Power Naps and Sleep
Filed under: Here is some crazy little scientific development.
Scientists have found a way to turn on deep sleep using a machine that magnetically stimulates the brain.
Such a device worn on the head could in future squeeze the benefit of eight hours’ sleep into just two or three hours.
Some months ago I read about medication that has the same effect, but anyone brave enough to consider this probably just plays a role in some big experiment. With Second Life gaining traction and now this, the future could soon become bizarre. The press is getting filled with the negative effects of cutting-edge science such this on people’s lives.
