They Created Tattoos That Track You Without a Device

Imagine getting a tattoo… that can track your health, location, or identity — and you don’t even need a device. Sounds like sci-fi? It’s real. Scientists have developed futuristic electronic tattoos that use special ink to monitor your body in real-time — from heart rate to hydration — and even transmit data without chips or batteries. But here’s the catch… could this breakthrough be the future of medicine? Or is it a step too close to surveillance under your skin?

Let’s explore how these tattoos work, what they can really do, and the wild implications they might have for your health — and your privacy.

ENGINEERING EARTH: Sci-Fi Solutions to Earth’s Problems — 4K Full Documentary

High quality 4K Download: https://melodysheep.gumroad.com/l/udffp // Soundtrack: https://melodysheep.bandcamp.com/album/engineering-earth-original-soundtrack // Mankind has become the pilot of spaceship earth, whether we like it or not. Half of all habitable land on earth is now dedicated to supporting human activity. And as of the year 2020, the mass of all man-made materials now outweighs the mass of all life forms on earth.

Despite all this, we are still newcomers – untrained pilots steering an ancient, ever-changing planet. If we want to survive long-term and continue to grow, we will have to make bigger technological leaps than ever before.

This film explores the wildest, most ambitious, most dangerous ideas to keep Earth and humanity thriving, by protecting each of its layers – from the lithosphere to the stratosphere.

Many of our ideas may never materialize, but by dreaming them up, we can open our minds to the full potential of human willpower and intellect. The future is ours to build.

Dancing to the dopamine reward threshold: How long-term addiction shifts music perception

Research led by Aarhus University in Denmark reports that individuals with substance use disorders experience a heightened urge to move in response to music with complex rhythms and harmonies.

Long-term use of cocaine and heroin disrupts dopamine signaling in the brain, depleting receptors and diminishing the effects of non-drug stimuli, such as music, to trigger pleasure.

Prior research has shown that music can activate dopaminergic pathways involved in reward, anticipation, and movement. Groove, the pleasurable urge to move to music, follows an inverted-U pattern in healthy listeners, peaking when rhythms fall into a sweet spot of moderate rhythmic complexity. Most people feel the strongest compulsion to move their bodies to the beat when those beats are neither too simple nor too unpredictable.

Spice Frontier: Escape From Veltegar | Pilot Episode

Their search for Earth’s lost spices just crash-landed them into a world of trouble! 💥 When the six-member crew of the Serrano wrecks their ship; Kent, C-LA, Ada, Eloy, Mod and Nexus must race against time and some mysterious planet inhabitants to escape before they become the main course.

What’s next for Spice Frontier?

Steamroller Animation is an independent studio that has thrived in a competitive industry for more than a decade. While we’ve built a successful business providing high-quality animation services, our budget for original content is limited.

Spice Frontier: Escape from Veltegar marks our first pilot-length episode, created with a new real-time pipeline in Unreal Engine. Over the past 3.5 years, we’ve invested our profits into developing this technological framework that will support a future range of incredible stories.

Spice Frontier is our industry calling card, and we’re seeking investment, co-production partners, broadcasters, and distributors to bring future episodes to life.

Support independent filmmaking so we can share more Spice Frontier with the world!
