    I love how a project like this can potentially bring happiness to other people in Tony Quan's situation. Drawing is pure expression, by proxy i may add. However, this will help him express what is on his mind better than in his current condition. My prayers go out to Tony for a recovery no matter how slim the chances. #eyewritergraffiti

    Zach Lieberman spoke at a Swiss-Miss Creative Morning. It was mind blowing. I'm excited to start experimenting with OpenFrameworks.

    Even paralyzed that dude has more art skills than I do. Very cool to see technology used to give someone a way to continue expressing themselves in ways previously unimaginable. #eyewritergraffiti

    This makes me CRY!!!

    I am absolutely fascinated at the things people do for friends. Which is sad at the same time because it shows how most people aren't ready to tackle things like this.

    Keep it up!!!

    At first I though this post was for the Graffiti Research Lab #eyewritergraffiti

    @Rosa Golijan: I didn't notice until I watch it again.

    I knew it was them though because I recognized one of the laptops or projectors with stickers lol

    I'm still amazed at how it impacted me... I woke up, showered and saw this video and started crying... #eyewritergraffiti

    Great use of technology, well done to those involved. On a purely selfish note, any idea what the music is on the video? It's stuck in my head!

    It's inspiring when people can focus and overcome some thing or some event that by any measure would be excusable to give up all hope and aspirations in the face of it.

    I'm hoping this is only the first milestone for this guy getting back to what he loves. I'm reminded of The Diving Bell and The Butterfly or the return of Chuck Close after his paralysis, and I hope this guy can take it that far in his own life.

    Edit: I also wanted to add that in many stories like this, here and in the two I mentioned, there is another half to it, often overlooked at first: the incredible people that help the stricken person realize they can rise above. The belief and vision those guys had to even bring the machine into Quan's room need to be commended as well.
