Distorted Guitar, Brain Response, and Physiology: A Scientific Analysis
The brain processes distorted guitar as a complex but structured signal. Emotional and physiological outcomes depend primarily on: perception; familiarity; context. Acoustic features (distortion, tuning) influence perception, but do not independently determine biological harm or benefit. Distorted Guitar, Brain Response, and Physiology: A Scientific Analysis Overview This analysis examines three specific domains using established acoustics … Read more
Metalheads Are Happier – Studies
PROMPTS (1) studies showing metalheads are happier than most people, metal shredding heavy metal guitar players; (2) so playing cymatically-water-harmful (and dr emoto) music on guitar is good for the player according to at least 1 published study); any studies showing harm or good for listeners of distorted heavy metal? (3) bio/neuro effets “I’m 64, … Read more
Physics Corrupted at Base Level
This seems like another diabolical, intentional mislead, perhaps to “counter” Protestant-impelled western science. Pierre Marie Robitaille returns to challenge one of the most foundational assumptions in modern physics: that black body radiation is independent of the material producing it. This assumption, introduced by Kirchhoff in 1859 as a mathematical derivation rather than an experimentally verified … Read more
Capacitors on the Curve Tracer
At its core, a curve tracer generates an I-V (Current-Voltage) curve. It does this by actively varying (sweeping) the voltage applied to a component and simultaneously measuring the precise amount of current that flows through it at each voltage step. Sweeping (2-Terminal Devices): For a simple component like a resistor or a diode, the curve … Read more
Retoning Cymbals
Turkish hammering Tall profile makes it ‘jazzy’ Short profile and thin weight = big crash 2-” cymbal (Sabian), began as 2500 grams, lathed down to 1700 grams, add rivets, hammering, buffing Smaller bell = lower volume, more stick definition Each hammerstrike compresses bronze, removes parts of tonal purity Smokier, vintagey, more complex and nuanced
Forget about Anika — This is The Guy, uh, Singled-Handedly Putting Drummers to Shame
One-armed TOM SAWYER! Where there’s a will, there’s an arm. Needs a fitting for attaching tambourine or vibra-slap?
Say I Won’t! Bitch You Dead? Shoots then Kicks
ASTONISHING – UNTIL YOU REALIZE THIS HAS BEEN EXPECTED, PLANNED. Samuel L Jackson lead-starred in the 2014 movie KINGSMAN: SECRET SERVICE whose plot is about murderous rage throughout society being suddenly boosted by greatly increased microwaves from cellphones (and wifi, cordless devices, etc). That movie did not factor in the intense microwave radiation from the … Read more
That Awful Demise of Marshall
Hot-Potato’d from buyer to buyer, Chinese equity firm HONGSHAN last paid $1.1 billion. I live in Milton Keynes and have had drum lessons from him. Amazing strict time drummer. I remember in the late 70’s he had a music shop in Queensway in Bletchley. I also lived across the road from Terry Marshall in an … Read more
