Ever gone to those secret advanced screenings where they give you a survey at the end? Didn’t really feel like answering them, so you just bullshitted everything just so you could leave early? Well have no fear, the future is here. And that future is Neurocinema.

Wired.com has an article covering this new technology that can really capture your feelings on a movie. From tense scenes to thrilling action scenes, neurocinema can help filmmakers enhance certain scenes with the aid of Neurocinema.

“We are only conscious of stimuli that last a few hundred milliseconds or longer. In fact half a second to two seconds is the typical duration of conscious experience. The movie industry has already discovered that this time frame is the same for interesting shots. Quicker and the scene looks jerky, slower and the scene gets boring. Can we see if the brain excites to a popcorn image flashing subliminally? We’d better have an answer in the debate about its illegality.”
