In skullcasting, a current passes through a coil of copper wire that is encased in plastic and held over the subject's head. This coil resembles a paddle or a large spoon and is held in place either by skullcaster or by a mechanical fixation device similar to a microphone pole. As the current passes through the coil it generates a magnetic field that can penetrate the subject's scalp and skull and in turn induce a current in the subject's brain. There is a clicking noise associated with the current passing in the coil, but the effect of the magnetic field and the induction of current in the brain are not painful. However, some discomfort may occur from the contraction of scalp muscles or the activation of nearby nerves.
