Invisibility

[Savage]

Modern science and research finds new methods to achieve invisibility.

Invisibility can be achieved by combinations of various technics;

Adapting to movement within the observers blind spot. All have a blind spot in the sight. We are very clever to not see want we dont want to see, and do it all the time. This can be used.

Masssuggesions, or instant hypnosis. Ready buildt up and prepeared.

Autohypnosis, one really must believe it oneself, and keep focus on it.

Inner visualizion, the invisible cloak build up by training and daily practices over time, by meditation, yoga and or other mental technics.

Training to move discreet, some people have that gift natural, to move unnoticed.

Achieving invisibility is a matter of training, not mystic at all.

And how it works does really not matter, if all concepts you as invisible. According to the nature of the state, eyewithnesses to invisiblity have not been considered too trustworty.

Also, the art of invisibility is old, and have been refined and used all over the world from ancient times. But really, it is not the greatest mystery.

So what about you...how do you consider invisibility?

[Savage]

Could invisibility have any practical use?

I mean exept of sneaking into the womens wardrobe...

And what about your own clothes? Invisible as well? Or perhaps one had to go around naked?

And how about animals? Would dogs and cats notice?

So, if you could be invisible, what would you use it for?

Free ride with the subways?

I vote "maybe". In science, nothing is impossible

[Menydh]

If you mean the ability to be ignored, I suppose so.

It doesn't work with me though. For some reason or another I am either loved or hated. But rarely anything in the middle.

[Carnyx]

Yes, social invisibility does exist. Invisibility would only be for a voyeurism purpose.

[Ferran]

Now you can read me, now you can't.

Of course it's possible.

[Faísca]

Sure as hell social invisibility is possible, just some months ago I met a guy who is my age and went for the same school as I did for about seven years. I swear I've never seen him before nor my colleagues did. Perhaps he was lying to me.

I can't really think of a use for invisibility... Perhaps controlling the stock market and become filthy rich, no?

Ohh, I forgot, one could go around naked in the street without being arrested, that's a use...

[Gil]

Possible yes, but not right now.
The human eye/brain does not actually "see" objects but rather their temporal reflection, seeing as we can only "see" in a certain spectrum. Provided you found a way to either divert light, reflect it negatively (meaning reflection without object input) then the subejct becomes invisible.
Invisibility similar to "The Invisible Man" (where a biochemical compost transforms somehow the human) is unlikely not to say ridiculous.

[Kernunnos]

I have recently read that the poor western science has been able to start reaching for mechanically induced invisibility by finding a way to deflect light rays around objects, so objects won\'t send back light, as it happens normally. We see things because we get back light from them. Nothing too philosophical (I like the philosophy Savage is expounding, it is interesting), but pretty useful. Anyway getting unconspicous by philosophical means could be a great self-education exercise.

Oh yes? Let me help your imagination then...What about the ladies wardrobe?

And if the morals were gone, money would neither be any problem, the challenge would be getting away with them, as the money would perhaps not be invisible?

Yes, I had read about this too, although I thought it was the Japanese who were behind it.

I found this video after a quick search:

Let's see how long it takes before the American military grabs this up.

[FlashVoyager]

I found a obtainable cloaking device on a extraterrestrial vehicle that crashed nearby here. I took some time to make it serviceable but it works well, I often used it to sabotage the American military base that was located here. There were other reasons for their departure

[Delbáeth]

It's amazing how short sighted one becomes when they're invisible. (Dumbledore for president!)

That may be the next step. An invisible US president is the next logical step after George "The Freedom Monkey" Bush.
