Between Sound & Silence:

How Technology is Changing Deafness

Between Sound & Silence: How Technology is Changing Deafness

Video        Op-Docs        NYT        10 August 2018

For more than a generation now,

cochlear implants have, for some,

been transforming the experience of deafness.

In this week’s Op-Doc, “Between Sound and Silence,”

director Irene Taylor Brodsky delves into conversation

with a cohort of people living that transformation.

Herself the child of deaf parents

and the mother of a deaf son,

Brodsky delves into a complex realm

where deafness and hearing,

rather than absolute states,

are territories of human experience

to be bridged and explored.
