You, Too, Can Feel The Whoosh!
The New Scientist reports: “Imagine a world in which there is no need to express your thoughts or emotions in words, where you can let others experience your brain states directly. This is what Michael Chorost calls ‘telempathy’: the ability to feel another person’s emotions through a technological connection to their brain.” Imagine the possibilities: when Wayne Rooney scores (above) that goal, or when Colin Firth steps up to the Oscar podium, you could be inside their brains, feeling the whoosh.
