There is now technology that allows you to “fly” into your brain and see in real time the activity of the brain (click to watch the video).  You can control your brain.  You can control your brain.  You will be able to take a look at all of the aspects that make you who you are and will have the capabilities of programming your brain.

In one of my doctoral classes, after the first day the students had written on the board (before the professor walked in) “Bootcamp for the Brain.”  Dr. Issler went to the board and crossed out Brain and wrote “Mind.”  It was an insanely hard course and both the mind and the brain hurt after every second in that course.  I know what he was trying to teach us – that the mind is what we think we not the brain, after watching this presentation on the programming of brain, I can see and understand why my brain hurt also.

I like the idea of being able to see how you feel.  I like the idea of being able to reprogram the channels that each experience brings – that’s part of the reason why it’s hard to forget or hard to get rid of that feeling of pain – a channel was created because of it.  This technology can reprogram that and get rid of the pain or the feeling.

I like all of these ideas, but technology changes us.  It conditions us and the way that interact and relate to people.  A screenname has changed us, but now we’re talking about going into the brain to see it work to reprogram it.  I know the technologists and scientists are really thinking about the deleterious effects on the psychological make up of a person.
