Transcript #2

> This is Doctor Theodor Clementox , leading researcher at Exerium Neuroscience and the creator of the Xeerimeinium Neurological Data Transfer Device prototype .

> I have made great leaps with the development of this spectacular system since I first tested it in 2003 and I'm here to showcase my discoveries.

> Firstly , the virtual environment to which the neural data is transfered has been slightly upgraded - it is now medium in size and resembles a garden .

> Keep in mind that his is only an early render , but it still is a big leap from the small natural landscape that was used in our first test.

> As for the user render , I am still having trouble properly simulating the body , so a placeholder of 3D Rendered geometrical shapes has been put into place.

> Now , I know a lot of our investors are eager to see the product fully working and used , but I am still trying to get over the major bump .

> I must thank you for allowing me to test on the elders which are being treated for their neurological issues at our main headquarters , but I'm afraid I have to report that the success of those tests were lamentable

> Many of the tested individuals were unsuccessful in going through with even the first part of the project . The insertion of the neural transfer rods proved to be too invasive for their already damaged brains .

> In those that managed to make it through the insertion I noticed an underlying issue - the brain is too weak and unreactive to produce enough neural data for transfer.

> Out of the 57 tested , only two managed to undergo the full procedure and had their neural data transfered into the virtual landscape .

> Unfortunately , the two did not provide enough brain activity to succesfully thrive in the simulated environment and the file was corrupted and made unusable.

> I managed to salvage some files from the corrupted program , but the outcome was only a series of .jpg , .png and .img picture files that served no real research purpose.

??-So the project is a waste?-??

??-Do you have information on what could be needed to make the device run efficiently-??

??-This needs to be quick , we have spent enough time playing around with time and money for you to entertain yourself with 'games' in your little virtual spaces-??

> Please , just let me finish - I understand that it is frustrating not to see results but I believe that I am almost at a breakthrough.

??-We're listening-??

> I Have been testing on the wrong neurological systems. The brains of animals , seniors and people affected by neurological illnesses are too weak for this device.

> My research suggests that if the system is used on a healthy brain it would most likely work succesfully and give the desired outcome.

??-So what test subjects are you suggesting for this testing on a "healthy brain"

> The brain of a newborn child is very neurologically active and healthy enough to sustain a data transfer. But for starters a healthy adult would do

??-You do realise we have no resouces to test on newborns and adults , right?-??

??-What you're suggesting will probably cost us way more than we can afford right now , not only economically but just imagine the publics reaction if they get hold of information that we're testing on babies and healthy adults-??

??-I agree , we have enough problems with these bloggers and conspiracy theorists as it is , we don't any extra headaches-??

??-Listen , Theodor , we all understand that you have been working very hard on this project , but it's just not coming together , is it? It would be best if we just terminated it-??

??-Yes, you would do much better using your knowledge on something more profitable-??

> No! It's fine! I just need some more time . If it causes you so much trouble- stop funding me , but just give me time to do this.

??-Care to explain what you want to do without our funding?-??
