If you have one place in the world that you want to see more than any other, chances are you’ve visualized every aspect of what that trip would be like, including exactly how you would get there. Well, some lucky Russian shoppers had a chance to turn those images into a reality. Last week at a mall in Moscow, Russian airline S7 and Wieden + Kennedy Amsterdam set up a special game installation, developed by tech company Tellart, that hooked players up to bio sensors that measured their EEG brain patterns (that sounds like something pulled from an old sci-fi movie but we swear it’s real). By having a clear image of the dream destination in their minds, players used their brains to guide an airplane to any place in the world, and those that were able to do so along the best flight path won a ticket there. We don’t mean to be all “if you imagine it, anything can happen” about this, but technology seems to be doing that for us.
