Designing Systems for Cognitive Support
Promoting deeper learning and understanding in human networks
Building intelligent personified technologies that collaborate with people to help them learn, thrive, and flourish.
Advertisers are beginning to explore ways to market products to people while they sleep. A group of scientists talked to NPR about the risks
InspirationSleep is a forgotten country of the mind. A vast majority of our technologies are built for our waking state, even though a th...
"We can see the waves forming a tsunami that will come, but most people are just sleeping on a beach unaware"
Find out more about the new version of the system, "The Thinking Cap 2.0" here.Peoples' mindsets, meaning their beliefs about their own i...
Opera of the Future PhD candidate Nicole L'Huillier discusses her multimedia artwork with WBUR.
This is the actual stuff of nightmares.
Sleep and dream researchers are urging for an advance tightening of advertising law to nip all this in the bud before it starts in earnest.
“The potential for misuse of these technologies is as ominous as it is obvious.”
After Coors sought to steer unconscious minds to thoughts of beer, scientists have called for curbs on ‘targeted dream incubation.’
In this work we suggest to harness the power of knowledge-seeking positive experiences, engagement, and curiosity that objects perceived ...
What Is TDI?Targeted Dream Incubation is a method for guiding dreams towards specific themes. It is a proposal both magnetic and unl...
Researchers in the Fluid Interfaces group and elsewhere are hoping to learn more about how and why dreams are generated, and their effects.
Dormio is the result of several year's worth of research conducted by the Media Lab's Fluid Interfaces group.
Vega and his colleagues tested Dormio on group of 50 people this summer. Read about their results.
Guided dreaming could be used to boost creativity or to confront sources of stress and trauma.
Revealing insights into the human condition and repairing brain disorders via novel tools for mapping and fixing brain computations
The brain is a three-dimensional, densely-wired circuit that computes via large sets of widely distributed neurons interacting at fast ti...
Complex biological systems such as brain circuits are extended 3-D structures made out of nanoscale building blocks such as proteins, RNA...
Changing storytelling, communication, and everyday life through sensing, understanding, and new interface technologies
Device not only helps record dream reports, but also guides dreams toward particular themes.
New molecule for imaging calcium in neurons reduces crosstalk from neighboring neurons.
