I was seven years old when officials from the U.S. Department of Defense took advantage of my family and introduced me to a research program known as the BRAIN Initiative—a classified DARPA project at that time. I had been removed from my family's home by school officials because of the problems I was having at home.
Rather than getting New Jersey's family services involved, I spent several days sleeping over the school nurse's house. During my stay, the school nurse took me to meet with a child psychiatrist for an evaluation, telling my parents that she wanted to screen me for depression. My parents faxed over some paperwork that featured a black and white version of the DARPA logo on it, not knowing any better. At the time, my father was a defense contractor with a well-known aerospace company.
The psychiatric evaluation never took place. Instead, the head psychiatrist on the unit took me by the hand and led me to what turned out to be an operating room. Within minutes, attendants grabbed me and forced me into a chair where they fastened restraints around my wrists and ankles. The last thing I remember observing during this experience was a robotic arm hovering over my head.
It would be more than 20 years before I learned that my brain surgery had been part of an experimental procedure, funded and sponsored by the Department of Defense. The procedure, which involved the implantation of a experimental self-powered electrode deep within my brain tissue, was intended to treat the symptoms of depression in children. Neither I, nor my family was ever informed by any government officials.
In fact, details surrounding the BRAIN initiative or self-powered neural interfaces would not reach the public until 2013 —more than 20 years after my surgery. The electrode that was placed in my brain during the procedure has been a source of mystery and concern for me since its accidental discovery this year. Since then, I have been working with researchers to understand more about the device, its purpose and what it means for our future as a society.I also wonder what ethical and privacy issues are created by the device's use of ultrasound networking technology.
The way in which the device works is complicated, but it boils down to this: The device uses ultrasound networking technology (which means it's using high-frequency sound waves) to transmit data from your head to a remote computer. From there, data scientists can use artificial intelligence algorithms to analyze your thoughts and feelings. It's also self-powered, meaning it harvests power from the human body. To think that my thoughts are being transmitted—in a way, stolen from me—every waking moment of the day is concerning.
As a result of that experience and the years that followed, I have been left with a number of neurological impairments that are not able to be diagnosed or treated by mainstream medicine. I was given every label and diagnosis imaginable before the discovery of the electrode. I've known doctors who refused to consider the possibility, or worse yet, dismissed my concerns outright.
What's most troubling, however, is that there may be thousands of other people who were victimized in the same way during their childhoods as well. If this is true, then we are all being used as human guinea pigs in a massive experiment. This is a betrayal of our trust as citizens, and clandestine projects such as this need to end immediately. The electrode is a technology that can be used to control people, and this may sound like science fiction to some. But I assure you, it’s not. This technology was developed by DARPA as a means of creating mind control. It's also known as "Project MKUltra", and it projects like this continue under the BRAIN Initiative.
I'm at a loss over who to turn to for help.
