I used to do brainwave research (using eeg's): Maybe make some software (R?) to do some FFT (Fast Fourier Transforms) calcs on the brainwaves and compute the "power wave" and have it report percentages or counts of AlphaWaves, BetaWaves, ThetaWaves, etc?

Thanks Jonathan and Joakim (zen-mode) for the software!

Cool!

I did some Neurosky Mindset integration for my zen.el package:
https://github.com/jave/zen-mode

Maybe I can integrate your package and mine, I'll have a look!
