I mention Dr. Gallant precisely because he is *not* involved in any of this work. his work is in fact an independent discovery, albeit after others, using completely different technology. his approach can essentially "tap into" the signals of the brain up to a limit of the pixel resolution of an FMRI type machine. other approaches, and more expensive ones, are used to fully map the "linguistic terrain" of a person in the scanner, more or less creating a dictionary of all the words the person under observation know, not accessing the history of those conversations directly. that process, in addition to similar extractions of visual, smell, and other memory data creates a "mind map" of the subject.

in a processional context, this is called the "imagination library", meaning it represents the limit of the capability for imagination of the individual. for example, a person from the 1960s may have within their imagination library the concept of a computer so powerful it can run the world, although not one having yet been built, is within their imagination library. in our time, that same concept is expressed using different "props" and "set pieces" of our imagination library. these are the fundamental elements used by neurolinguistic programmers to make custom programs to control the minds of special forces operators, politicians with access to WMDs, certain business persons, etc... in a generally protective manner, meaning in the presence of a medical professional, and only for a narrow and pre-agreed to scope. i.e. don't install bloatware and spyware in their brains, only the programs agreed to.

this is all new versions of old techniques going back to the bronze age. see chemolinguistics.
