Telepathy machine reconstructs speech from brainwaves - New Scientist - New Scientist

Telepathy machine reconstructs speech from brainwaves: The team presented spoken words and sentences to 15 people having surgery for epilepsy or a brain tumour. Electrodes recorded neural activity from the surface of the superior and middle temporal gyri – an area of the brain near the ear that is involved in processing sound. From these recordings, Pasley's team set about decoding which aspects of speech were related to what kind of brain activity.
