# serious card:
would foil actually stop any sort of radio waves from hitting your head?
(Peter_G, Sat 2 May 2009, 23:04, archived)
# apparently so

# Yes
Yes it would.

EDIT: foil would actually stop all radio waves from reaching your head if you wrapped it entirely around your head. However, leaving a space for your neck would mean that there may be some penetration into your brain caused by diffraction, which would (of course) depend on the size of your neck and the wavelength of the radio waves in question.
Safest to wear a total foil suit or live in a Faraday cage if you are truly worried about such things.

# Faraday suit of armour :D

Edit: or just a large veil sort of thing out of weaved metal? Like netting, but metal, and goes all around.

# I think it's gamma rays that can penetrate up to 6cm of lead.
If I'm remembering secondary school science correctly. They're unlikely to control your mind though, just give you cancer.

# it's not that
I was just picturing some sinister scientist giving a status report to his superior:

Scientist: the test data is back
President: well does it work? are we controlling peoples minds?
Scientist: no, not really but most people living in downtown new york have brain cancer

# Evil scientists seem to be rubbish these days.

# Times have changed.
Now we're all just manufacturing new strains of flu, you get more panic that way.

Giant flu strains.

Made of steel.

# It depends on the energy of the gamma rays.
6cm of lead would do a decent job with most things though.

# Well I've commissioned a helmet made exclusively from 6cm-thick lead.
I hope you're right and I hope my neck muscles grow significantly before it arrives.

# They would be the one, not sure about the amount of lead but they're pretty much the most penetrative things next to neutrinos and such.
However they're fairly unlikely to give you cancer given they just pass straight through you.

Unless you're made of lead....then you're fucked.
(Jeru War and Piss, Sat 2 May 2009, 23:17, archived)
# For many reasons.

# It either marginally blocks or massively amplifies depending entirely on the frequency.
It's pretty much useless though given that pretty much all electromagnetic radiation would be able to just pass through your jaw into the brain even if the tin foil could block it anyway.

# Just to be on the safe side,
Enclose the entire head in a Faraday cage.

# Why not try it
make a tinfoil hat and stick your head in a microwave ;)

But in seriousness yes it will reflect radiowaves.
(I helped save b3ta! maiden is filmed before a live studio audience, Sat 2 May 2009, 23:07, archived)
# If you can completely encase yourself in foil, probably.
Although I'd be fairly surprised if they could penetrate your tissue and skull to reach your brain anyway.
(I helped save b3ta! my other username is a porsche , posting shit pictures so you don't have to, Sat 2 May 2009, 23:08, archived)
# and I would be even more surprised if radio waves could reasonably control the brain
disrupt, perhaps - like electro-convulsive therapy, but not actually direct or suppress thoughts, let alone promote new ones.
(I helped save b3ta! The Alchemist king of the needlessly complicated, Sat 2 May 2009, 23:42, archived)
# Agreed.

Although, interestingly my current supervisor specialises in magnetic stimulation and can make peoples limbs move by waving the stimulator over their head.

# hmmm, worrying!
but I guess that shows that, however complex the brain is, it is still an electro-mechanical system, that can be influenced by such forces.

well, I don't know - you might not be able to get very fine-grained control from the outside.

*evil plots*

# It's pretty crude stuff, wave it over the right motion centre and the arm twitches about or lifts up.
I don't think they've found the 'give me money' centre of the brain yet, sadly.

# Only if it completely encloses your head
You might find your neck gets in the way a bit but I'm sure someone wise enough wisdom to wear a tinfoil hat would be able to work around that with some ingenuity and a sharp saw.

# Nah.
The only stupid bit would be assuming assorted radiowaves could have any coherent effect on the random jumble of neurons that make up the brain.
