thanatos4 Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Ok, enough wishy-washy fluffy talk of the Consciousness Singularity, how do we do this thing? I want details. No crystalline, chakra, or third-eye nonsense. Just suggestions rooted in hard facts. Here are some concrete ideas for bringing about the Consciousness Singularity: FIRST STEP: Establish transpersonal consciousness 1) expand cingulate cortex and synchronize with other people's 2) synchronize thalamic rhythms between people 3) synchronize other brain activities between people 4) screw synchrony, let's hardwire two brains together 5) let's try augmenting one or two people's brains, either by enlarging, enhancing plasticity, or doing something else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thanatos4 Posted March 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 another way, genetic engineering:In the July 19, 2002, Science, Walsh and his colleague Anjen Chenn, now at Northwestern University School of Medicine in Chicago, described genetically engineered mice (targetting the gene beta-catenin) that develop cerebral cortexes with greatly increased surface area, so much so that the mouse brains have a more humanlike, wrinkled appearance. "It looks as if these wrinkles don't require any special genetic tricks. It seems to be a passive response to having a brain that's bigger than your head," says Walsh.

Buffy Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Endevour to make sense here or you will lose your audience. You might try do do what Dorothy did on the Yellow Brick Road: start at the beginning, and to cut off the cannonical response: no, do not tell us to just go to the website. You must explain yourself here in your own words: Hypography is about sharing and discussing ideas, not pontificating. Thank you for your cooperation.
