Humankind is signing off by creating avatars for real to treat LRAD voices!
The Avatars (funny video)
http://youtu.be/upimfeQXRNs The video maybe funny but the reality is n't so funny! First they you're being a T.I. ...they put the voices into your had whit LRAD and then you can show them what faces goes along with those voices. Man, how stupid can we be?! We are going to create there population after they released there Bennu bird (better known as The Phoenix)
Is there anyone who see the outcome of this?
Those freaking asseholes want us to get used to the idea of cyber people delivering a pizza or sit at the counter of the supper market.
They want you to get used to the idea that the Watson system is going to take over.
If you accept this kind of bullshit and take it for granted, the dream your are living will go deeper into the cyber-reality.
AVATARS could be used to treat schizophrenia by helping control the voices patients hear inside their heads
- Schizophrenic patients create avatars by choosing a face and voice for the people they believe are inside their head
- They can then talk to the avatars and force the hallucinations away
- Because patients know the avatars can’t harm them, it can boost their confidence in handling future episodes
An avatar system that can help schizophrenics control the voices in their heads is being developed by British researchers.
As part of the therapy, patients create an avatar by choosing a face and a voice for the person, or persons, they believe are inside their head.
Therapists can then encourage the patients to oppose the avatar and force it away, which boosts their confidence in dealing with their hallucinations.
A new treatment for schizophrenics uses computer avatars to help them manage their hallucinations. The patient chooses a face and a voice for each hallucination. The therapist then encourages the patient to oppose the avatar and because they know it can’t hurt them, patients can confidently manage their delusions
HOW DOES THE SYSTEM WORK?
The first stage in the therapy is for the patient to create a computer-based avatar, by choosing the face and voice of the entity they believe is talking to them.
The system then synchronises the avatar’s lips with its speech, enabling a therapist to speak to the patient through the avatar in real-time.
The therapist encourages the patient to oppose the voice and gradually teaches them to take control of their hallucinations.
The avatar doesn’t address the patients’ delusions directly but the study found the hallucinations improve as an overall effect of the therapy.
This is because patients can interact with the avatar as though it was a real person, because they have created it, but they know it cannot harm them.
Many of the voices heard by schizophrenics threaten to kill or harm them and their family.
The researchers, from University College London (UCL), claim that the computer-based therapy could provide ‘quick and effective’ help for managing the disorder and it is far more successful than current medical treatments available.
The system could also help reduce the frequency and severity of episodes of schizophrenia in future cases.
During initial tests, 16 patients were given up to seven 30-minute sessions of therapy.
The team of researchers discovered that all of the patients reported an improvement in the frequency and severity of the voices that they heard.
Three of the patients stopped hearing voices completely after experiencing auditory hallucinations for 16, 13 and 3 and a half years respectively.
The avatar doesn’t address the patients’ delusions directly but the study found the hallucinations improve as an overall effect of the therapy.
Professor Julian Leff, Emeritus Professor in UCL Mental Health Sciences unit, developed the therapy and is leading the project.
He said: ‘Even though patients interact with the avatar as though it was a real person, because they have created it, they know that it cannot harm them, as opposed to the voices, which often threaten to kill or harm them and their family.
