Max Sherover and sleep learning with the "Cerebrograph"...
Quote:
Thanks for sharing that... It sounds like very good advice. Clearly, you've tried this out yourself... Thanks for sharing some of what you found out! This is actually quite new to me... I did a bit more searching online... It seems the idea isn't new. Apparently - many years ago - a guy named Max Sherover created a "sleep learning" machine (which he called a "cerebrograph"). He basically combined a record player, a clock, and a "pillow microphone".... I don't know if it was commercially successful, but he apparently had some success with using it himself and with helping his kids memorize things. Here's an interesting article about it from Time magazine (from 1948!) - http://www.time.com/time/magazine/ar...855919,00.html It seems to me that back then, it would have been harder to do with the technology they had. For example, one side of an LP record is only 20-30 minutes long - and if you're asleep, you can't turn it over or change the record. However, with current technology (e.g. MP3 players, iPods, or computers playing digital audio), this short play-time is no longer a constraint... "Learning while you sleep" might be an idea where we just had to wait for the technology to "catch up" - so we could put it to best use! Fascinating... Thanks, Sandi! Best wishes, Dien |
