Your digital brainwaves turn into messages with the neuro-interactive BCI-device brain-messenger. Our brain communicates via electrochemical signals. Nowadays, brainwaves can already be measured wirelessly and precisely in a few seconds using high-end neurotechnologies. Unconscious reactions to the outside world are unavoidable for most people. The neurointeractive application brain-messenger uses this human characteristic as a marker while measuring your brain activity. Your unconscious reaction to images is transformed into a “brain message to the world”. Via an electrode cap, your bioelectrical brain signals are recorded, digitalised, interpreted and sent as a digital message within a few minutes. Is it love ❤, anger or happiness 🤞🏻 that we unconsciously choose for ourselves? Could what are still technological experiments in laboratories today end up on our mobile phones tomorrow?
