About a week before the midterm began some of my friends and I were working on an idea for a contest held by some organization. I believe it was some place related to the ministry of education...maybe not. But anyways, our idea was about the things we could do if we could visualize our imagination. It seems very vague when I put it that way, so I think I'll need to explain a bit more. (You don't really have to read it if your not interested:)just watch the video^^that I made by myself) Well our idea started from a paper that described about the technology of visualizing what we are looking at through interpreting our brain waves. (Reconstructing Visual Experiences from Brain Activity Evoked by Natural Movies by Shinji Nishimato) So we thought about how we could extend on this and make it into an idea that is creative and actually useful. We came up with the idea that if we can extend on this technology, we might be able to visualize the imaginations of people. With that, well we could do anything, really. Psychological therapies, creating a database, anything. Eventually we came up with CEE(Communication, Emotion, Empathy). It's basically sort of a Facebook-like database system that allows you to upload what's in your mind. The video here--I made it--is sort of a advertisement for our idea. Anyways I just wanted to share the idea somewhere;)
Cool woochan! although i've already seen this video before. fresh ideas you got there. ㅋㅋ
ReplyDeleteWow! How did you make the graphics? Very dramatic "trailer" for your idea. I don't doubt something like that will evolve in the distant future. It's a very science-fiction like idea. What are the pros and cons to something like this, though? In any case, you might have a future in media design. Very cool.
ReplyDeleteI'm reminded of this TED talk. Check it out:

Hmm..really interesting idea that she talks about:) I understand why my post reminded you of the TED. And about the graphics, theres a app on my mac that visualizes the pictures that you select in 3D. I captured the thing and then used Windows movie maker to put in the words and BGM.
