Electrokit
An organ, which takes good care of the blood using electricity. | |
Electrokit is an artificial organ, which takes care of the quality of
my blood, by providing all nutrients, oxygen, cleanup, etc., by
recycling rather than ingesting new matter, so that I live by
consuming electricity like computers do...
I was wondering why the organ cared for blood

An organ with no electricity and doesn't even care about blood

However, it's also baked and WKTE: dialysis machine
+ heart-lung machine + IVs. |
|
|
Rather well warmed over in science-fiction stories; also real life in hospitals for those unable to feed or be fed. |
|
|
It's called Assimilation, and it's Baked and WKTE. |

Electrokit is about full-cycle reuse of nutrients, so that no
matter (except the electrons) would need to leave or
enter the body.... Is it really still WKTE? Maybe, maybe I
didn't watch enough of SciFI,. but then,
probably I should elaborate on how exactly it works. |

//full-cycle reuse of nutrients// ewww. |

[MaxwellBuchanan], I don't mean we have to import a
subsystem of biosphere. Let me think. |
|
|
Patterning volumes of dancing electrons' spins and fields to do any molecular manipulations wanted will be the magic of the future. |

Human organism has a simple I/O. What this requires,
is
an electrochemical process to do O/I, essentially -
convert sweat, tears, pee, poo into soylent and water...
we could start from researching: |
|
|
When a human eats diverse food of all kinds, it's
definitely hard to do (it's probably in the realm of
magic), but supposing that a human is consistently on
soylent, we
could start researching the output of organism, and
compare that with soylent. There would probably be
some consistent pattern. |
|
|
Applications could have wide implications... before the
mind uploading. |

Any civilised human being will die within about 48
hours if deprived of basic nutrients such as foie gras,
a decent port, a good cheese, real chocolate, and
occasional coffees. This is why I am only in
Washington for 2 days. |
|
|
// 48 hours [...] 2 days // . . . so you're just going to stay till you die? |
|
|
Two days, but no nights - just 24 hours. Durrrrr ... |
|
|
This is all well and good, but it does leave a rather large question hanging - |
|
|
I keep reading this as Electrokilt. You'd probably want undies with that one. |
