Machine Reads Your Head Bumps (Jul, 1931)
Machine Reads Your Head Bumps
YOUR character read while you wait is the amazing feat performed by a new machine called the “Robot Phrenologist.” A cap equipped with a battery of fingers fits over the head and sends electrical impulses to a recording device, shown below.
So what do you do if your head is the wrong shape? The cynic in me says that “normal” or “ideal” would be exactly like the inventor’s head.
Wow. Just wow.
I hope this is part of what finally discredited phrenology, since it was an automated, “perfect” thing that wasn’t subject to the sorts of subjectivity that a human phrenologist would use to fudge the results.
I’m applying to phrenology schools right now. Are you guys saying I should consider a different career?
Where have I seen this before?…
Oh yeah!…
