Mind in the cloud

No comments
The brain as a private body, not a crown of perfect. What we know, it is difficult to convey to others. Theories, ideas, impressions. Mankind was obliged to create "intermediate" links, in order to share that information. But the information was distorted and continues to be distorted due to the imperfection of its carriers.
On the one hand, we can work on the language. Coherent and correct communication will require a powerful linguistic database, in which each word corresponds to one value. There is no ambiguity. No subtexts, fuzzy sounds and other factors that distort the information. How realistic is such a system? For people working in specific areas, it is clear the need to create something similar. Programmers and physicians, more than anyone, understand the horror of misinterpretations. Moreover, they have come up with completely different ways out of the situation. In medicine it is used "forgotten" language as it is now in terms unique to all the inhabitants of the planet. Calling a particular area of ​​the body, we can be sure that the doctor in another part of the world will call him as well. Programmers also "invent" their own languages, allowing to describe the specific actions.
But if it is possible to unify the way of communication, then what about those industries that by their nature - metaphorical? Arts, culture, humor ... These are the areas in which the ambiguity allows storylines to play on the feelings, to create a kind of "atmosphere". Of course, they leave some vital treatments and sayings. Or, thanks to technologies that allow authors to demonstrate directly that they want. Record several sets of images, pictures, memories. Technology allows you to send a sound, then the image. Now comes the process of creating a program "smells". Not to mention the fact that the supply of simulated rides wind, water sprays, body position. But any information transmission methods play a role of a "buffer", making it impossible to fully express what the author thinks.
Today, each of us can create a cloud server and send to virtually any content (as long as enough memory). So why not continue this trend? Removing and decoding brain signals directly. Construction activity peaks, tracking release of certain hormones, ECG recording ... So far, we can only write these indicators. But what if we are able to produce them? And not from the same person, and someone else? Moreover, to keep all the data so that access to it is available to any interested person.
Direct experience of the famous scientist, feel stuntman experience, learn other health ... Communication on the "intimate" level. It seems wild, and violates personal boundaries? But half a century ago seemed wild reduction of the length of skirts and demonstration laps.
Technology allows people to be closer, more tightly integrated. And how to use the tools offered - we choose ourselves.
