For anyone who is interested, my PhD advisor Dr. Eagleman, and I are hosting a public Google "On Air" Q+A Hangout. We'll be discussing + taking questions about our latest work in sensory substitution/augmentation using a device (which we call the VEST) that I've developed as part of my thesis work.

The hangout page is here (Thurs 9/25, 5pm CT / 11pm BT):

We're also experimenting with crowdfunding science using the project. You can check out our Kickstarter here:
