Back in November 2015 I wrote an article called ‘The Future of Biohacking: Implanted LED Lights‘ which featured Grindhouse Wetware’s Northstar LED implant.
Grindhouse evolved from a group of highly driven individuals on the biohack.me forums, to a dedicated team working towards a common goal – augmenting humanity using safe, affordable, open source technology.
