What is sleep? What happens when we don't get enough of it? Can it be hacked? Now that electronics are cheaper and more portable than ever before, a new generation of hackers have found themselves with the ability to build their own machines to measure and analyze the human body in ways only available to universities and hospitals in the past. This presentation will cover some current theories on the science of sleep and sleep disorders, as well as explain how to build your own home-brew sleep lab and read the data that you'll collect from it.
