Peering into the Mind's Eye: Visual Image Reconstruction from Human Brain Activity

I created this video based on a series of images published in an article from the journal Neuron, referenced below. On the left, you see what the subject of the experiment sees. On the right, you have a reconstructed image that was made by a computer solely by examining the subject's brain activity. The article hints that this technology could be used to record what you see in your dreams. Awesome!

The article is Visual Image Reconstruction from Human Brain Activity using a Combination of Multiscale Local Image Decoders, published in Neuron. It can be found at http://www.cell.com/neuron/abstract/S0896-6273(08)00958-6.
