Nike’s new FeelFree Headset is supposed to make you feel better, calmer and more relaxed. If the headset came with that blonde attached to it, I think it just might work.

Advanced technology has been pushed in the form of EEG binaural beats and bone conduction that read brain frequencies and change it toward the applied stimulus, without having a side-effect on user’s hearing. With 4 wave profiles—Meditation, Focus, Learn, Sleep to choose from, it looks we’ve taken a major leap as humans, for this concept lets us gain a substantial control over our intelligence-fueling tool.
 
"Oddly, after a single use, many young American children began disappearing, only to be found weeks later in a Asian sweatshop making Nike shoes. Adults appear to purchase only nike brand products."

I for one, welcome out new Nike overlords.
Perhaps the brainwashing will have some effect on the overweight nike wearing d-bags that parade around in highly branded everything. Perhaps they will become thin...
 
SHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..... it will all be ok! just put your happy head band back on!..... if you dont we are going to have to taze you again!
 
is it just me or does that photo look massively photoshopped? Like they had a pic of a girl laying pack and drew the headset on her?
 
I am curious to see the real or suposed science to back it up. How doe sit read the EEG. How does the beat calm you down?

Also, How much?
 
What I want to know is, can we use the thing to make the blonde attracted to nerdy computer techs?
 
As a person who suffers from:
Bi-Polar
Dysthymia
Aspergers Syndrome
Anxiety Disorter
and the ever-popular ADD
I have to say... I'd rather have the blond.

You forgot your fucking tourettes :D
 
Major step backwords I must say; Instead of people having to suffer and deal with their concisence and issues in order to grow to more mature people: they just can just turn this on and go into happy land...

"Brave new world" anyone?

:)

PS: Shame they couldnt show a real picture of it, instead of a rendered concept.
 
Another device to help people escape reality and it's shittiness, instead of them dealing with the issues that make them unhappy in the first place.

We need more pics of the blonde though.
 
Binaural beats are interesting things, I've had a collection for quite some time now, and if you've got the time (ranging from 5 minutes to an hour, 30 minute the most common) to meditate and listen, they can work wonders. Pricey though ($5 per "dose") http://www.i-doser.com/

Isn't that what we have alcohol for?
 
Nike?? I think I'd trust a tech hardware company more than an apparel corporation with this type of thing...
 
Using binaural beats to cure depression and all that other stuff is pure pseudo-science. There is no real evidence that you can change the frequency of your brain waves with them, let alone any evidence that it would be helpful if you could change frequency with them.

The comment about magnetic bracelets was right on, this is new age garbage just like the bracelets.

Whether binaural beats affect brainwaves is debateable. I doubt they directly affect brainwaves, but could in the same way that music could, or ice cream, or cute puppies.

However, EEG biofeedback can be used to train people to achieve specific states of focus and relaxation by showing them their brainwaves. I was able to try this once on an early EEG PC-capture device; they have a rudimentary video game where you make progress by sustaining a specific relaxed-but-alert state. For the wide range of mental "conditions" where that state of mind is an objective, this is actually quite promising.
