The goal of the course “Mind Games” is to creatively implement the potential offered by EEG headset technology in development of innovative gaming concepts. We research the neural, psychological and structural aspects of the gaming experience, analyze the progressive approaches to the medium and overview the future tendencies. At the end of this Workshop the game-concepts and prototypes will be elaborated.

40. The goal of the course “Mind Games” is to
creatively implement the potential offered by
EEG headset technology in development of
innovative gaming concepts.
We research the neural, psychological and
structural aspects of the gaming experience,
analyze the progressive approaches to the
medium and overview the future tendencies.
At the end of this Workshop the game-concepts
and prototypes will be elaborated.

41. British physician Richard Caton
first noticed the brain's current in 1875.

42. Neuron Structure

43. The system involves
hooking up several pairs of
electrodes on a patient's head.

44. In deep sleep, the brain transmits delta waves,
which fire one to four times per second. Extremely
common in very deep meditation, staying
conscious during this stage takes practice.

45. In light sleep, theta waves fire about
four to seven times per second. Occur during
heightened states of creativity and are found
within a deep meditative state.

46. Alpha waves, which we emit when we're in a
relaxed, conscious state, come next at about
seven to 13 pulses per second. This is an excellent
state to be into program your mind.

47. Beta waves, which reflect a very excited,
focussed on activities or stressed mind, fire
fastest at 13 to 40 times per second.

49. EEG tests can reveal diagnosing epilepsy,
sleep disorders, tumors and the effects of a
head injury or determine whether a coma
patient has become brain dead.
