# Telekinetic Light Shows The Interaxon Light Installation is Thought-Controlled By TopDog | Published 2010-02-04 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interaxon-light-installation References: [huffingtonpost](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/02/03/thought-controlled-lights_n_447783.html) & [gizmodo](http://gizmodo.com/5462636/thought) While some of the world’s top athletes compete for the coveted gold medal at the 2010 Winter Olypics in Vancouver, some other lucky people will be controlling a light show at Niagara Falls with their minds. The [Interaxon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/muse) light installation is a thought-control event by the computing company Interaxon. Sounds a little far fetched, but the Toronto-based company will be attaching the minds of several people in the Ontario Pavillion, to a [thought-controlled light installation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/psychoacoustic-light-ensemble) in Niagara Falls. Apparently, [alpha and beta brain waves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/muse-s-athena) can be transmitted over the Internet to enhance the light dispay. This means that I was right--that the Internet was actually created to be a worldwide mind-controlling hive. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.3/10 - Popularity: 39% | Activity: 83% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Thought-controlled Technology:** The use of brain waves to control technology opens up opportunities for new applications and experiences. - **Internet of Things (iot) for Mind Control:** Combining brain wave technology with the IoT allows for interactive and immersive experiences. - **Mind-controlled Entertainment:** Thought-controlled installations and shows provide a new form of entertainment and engagement. ### Who This Affects Most - **Technology:** The technology industry can explore the potential of thought-controlled devices and applications. - **Entertainment:** The entertainment industry can leverage mind-controlled installations to create unique and immersive experiences for audiences. - **Healthcare:** The healthcare industry can investigate the use of brain wave technology for therapeutic purposes and assistive devices. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Mind-Controlled Smart Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/migu-headband.md) - [Unique Interactive Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-aurora.md) - [Winter Light Art Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nordic-lights.md) - [Wonderous Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/your-psychoacoustic-light-ensemble.md) - [Calming Meditation Headsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightvision.md) - [Neurotechnology Gaming Headsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neurable-x-hyperx.md) - [Assistive Brain-Sensing Headsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/think2switch.md) - [Immersive Light Show Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/llumi.md) - [Sensory Immersion Activations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/enlightenment-by-eonarium.md)
