Becoming Eyeborg: Rob Spence's Journey to Create a Digital Prosthetic Eye (2008-2014)

This historic collection draws on Canadian filmmaker Rob Spence's creative work, broadcast news, mainstream print journalism and fictional cross-references all of which describe the creation of his camera eye. Some of these artifacts allude to film and video characters that are used to characterize aspects of this story. In these cases we have entered clips to make these connections. Spanning 2008 to 2014, this collection offers the digital portrait of a modern inventor seeking to create a digital prosthetic eye.
