When somebody asks you, “what are you thinking about these days?” wouldn’t it be nice to just hand them a “thought” they can load into their own head, rewind, rethink, and extend for themselves?
This is really the problem I’m working on these days: portable thought streams

My hypothesis is that this is the dual problem to the problem of psychohistory, and once you crack portable thought streams, you’ll have a viable attack on psychohistory.

Think of it as memetic cloning. In the limit, transferring all active thought processes to another mind. Not upload to cloud, but pass-forward, like a newton’s cradle momentum transfer. I wrote about a restricted version of the idea (memory transfer) here ribbonfarm.com/2014/03/06/imm

At its core, its an encoding process of thought streams through some frame of symmetry no?

Danielle Bassett's group from UPenn is formally describing fMRI patterns cycling throught axon tractography maps... Some early conclusions would interest you

Aaaand now I want to build a distributed brain machine, based on "continuation passing style" (CPS) communication.
(Which is what you've reconceived here basically, for brains.)
Then I can retire to the thought pool and live out my days as a server.
