do you think recording your thoughts will ever be possible?

Hey Folks,

I was just thinking the other day about our LD and OBE and if one day it will be possible to record your dreams like a VCR, who thinks it may be possible?

As we can see our blood cells through a microscope, i am sure we should in the future be able to see our brains thoughts on a TV and record it through a VCR. I mean look at it, in the last let’s say 25 years, technology has really sprung forward you would think back all those years ago and think about the things that we have today as science fiction and well in a 100 years time, but we have managed so much in these 25 years. So i believe that we will be able to record our thoughts.

I thought perhaps we could record all our thoughts, our dreams, LD and OBE’s. But i also have another idea, maybe we can only record the thoughts that we remember, so after you wake up, only the Dreams, LD and OBE’s that we can remember will be recorded, thats just a thought.

Imagine it could be like the movie with tom cruise minority report, theres a scene where he drags one of those twins to some night club where he’s got this old friend that can connect the mind to some device that allows you to view thoughts on a huge TV screen, or even better as scientists are thinking that the mind lives on after death if thats true, and if they can prove it one day, then that scene in the arnold schwarznegger movie sixth day where they transfer all thoughts from one body to another will be possible, i hope so.

But then there is ethical problems like in minority report if you were under suspicion from say the FBI Of doing a criminal job, then they could see that in your mind after the criminal act and think you did it, when possibly you could of just made the thought in your mind whcih is, al a minority report and then your wrongfully imprisoned.

If scientists could work themselves around these issue and be able to justly create something that really worked without any flaws, then it’s going to be an amazing future, imaging waking up not be able to remember your dream, but then keep no dream journal and go to your computer and recorde all your thoughts into a computer journal. That will be amazing as we can see ourselves seperate every night from our physical body which people seem to believe, i cannot verify it but i still believe in OBE’S and LD as i have had them.

Anyway it’s a very intresting topic. I hope to see what your views are on this and if you think it will be possible.

well when that happens all the paranoid schizophreniacs are gonna go crazy (pun intended)

Probably… we can make blind people “see” (though they do not understand how to see so it doesn’t work well for them) and we can see through the eyes of cat.

30-50 years at the latest, probably more I would guess. That would be useful in many areas, medicine, crime (that would be scary), etc.

I doubt it will be easy to record exact thoughts, but i think it will definitely be possible to see what kind of topic it is you think about.

Like for example see if you are thinking about someone you love, hate, good things, bad things and so on.

i don’t think it can be possible to record our thoughts exactly like they are but at least i think that (in a distant future) we can record some kind of graphic defining our emotions but not images.

Recording our own thoughts moght be (relatively) easy.

Finding a way for people to “play back” other peoples thoughts might prove considerably harder.

There was a topic about it,but i cant find it:/

well ill tell you 1 thing. it would put the movie industry out of buisness. especialy pornography!

unless the pornography company created it. I could imagine… ‘make your wildest fantasies into a porno vid!’… I have to say, I would definitly buy it. :tongue:
