The Braintec-implants
Braintec has developed a method to copy MEMES (memories), take them out of the brain and store them in binary code outside the body. These codes can be re-introduced at a later point in time to stimulate the memory area of the brain, through which the concerning memories can be re-experienced.

The Braintec-implant is a small device placed surgically into the temporal lobe. It contains several microchips that make it possible for the brain to communicate with a server outside the body. This server is a round device technically similar to a Transcranial Stimulator. A stimulating substance in the outer layer of the implant causes the surrounding nerve-cells to make connections. That is how the implant gets connected in quite a unique manner with the nervous system and how it uses only a miniscule amount of energy from the surrounding cellular tissue.

Braintec has developed two kinds of implants. The smallest implant, called MSI (Magnetic Stimulator Implant), is only 2 cm in diameter and capable of sending memories from the server to the memory area. The MESI (Magnetic Extractor Stimulator Implant) is also capable of extracting the memories to the server outside the brain.  This increased capacity is what makes the MESI twice as long. The Braintec-implants send the memories back and forth from exogenous devices like a service hatch.

Until now the re-introducing of MEMES was only possible under surgical circumstances, through direct stimulation of the amygdale and the hypothalamus. Through our method the skull has to be opened only once, to place the implant, after which unlimited experimentation in exchanging memories becomes possible. The amount of side-effects has declined to such an extent that it is possible to perform extended research on the function and perception of memories. There have already been sensational discoveries that gave us new insights in several mental disorders. They will probably result in some new treatments.

The extraction and the uploads
As described above, it is only possible to extract memories from test subjects with a MESI-implant. These extractions take place under deep hypnosis. Only 14% of all test subjects can be hypnotized easily and deeply enough to receive a MESI. During an extraction, a device we call the Extractor M-35 is placed diagonally above the left ear. The biological data is send through the MESI to a server at the back of the extractor. The data is stored in binary codes in a small plate inside the server. These plates are called M-Stores; they actually contain the MEMES or memories.

The re-introducing of these memories is called uploading. During an upload the server with M-Store holder and M-Store is placed above the left ear, after which the binary codes are uploaded from the server through the implant towards the area surrounding the amygdale and the hypothalamus. The neural network takes over these qualia almost directly and activates the whole system to process the newly arrived information. Test subjects with an MSI-implant can only upload memories that are not their own. Only subjects with a MESI-implant are capable of re-experiencing their own memories as well. How they perceive these memories is depending on the perceptions they have gathered through time. Every test subject has their own unique experience. Most of the test subjects find an upload surprisingly pleasant.

During the early stages of our research we worked with very basic memories only; for example the memory of a red balloon. Later on we started to work with more complex memories like the remembrance of a location, general impressions or events. It didn’t matter how old these remembrances were. When we start working with a newly inserted implant, we start with basic memories before we go on to the ‘important stuff’. 

The amount of test subjects with a Braintec-implant grows by the day. Are you interested in recalling your own or other people's memories as well?
