Bio

Hello! My name is Mia, and I have always been fascinated with figuring out the patterns of my mind. Further on, I have always known that we spend our entire life crafting our minds' base algorithm. Be it through learning, experience, or interacting with other individuals. The altering, strengthening, and creating of neural network connections enhances the base algorithm of our brain. Artificially programmed neural networks are already attempting to replicate the neural connections of our brains. The next step is to finally uncover the mystery of our thought patterns. Seeing the visual creations of our own or another person's mind has unbounded potential. I see the repeating patterns everywhere. In life processes, math, and music, there is an algorithm for everything. Where do creative ideas stem from? What images do painters try to transfer onto the canvas? How do musicians write songs that have never been heard before? This idea has circulated in my mind for years; how can we gather the visual creations and thought patterns of our mind and transmute them into reality? That would require the correct electrode connections to the brain, but it is not enough. We need a device that picks up creative visual images, which are not the same images that the visual cortex processes. I firmly believe that transmuting the visual images of our mind will bring our collective consciousness to a different level, most importantly, to be able to ask better questions about the future and bring these innovations to life.
