Writer Shumon Basar wants to create a personal 鈥榯ime-bank鈥�. It would record exactly how much of your day has been lost when your computer freezes or there鈥檚 no phone signal. Then, just before sleep, you would strap your phone onto your head, turning it into a personal virtual reality environment. Ping! Suddenly you are on an idyllic island beach. In real terms, you鈥檒l be there for exactly the time you lost during the day. In neural terms, time will stretch by ten times. One lost, frustrating minute from the day will feel like many rejuvenating minutes on a better side of the planet.
