I would like to see Mindball <<http://www.i-p.se/index.aspx?page=mindball>> at the workshops too.
Video games are not my forte (I kicked my video game
habit at 12 to spend more time studying science.), but
it would be progress if we could use advancing biosensor technology to
change our attitudes and psychology to create and maintain more constructive relations.
(Maybe Mindball is not a solution, but I do like the fact that it is being researched.)

'Mindball is an experience product, a game where two players control a ball with their brain waves. The player being most relaxed wins the game. The brain waves are detected by sensors attached to the headbands. The sensors (electrodes) are connected to a biosensor system. The biosensor system, registers the electrical activity in the brain \u2013 so called EGG. The brain waves increasing the chance to win Mindball are called Alpha- and Theta waves. '
