What Is A Neural Lace? Interesting use cases for injecting a mesh machine into your brain

I. The Latest Discovery

Now, in their latest paper, they describe the ability for not just an electronic mesh to be injected into living tissue, but to be fully integrated into a brain for an extended period of time.

In this case, the electronic component was implanted into a mouse brain and recorded neurological activity over 8 months, nearly the entire life of the mouse. Extrapolate that into a human’s life and you start to get a sense of the cyborg future we might all be living in.

Charles Lieber of Harvard is the leader of this new approach, recognized as the leading Chemist in the world for his work in nanotechnology. It sounds like something straight out of a Michael Crichton novel, but this is now squarely in the territory of scientific fact.

The brain’s tissue grows within the cylindrical and open nature of the mesh and, because it’s not a rigid material, the body’s immune system doesn’t reject it.


SNIP

Below are a few use cases that scientists are already beginning to work on:

SNIP

It’s actually changing body’s electrical connections inside your brain and your nervous system. The technical term for all of these body connections is connectomeMost people incorrectly think the Connectome refers to only the connections in the brain. But if you just have knowledge without movement, you have nothing. The connectome is the entire electrical system inside your body.

The neural lace can augment, and also, change it on the fly.

And that’s why it’s such a powerful technology. With one injection, you can smash bombs like Babe Ruth. Or swim like Katie Ledecky. Or become a medical doctor in a millisecond.

[Elon] Musk stated publicly that given the current rate of A.I. advancement, humans could ultimately expect to be left behind—cognitively, intellectually—“by a lot.” His solution to this unappealing fate is a novel brain-computer interface similar to [an] implantable “neural lace.”

I believe they have nanoparticles now that can be injected which will come together after injection and manufacture their own network on site. Sort of mini factories. Because there is no physiological basis for graphene oxide to be in the vax, this is what has been postulated as the purpose of graphene oxide and its accompanying hydrogel in todays vax. The question remains - how much of this stuff needs to exist in the brain before communication can be achieved, which may explain the cover story behind follow-up ‘boosters.’

Exactly. This is horrific. God help us.

Umm, am I mistaken, or isn’t Lieber the guy who got arrested by the FBI for taking $50k/month under the table to help China develop a nanotechnology center in Wuhan?

Oh wait...

Wuhan...
nanotechnology...
mesh machine...
...graphene oxide?

N’aaah, couldn’t be.

Maybe you think it was the Schlemmelmayer Effect that made my uncle Otto famous. Well, it's all how you look at it.

He discovered the Effect back in 1952 and the chances are that you know as much about it as I do. In a nutshell, he devised a germanium relay of such a nature as to respond to thoughtwaves, or anyway to the electromagnetic fields of the brain cells. He worked for years to build such a delay into a flute, so that it would play music under the pressure of nothing but thought. It was his love, his life, it was to revolutionize music. Everyone would be able to play; no skill necessary - only thought.

Then, five years ago, this young fellow at Consolidated Arms, Stephen Wheland, modified the Schlemmelmayer Effect and reversed it. He devised a field of supersonic waves that could activate the brain via a germanium relay, fry it, and kill a rat at twenty feet. Also, they found out later, men.

If you look closely you can see the NPR receptors in the frontal lobes of the female brain.

I hear they’re experimenting with this to treat therapy-resistand depression.
