A japanese inventor has created a pair of extremely powerful headphones than create distinct noises that effects the inner ear and it changes your balance according to the direction pressed on a remote control forcing you to moving in exactly that direction.

Wow, that reminds me of the romote controlled rats they showed on CNN. Imagine having control of an organic lifeform using a romote control.

It's an extremely profound show of our advances. Like the bio-mechanical crickets that are living crickets with chips in their backs that control all of their functions.

Indeed. It seems that we can't use these machines on dead animals yet though, for they require brain waves. Too bad, no electromancy for me.

we could probably reawaken the dead by generating brainwaves in their brains, and fixing up their body a littlke, punping them with blood, and addind hard-drive to their brains because all the braincells would be dead by now. Create an army of borg-like zombies.

MWahahahhaa! that sounds like loads of fun

Why an army though? Why not a worker's union? Or an undead punk band that really sticks it to the man. Yeah, that's it, we'll call it The Undead Kennedys.

well that would mean low (if any) wages if we made a workforce out of them....

Not a work force, but a union. Imagine, the man who makes sure that your pays are high enough eats brains. Who would want to lower your wages when they could have their brains eaten. I can see it now "ME DAMAND HIGHER WAGES! BRAINS! DOLLERS! UGH!". It would better the economy so much.

Dibs on position of "High Archnecromancer of Doom" .

dibs on the title electromancer!

ermm dibs on....... what else is there......

Dibs on being the founder of the evil Science in the first place since I came up with it. Call me Whackjobson, Doctor Whackjobson.

Have you all seen the mouse you can move with your brain?

I think logetech is developing it, awsome stuff

Oh yeah, I think my friend said something about that. Cool stuff.

interesting stuff. dibs on being the first zombie

Talk to me in the evil genius thread, I'll give you an application.

Actually, my wife invented this sort of "remote control" years ago. No matter what room I am in or what I am doing, she can command instant obedience with just a a few verbal cues.

Haha, I think every women is given one of those as a birthday gift.

at what? age three?

Around sixteenish I'd say.

Ah close enough.....

ooohhh....niice I´ll have to practise that on my hubbie sometimes..but he runs away....


Noo...really? where´s mine then?

you should have gotten it when you were born...talk to God, he may have an extra for you.

That's very scary, Japanese zombie robot men of death and ballet!

Well, they don't exactly have "zombies". They can only change balance in a human.

yep so you can only control where they go, you can't make them like grab stuff and do whatever you want.

Well, technically the term zombie originated in Voodoo, and meant mindless servant, not reawakened dead.

even then they wouldn't be zombies, since throwing their balance off doesn't stop them from thinking

No, but that's just a simple way of doing it. Eventually they'll get more complicated.

I don't think they would take over thought. That would be way to hard, you'd have to have access to the brain.

Yeah, it would be a long time, but its an eerie thought now that we can finally see it on the horizon.

Anyway, Red, I just finished a current event on Pat Robertson's threat against Hugo Chavez, want to read it?

A little off topic but sure.

I suppose all you could make people do is walk around. Knife in hand jabbing at people is optional.
