His head from the throat up was enclosed in a sealed container from which the top of his bald head projected.His head from the throat up was enclosed in a sealed container from which the top of his bald head projected. Inside, Joe's unconscious eyes stared blankly into the darkness. An incision was made around the crown of Joe's scalp, which was then peeled back to reveal his skull. A precision micro-saw then cut a circle through the bone. The bone was carefully removed revealing Joe's brain. A team of surgeons spent some time implanting a mesh of fine wires in Joe's cerebellum. The leader explained their actions. "What we are doing here is connecting the subject's brain for a function plot using resonance mapping. An external impulse is applied to the body, or suggested to the subconscious, the brain responds. This point is then plotted on a three dimensional map, and stored in computer memory. This is not new technology, it has existed for at least ten years. The notable accomplishment here, is this; knowing where the function signals the brain, we now can duplicate that signal directly to the brain using a technique I call proto-resonance induction. What this means is we can act directly on brain responses, both conscious and unconscious. Leaving the conductive mesh under the skull will allow for future alterations without surgery. The potential for treatment of mental illnesses and obsessions such as drug or alcohol addiction is unlimited." "Is the subject ready?" "Good. Let's proceed." "To start the demonstration we will apply external stimulation to the genitals." After a short wait a green light came on. "Good. We have that mapped. Now we apply external stimulation to the subjects breasts." When the light came on he continued. "Now while stimulating the breasts we apply a signal to the area controlled by genital stimulation. The result is that the subject now finds manual stimulation of the breasts a sexually arousing experience." "Now here is how I can influence behavior. The computer is suggesting an embarrassing situation to the subconscious mind. |
