Neuroscientists announce yesterday that they can do something extremely creepy with your nervous organisation . Using delicate surgical procedure , they canmake you finger your hands in your chest . That ’s right — they move your nervousness around so that when somebody touches your chest , it feel like they are touching your hand . There are veridical applications for this , such as allowing amputees to remap sensation to their artificial limb , but all I could reckon about were the fucked up applications like torture and mind ascendency .
Before this neuro - remapping technique let into the wrong hands , scifi creators need to write some account that warn us about the risk . allow ’s see a movie or book about how torturer are using nerve - remapping to re - route all nerve sensation to one field , which they then ball over and beat pitilessly . Or maybe they would just map their dupe ’s legs to their sleeve and vice - versa , basically make them ineffective to insure their tree branch properly and stultify them with concern ?
This nerve - remapping could also be rewarding in the scariest potential fashion . You could reroute the face responsible to orgasm into somebody ’s trigger digit , so that every meter they fired a accelerator pedal they would get a explosion of delight . Sort of like the mind - controlling Tasp weapon that Larry Niven invented for Ringworld . In that book , a chemical group of aliens utilize the delight - induce Tasp to condition everyone around them to delight obey their order .
