I'm going to be honest: as soon as I agreed to test the headphones with 12 electroencephalography sensors woven into the ear cups, aka the Neurable x Master & Dynamic brain-hacking headphones, I regretted it.
I had nightmares about my Editor-in-Chief secretly accessing my brain-computer interface readings to label me a has-been and a slacker ("The data's all here Scarrott; your brainbox just isn't functioning like that of a journo in her 20s anymore… and we need results here, Scarrott! Young, hungry and relevant!") on two separate nights. Would I be unceremoniously shown the door on account of my erratic levels of possibly peri-menopausal focus?
