Question 01/99
MIND READING
Thought is an electrical activity of the brain and therefore it should be possible
(at least in principle) to read your mind from a distance by monitoring the
electromagnetic radiation. Unfortunately, the useful signal will probably drown in the sea
of noise. What is the minimal time required to receive one bit of information (one
bit of thought!) transmitted by your mind at a distance of
one meter?
This question was considered in 1970s by D.S. Chernavskii. We will appreciate
any info and references on works regarding this specific question.
