Description:
Following studies on the morphological
and chemical characteristics, the brains
of intelligent rats, evaluated by
various trials, such as the output of
labyrinths, started a line of research
in which it was to determine the
relationship between intelligence ,
training and electrical waves associated
with the stimuli produced by the
interaction with the environment on the
functioning of the brain.
It was found that:
-
The brain grows because of the
stimulus, whether natural or
artificial
-
The stimulation
results in an electrical
characteristic vibration frequency
-
It is possible to
artificially stimulate the brain by
machines
-
The left brain
"drag" by the stimulus, resonating
with the frequency equal to this
-
The states of
mind present frequency electrical
vibration characteristics
-
You can play the
mental states directly or indirectly
by stimulating the brain with the
wave frequency associated with that
state.
This led to a revolution in the field of
applications of this technique, since it
can inter-act directly with the inner
part of the individual, without invading
their body chemistry, producing dramatic
effects at the level of:
-
Intellectual coefficient increases
-
Suppression of
anxiety, depression and phobias
-
Termination
addictions
-
Weight control
-
Super-Learning
and Learning
-
Peak mental
performance, physical activity and
high competition
-
Stimulation of
creativity
The application fields are expanding at
an incredible speed, to the extent they
have been designed new and more perfect
machines to stimulate and map inside the
brain.
Other equipment can be mentioned the
following:
The amount of equipment is extensive and
involved in this proposal is intended to
stimulate the creation of a center where
can learn to operate such equipment and
investigating its effects and possible
applications in the local environment.
Introduction
Rich versus poor environment
By 1992, at the University of
California, was available to skillful
families and raw rats that had been
selected for over 40 years (about 100
generations). It started out looking
like this difference was reflected at
the level of morphology and brain
chemistry in animals.
The skillful rat cerebral cortex had in
its higher content of acetyl
cholinesterase and other
neurotransmitters, compared with raw
rat. Similar results associated with a
qualitative increase in the complexity
of the cerebral cortex, as had been
observed since 1780 by Dr. Michael
Gaetano comparing trained animals
against untrained captive animals who
observed that differences at the level
of complexity and convolutions of the
cortex, were caused by the difference in
the training or experience of the
animals.
These results led to the Berkeley
scientists design the experiment
environment rich versus poor
environment.
After putting litters of rats,
genetically identical, in environments
that differ only by the quality and
quantity of sensory stimulation for a
period of 30 days, Rosenzweig and
Diamond doctors found large differences
in physical and chemical level in the
brains of animals in their experiment.
The scientists wanted to know whether
the results obtained by Gaetano and
themselves, were due to training,
genetic or otherwise, and therefore
tested the environment rich versus the
poor
Results of experiment
In the article by Scientific American,
February 1972 were analyzed, the
results, then in a very cautious way,
were extrapolated to generate new lines
of research in humans, for example
comparing the auditory regions of the
brains of musicians versus those of
normal people.
In the morphological appearance
-
Synaptic junctions 50% larger
-
Thicker axons
-
Increased number
of terminal arms
-
Increased number
of spines
-
More thicker and
branched dendrites
What causes these differences?
Were discarded include:
-
Handling
-
Voltage
-
Genetic factors
It was found that the main reason for
the change was greater chemical activity
of the cellular environment generated by
the increased electrical activity that
came in turn a greater number of sensory
stimuli
Upon discovering that the experience can
cause radical changes in the morphology
and brain chemistry, we immediately
asked if it is possible to transform the
cases where there is already a natural
conditioning. For example, what if a
gross litter trained rats in the
enriched environment?
After 30 days of training, rats improved
their gross intelligence and brain
characteristics to achieve intelligent
rats without special training..
In other words, we are seeing that old
law which states: «ORGAN
THAT IS NOT USED ATROPHY» and
vice versa «ORGAN
THAT IS STIMULATED DEVELOPS»
Electrical brain waves
How is the electrical activity of the
brain?
Is this activity can cause artificially
by machines?
The activity of the sense organs,
resulting in an electrical stimulus that
reaches the brain to specific parts of
the cortex. There, each neuron responds
with voltage between 1 and 5 micro volts
to stimuli that arrive. The overall set
of neurons produce an electric potential
noise to 500 microvolt, whose frequency
is determined by the type and amount of
stimuli and that can be classified as
described above.
Frequency versus brain activity
Many possible correlations between EEG
and activity of the person were
investigated, becoming established
correspondences as follows:
-
Creativity 12 Hz alpha waves
-
Concentration 4
Hz theta waves
-
Lack of binding
alpha
-
Bright Ideas
Coherence, phase
-
Meditation 8 Hz
Total consistency
Evoked potentials of the brain
By 1979 the scientist David Reagan,
University of London, investigating how
sensory stimuli in the brain are
handled, shows that the components of a
visual or auditory signal periodically,
can be extracted from the background
noise of the brain by use of a system
based on Fourier waveform analysis
technique or by adding transient
stimulation device.
Each cell contributes its own voltage to
show total electricity of the brain,
finding a clear relationship between
electrical stimulus and response. These
responses are called evoked potentials
(from 1 to 5 microvolt) and can be
observed through the scalp with a system
of statistical analysis of EEG waves or
by Fourier series.
The important fact is that if we take a
periodic visual stimulus to our eyes, an
electric wave of the same frequency will
play inside our brain. This wave could
be detected and in fact was detected by
Dr. Reagan.
The fact is transcendental, it shows
that may occur in an electrical signal
accurately within the brain using
external stimuli, and with the same
frequency at the same
In a parallel investigation,
neuroscientist W Gray Walter discovered
that when strobe flashes are sent to
closed eyes, the brain responds by
generating an electric wave of the same
frequency as the stimulus, not only in
downtown areas and olive groves
associated with vision, but in the whole
brain
In the course of other research, Dr.
Tomas Budzinsky of Behavioral Medicine
Associates Clinic of Denver, also found
that if they artificially stimulated the
brain with a given frequency, you could
play not only your own power wave, but
also the state he was associated with
this, as the brain left "drag" by the
stimulus.
Psychotropic stimulation machines
By 1982, the neuro psychiatrist Dr.
Dennis Georges, invented the first
device of light and sound stimulation
called "Opto
Acoustical Synchro Energizer" more
commonly known as MEGABRAIN.
Later, in 1986 the writer and researcher
of these issues, Michael Hutchison, in
1986 published his first book collection
on the subject, immediately becoming the
center of attention of many researchers.
His extensive knowledge and personal
experimentation with many of the teams
allowed to interconnect several research
paths with surprising results. Hutchison
becomes the catalyst of much research
and become the guru of the movement.
Stimulation machines, multiplied, and
many researchers smaller companies
garage type began to bring products to
market, facing FDA approval of their
equipment, which was finally achieved in
most cases. He currently has a wide
variety of equipment, including::
-
Inner-Stimulators Power-Brain Waves
-
Toys Light and
Sound - L & S
-
Cells of sensory

Bio feedback:
Some machines were made so that the
experimenter can observe a color
monitor, the predominant frequency of an
area of your brain. When prompted, you
relax and color mixing begins to change
the person realizes that it can
influence on your brain and your state
at will.
From the above machines, several of them
were made so that the experimenter could
observe the predominant frequency when
it ran a zone of the brain. When the
subject is connected to the machine,
seen in a sectional view monitor and
color of a brain. Then he asks to relax
and immediately mixing colors, begins to
change to pale green and blue warm reds.
In the moment when realizes that his
brain that is being viewed on the
monitor, again appear corresponding to
excitation red zones, the fact that in
the patient. At this point begins the
Bio feedback, to treat the patient to
return to cold and pale colors. By the
time you get it, the subject realizes
that is deeply relaxed and the subject
begins to enjoy a new capacity of your
brain. States of mind to suit our will
In the beginning, these machines began
to be used as aids in the process of
lowering tensions, such as relaxing, but
quickly observed, which could be used to
modify certain patterns of human
behavior related to the proportions in
which they were different waves inside
the brain.
It is at this point that applied
research really begins. Begin to unravel
the meaning of each type of wave and
mixing the quantities of each in
suitable proportions, resulting in
proven varied improving mental
processes. We are on the verge of
producing mental states, we want a
proper mix of sensory stimuli.
Other applications
Immediately began a race to identify
other potential applications, quickly
finding an echo in the following areas:
-
Normal memory and learning
-
Super-learning.
Lozanov Method
-
Altered states of
consciousness
-
Suggestions on
psychological therapies
More and more applications...
Two main streams of application were
distinguished. The patient dealing with
clinical applications, many problems
trying psychic and psychological origin
in some cases, or improving personal
performance in fields as diverse as
physics competition for high performance
and language learning in really short
time (less than 1 month). This gives
rise to the field of psychotechnology.
