Entry
As braindance's popularity spread, public opinion divided into two camps: those who saw the new technology as a revalation, and those who saw it as a threat. Some predicted braindance would save humanity as we know it, bringing an end to unecessary conflict and ushering us into a new utopian age of mutual understanding and respect. After all, the argument went, if you look at yourself from your enemy's point of view, if you understand him deeply – and vice versa – he ceases to be your enemy.
Others, however, foresaw a wave of new addictions, deepening isolation and societal division, even a crisis of identity.
In the end, the market proved both views right – braindance became an everyday product, another form of entertainment, but also a new form of surveillance.
In essence, braindance is the transfer of the conscious experiences of the person who recorded (or "scrolled") them to one who "relives" them. The raw material must first be processed, or edited, before it can be used.
