Mind Streams: Streams of memories
Brief description:
Two professors have achieved something unprecedented: With the help of the latest medical and computer technology, they are able to convert traumatic memories into videos. This footage shows the memory that the person originally experienced from the first person perspective as captured by an action camera.
The motives of the two scientists are purely medical aspects: With these videos, traumatized people should be able to confront the trauma directly as part of a coping therapy. An Auschwitz survivor learns about the procedure and contacts the professors, but not for therapeutic purposes...
A former employee who had migrated to Silicon Valley - shortly before the breakthrough - causes the two headaches. There, too, there is a lot of interest in said technology, also not for use in a medical context...
The idea for this came up a few years ago and ultimately many current (technical and social) issues flowed into the entire story. This is my first (completed) book, which was published in July 2019.
Big thanks goes toCatherine Netolitzkyfor the cover design of the 2nd edition.
The book was published by TwentySix until April 21, 2021. In the future it will be distributed via Amazon Publishing.
