Japan's "Brain Disco" Kicks Out Boring DJs

Did you ever go to a club and leave soon because the DJ's music sucks? Well, you don't have to run away anymore. The same company that brought us the very popular magical thinking cap known as "Necomimi" Japanese Cats Ears For "Communication", neurowear has teamed up with Qosmo for an all new wacky brainwave scanning device known as the Brain Disco! What is a "Brain Disco"? Well, perhaps it is best understood in the manufacturer's own words:

neurowear, teamed up with Qosmo (http://qosmo.jp/), developed "Brain Disco", where DJ must maintain audiences' "attention", measured with brainwave sensors, in order to keep DJing. If the average attention value remains less than a given threshold, DJ gets kicked out. The first Brain Disco experiment has been held at Gallery KATA Ebisu in July 26.

Below is a short promo video for this new useless contraption high-tech mind reader:

Japanese Cats Ears For "Communication"

This latest wacky Japanese fashion invention called "Necomimi" comes from the nerowear company. This is a headband that receives brain transmissions and activates the pink pussycat ears to express "communication" or interest in someone or some thing:



This is somewhat reminiscent of the Aum Shinrikyo's very own invention of the Perfect Salvation Initiation Cap that would "stimulate the brain and synchronize the brain waves with those of the master." Riiight.
