only. After spending $billiOns of dollars and years of field testing it was found that the ENEMY, more often than not, poked out the captives eyes with a sharp stick..............................on the other hand, a great accomplishment for this chap...............................................

Crappy artist. there are much better

Great! Now there's definitely no way to stop these graffiti artists from messing up our world!

graffiti artist!? the dog sh...t looks better!!!!

Unfortunately, that technology is what people who aren't paralyzed want, so they can be lazy F's just like they already are. Can't even lift your arm to change the channel anymore! Can't even lift a finger. If you're more interested in the technology than your own F'ng spine,... you are.... ????... more than retarded! Thanks for reping humans, I'd rather be an insect eating SH%! If I were paralyzed, I think I'd .... suffer for ever and until the day I die.
HAlf you idiots would love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Come On, not having to lift a finger..... you know you'd love it. You're so silver spooned you'd pay to break your back.
