Remote-Controlled Humans

If you give people controlled electric shocks behind the ear, they move uncontrollably towards the side of the electric current. So a Japanese scientist has made a remote control that zaps you behind the ear to steer you around.

This sort of electrical stimulation is known as galvanic vestibular stimulation, or GVS. When a weak DC current is delivered to the mastoid behind your ear, your body responds by shifting your balance toward the anode. The stronger the current, the more powerful its pull. If it is strong enough, it not only throws you off balance but alters the course of your movement. click for Forbes article

Here's a video (in Japanese) that shows a woman being remotely controlled. I like the way she giggles and wobbles uncontrollably around the place. click for Forbes video

Banksy pt2

I first heard about Banksy last year after a TV news item and an email from a friend. He's a graffiti artist from London who's become quite famous.

Here's his latest work on the wall around the Palestinians in Gaza.

One old Palestinian fellah wasn't too pleased. Banksy records on his website how this old Palestinian geezer said his painting made the wall look beautiful. Banksy thanked him, only to be told: 'We don't want it to be beautiful, we hate this wall. Go home.'
