An Australian performance artist has had an ear implanted on his arm. Stelios Arcadious had ear cells infused into his arm in 2006, and there is now a very pronounced ear on his left forearm. He is planning to have a microphone and a Bluetooth transmitter implanted there, so that others can hear what his arm hears.

So, can his arm actually hear shit, or is it purely for looks?

It's purely cosmetic. Hence the mic and bluetooth. I think they use the term "hear" loosely here. It's more like, what sounds are around the ear, or what it would hear if it was functional.
