Intel wants a chip implant in your brain

Um, no thanks?

"Intel believes its customers would be willing to have a chip implanted in their brains so they could operate computers without the need for a keyboard or mouse using thoughts alone."
HA! They're dreamin'!



Computer chip maker Intel wants to implant a brain-sensing chip directly into the brains of its customers to allow them to operate computers and other devices without moving a muscle.

Intel believes its customers would be willing to have a chip implanted in their brains so they could operate computers without the need for a keyboard or mouse using thoughts alone. The implant could also be used to operate devices such as cell phones, TVs and DVDs.

The chip is being developed at Intel's laboratory in Pittsburgh, USA. It would sense brain activity using technology based on FMRI (Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging). The brain sensing chips are not yet available, but Intel research scientist Dean Pomerleau thinks they are close.

Terence Mckenna - Reclaim Your Mind

More Terence!
A short clip where McKenna talks about the ins and outs of creating culture rather than consuming it.
(the music is a bit distracting, but what can ya do)

First post: Terence Mckenna - Culture is your operating system

Our societal values and culture customs define our beliefs. And if everything we do and think is filtered through our beliefs, then our belief systems are one of the most significant factors of life. In this clip, Terence McKenna relates culture to being like the operating system that runs a computer. A clever approach. He talks about our current culture, its problems and how to fix it. He talks about our true nature and its relation to our culture.



Who controls our culture? Is it our governments? Is it our history? Is it undefinable?
What can we do to align our culture more with our true nature?
Do we truly perceive reality correctly?
Does our culture contain beliefs that limit the growth and evolution of the human soul?
Is it time to redefine our belief systems of reality? Or are we already on the ball?
