How to control someone else's arm with your brain | Greg Gage

Visit TED.com to get our entire library of TED Talks, transcripts, translations, personalized talk recommendations and more.
Greg Gage is on a mission to make brain science accessible to all. In this fun, kind of creepy demo, the neuroscientist and TED Senior Fellow uses a simple, inexpensive DIY kit to take away the free will of an audience member. It’s not a parlor trick; it actually works. You have to see it to believe it.
The TED Talks channel features the best talks and performances from the TED Conference, where the world's leading thinkers and doers give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes (or less).

I worked in the medical field as a phlebotomist when I was in college and a TA showed us this video. It was really interesting to see, do you guys think technology like this could help patient that suffer from muscular dystrophy? Like a physical therapist who could have sessions with their patient in hopes of recovering their muscle? Which could hopefully lead to a faster recovery.

[@josephkoch2262]

Honestly, it sounds possible.. With more advanced tech, someone could probably invent a way for an entire limb to be controlled. If that was possible, even a quadriplegic person would be able to have their muscles exercised to some extent. That could help people suffering atrophy. I wonder if we will see more medical uses

Rifty is spiffy

[@goncalobaia1574]

That's sadly not absurd Although it's fun if you can, it's called mentalism Not different than a hypnotherapist really But what I was saying is the way things are evolving, we're probably gonna be able to do that through technology, and the cell phones and all that are spied today all the time, what's gonna prevent the same from happening?

[@chickencurry1033]

gonçalo Baia are you saying that in the future possibly we can do this with phones?

1:44 to 1:46 she knows what he is going to demonstrate.. that's why she put her hand ready even before he asks her

[@josepablobermudez6283]

He probably ask them before the talk because he wanted to avoid that weird moment when he has to wait for someone to decide to be a participant, stand up and walk to the stage. And imagine how weird it'd be if nobody wants to go.

[@RandyMarshMurica]

@@cmamallik674 This isn't a magic show bud. People don't come on TED talks to perform tricks. People come to educate, inspire, or bring more attention to the topics they speak about. If this guy says hes a neuro scientist it's because he really is. If he says the technology hes using can do what he demonstrated, it's because it really can.

[@cmamallik674]

@@RandyMarshMurica maybe for demonstrating the science and possibilities they might be acting. The show gives a person a platform to imoart knowledge or share experience.. but doesn't vouch for any scientific realities. He just showed how they can control.. nit to do anything with reality or fakeness of any aparatus there

1850: flying in air is impossible 1920: reaching moon is impossible 1980: controlling others brain is impossible I feel very humiliated by the fact how science made all our impossible imaginations come true and made them very routine
