I've heard about this but never seen the video. It's fucking creepy how she just sits there smiling and laughing. I guess what else could you fucking do if somebody was steering you by remote control? Holy shit. I’ve heard about this but never seen the video.

Parents everywhere will soon be able to steer their unruly children rank and file via remote. The fruits of Jose Delgado’s crafty work. Dr. D came to the US in 1950 to work at Yale. Yale sure is popular among the evil world ruler types, no? Anyway, Dr. D was steering a bull around via remote as early as 1965, so this isn’t anything new. Makes you wonder what kind of tech is cutting edge behind the veil. That’s a fun little clip isn’t it? Parents everywhere will soon be able to steer their unruly children rank and file via remote.

I was getting ready to pull the Being John Malkovich reference, but you beat me to it! It also made me think of The Cell, and going into peoples' dreams! :) Awesome!

The automaton responded to electrical imuples sent from the lamprey brain. Yes, it's virtual reality, on the plus side. On the minus side, it's also a very different form of mind control, or perhaps some strange type of brain transplant procedure. A few years ago a robot was controlled by the brain of a lamprey.
