Interesting. There's a whole class of these non-invasive field methods to affect human brains - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcranial_magnetic_stimulation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcranial_magnetic_stimulat... is another similar idea. I have this cool book that I've recommended before on this site called Neurochronometrics of Mind or something close to that which discusses a lot of the data around these methods. It's super dense but I was interested in trying to build a device 10 years ago and was discouraged by most. Seems like the data points to it potentially yielding a plethora of positive outcomes if done properly, but probably not by a non-clinician. Really interesting stuff. Imagine watching your own brainwaves with a 4096 channel OpenBCI kit (openbci.org iirc) and then engaging in a biofeedback experiment where depending on how you consciously react to seeing your various brainwaves in real-time, the hypothetical combo device also has a series of rTMS tori that each selectively expose you to varying gauss levels (give me some rope here I'm not a mad scientist) that the various parts of your brain get exposed to. Not sure how applicable or useful it might be but it's interesting to think about. A colleague of mine worked on visualization of brain waves for technological applications and told me it was a pretty wild experience to see your brain waves in real-time while also watching them in parallel, so I imagine creating a tight feedback loop with an inbound magnetic field in response to your thoughts might have some weird and possibly pretty trippy effects. Disclaimer: don't do this, this is probably how you get spontaneously generated warp singularities appearing in your lab
