Mind Recorder / Player (MRP)

If there is one invention i desperately wish  would happen soon , it would be Mind recorder and Player . Lets call it in short MRP.

No dont get me wrong , I am not eager to tap other people’s mind . I want a device to record my own mind. Yes , One’s own mind ! All the varied thoughts of importance that flashes in my mind screen and some of which gets translated into blog happens when am riding. Even the idea of this topic came in one such driving occassion. Naturally , i cannot stop my vehicle inbetween the traffic or every second minute on the sides to jot down my mind thoughts nor am i blessed with a great memory to store it and retrieve it later. These days most of my “ gem “ of lines and ideas blooms when am riding. Earlier some years back , I used to get the thought flow in bathrooms ! But now bathroom has ceased to be my creative spot. Its the driving that gives me a creative high ! I know as much as one should not mix drink and drive , one should not mix too much of thoughts and drive. I cannot help it though. Even if i don’t intentionally think anything , my mind analyses random subjects and comes up with my own  take on it while driving ! How I wish those driving times that i have a recorder to record all that goes through my mind ! *sighs*

Scientifically speaking , i think it should be possible to convert our thought process into 0,1 and into bits and bytes and store it in gigabytes and terabytes. After all as science says our thoughts process is carried by neurons in a kind of electrical pulses. So obviously that means there is a method waiting to be invented to convert it into data and record it in a readable format !So it should be very much possible in near future atleast to have a MRP . I wish it happens in my life time !

Well , thinking about it there will be severe side effects and worries along with the invention. All good inventions are tend to be misused . So after the invention of this great device , we may have to tackle a host of problems . Foremost , hacking of our mind recorder !!!! Imagine , someone hacks our recorder and steals the whole data !!! The one final frontier of our own posession shall be gone for ever ! Privacy completely screwed up. Like the current computer hackers , there will be whole set of people hacking minds for fun , for serious crimes. OMG !!! imagining more into it shows a very scary , sorry , chaotic picture ! Our personal life , professional life etc etc all may go topsy turvy !!! Along with it will come a host of new age Anti-virus companies providing security solutions for our mind !!! What if some nerd implants a deadly virus and controls our mind ??!!!!

Argh …. I don’t want a mind recorder in my life time atleast !!!! I think at times , its better to carry forward our life with little drawbacks with a peace of mind rather than complicating it with advanced technologies and loosing our mind !!!

    we need a mind recorder. as i am writing this, i feel the presience even greater. my typing is very slow compared to what i am thinking. i have thought approximately 35 thoughts since the third sentence. all of them i have wished to express through type. the mediums are incompatible. so far.
    i think in words. i think in letters. i think in ideas that are spoken inside my head. the spoken part is of use to me. yet it always happens too fast to communicate.

    To talk about the posters problem… to hack is a question of perciverence. your mind would record hmmm, at least ten times what a video recorder records.there is way too much to filter through, even knowing of a ‘time stamp’.

    ever pushed the record function on your phone when alone? you still filter everything for posterity. to gain access to a perfect record of thought is to delude yourself.

    thoughts are imperfect. the whole of a thought is what you speak/write. it is still imperfect.

    i’ve thought too much. and written too little.

    i had yhe same ideea and serced for it to here. Its a good ideea but you haveve gone too far. It’s a litle diference between mind words recorder and ideeas recorder. Like speaking without sound. All i want is a Mind Recorder Player for Words (MRP-W). Mabe just a recoder, then download the .txt.

    Great one. We seem to be in the same dilema. You know i got to the bus stop after work today and waited for a bus all to no avail. So I decided to walk and the Mind Recorder came to my mind. Needless to say that mostof my brilliant thoughts have come to me while walking. Yes and in the bathroom also. I am quite disappointed that the white man with all of his sophisticaion has mot been able to come up with this device.

    It is my belief that if I am able to correctly capture a couple if these ideas then I will be on the verge of making history. Asides that I am beginning to find writing quite arduous and sometimes the actual thought gets mutilated while trying to pen it down. Anyway nice piece. I’d be glad to have your contact maybe we could discuss.
