Rosemary Johnson Was A Promising Violinist And Member Of The Welsh National Opera Orchestra When She

Rosemary Johnson was a promising violinist and member of the Welsh National Opera Orchestra when she was involved in a devastating car crash 27 years ago. The accident left her in a coma for seven months, and the resulting brain damage has robbed her of most of her ability to talk and move.

But thanks to new software that reads people’s brain waves, Johnson has been able to compose music for the first time since 1988, and has had the chance to have it played to her in real time by a professional string quartet.

“It was really very moving,” Eduardo Miranda from the Interdisciplinary Centre for Computer Music Research at Plymouth University in the UK, told The Telegraph.

We pulled together the week’s top tech stories, just for you:

1. Formula E is planning the first racing series for driverless cars You read that right: Before every Formula E race, two autonomous vehicles will go head-to-headlights, in a race straight out of every Sci-Fi fan’s wildest dreams. via: @engadget

2. How Technology Will Transform Retirement Someday in the near future, being selfish and obsessed with technology might be qualities that senior citizens praise today’s Millennials for. All around the world, young people are hard at work creating technology that will take care of them when they’re older. via: The Wall Street Journal

After all, the real reason we don’t have flying cars is because people are bad drivers. And adding a z axis would be like trying to navigate rush-hour traffic in midair. via: ZDNet

4. Wayfindr Is on a Quest to Optimize Cities for the Visually Impaired After a successful experiment at London’s Pimlico Station and a recently received grant of $1 million from Google.org, this company wants to change the way visually impaired commuters navigate the London Underground. via: @wired
