TED talk



I recently watched a TED talk about the invention literally saved and unlocked a mobility impaired artist.
The artist was TEMPT who was one of the foremost graphitti artists in the 80s.
One day, he got a disease called ALS which completely paralyzed him from toe to head.
He now has only use of his eyes to communicate with people.

Mick Ebbling who has taken the lead and invented a device which makes a person to draw with his eyes!

It has made TEMPT to draw again and be an artist again.
I was so touched from what Mick and his team have done which will absolutely give more hope and passion to art to people who suffer from disease or even got impaired like TEMPT.
