Vagus Nerve – one way voice and sound may heal, or at least reveal

The vagus nerve carries an extensive range of signals from digestive system and organs to the brain and vice versa. It is the tenth cranial nerve, extending from its origin in the brainstem through the neck and the thorax down to the abdomen and has the widest distribution in the body. Why is that important? Well, it … Read more

THE BODY MAGNETIC — PHYSICAL SOURCE OF CONSCIOUSNESS, THE PARANORMAL AND SURVIVAL — James E Beichler, The Parapsychological Association Convention 2012

Both human and non-human living organisms have traditionally been viewed and studied as material organisms. Within this context, life has been defined by the biochemical processes that sustain the living organisms, while mind and consciousness have been relegated to functions within the brain. Yet the body is just a complex pattern of energetic material particle … Read more

PLANT SONIFICATION — DATA GARDEN — MIDI SPROUT — using tropical plants to control midi synths in real-time, and getting excellent, soothing music

Beginning the global DIY-Biofeedback movement. PLANT BONGOS http://www.kpkaiser.com/programming/plant  -controlled-robot-bongos/ http://datagarden.org/7940/midisprout/ Using tropical plants to control MIDI synths in real-time involves connecting the plants to biofeedback devices that can interpret the plants’ electrical responses to stimuli as MIDI signals. These signals then control musical synthesizers to create live music, effectively allowing the plants to “perform” based on their … Read more

MIT Institute: ringing-ears/tinnitus 96% linked with cognitive decline — all due to microwave onslaught

  ===   Tinnitus is a condition characterized by the perception of noise or ringing in the ears when no external sound is present. While tinnitus itself is not directly linked to cognitive decline, some studies suggest that there may be associations between tinnitus and certain cognitive impairments, particularly in older adults. Here’s an overview: … Read more

Contribution of active hair-bundle motility to nonlinear amplification in the mammalian cochlea

Abstract   The cochlea’s high sensitivity stems from the active process of outer hair cells, which possess two force-generating mechanisms: active hair-bundle motility elicited by Ca2+ influx and somatic motility mediated by the voltage-sensitive protein prestin. Although interference with prestin has demonstrated a role for somatic motility in the active process, it remains unclear whether … Read more

Psychophysiological reactions to music in male coronary patients and healthy controls

Abstract   “The study supports the following conclusions: (1) music-listening produces significant decreases in the blood pressure (both systolic and diastolic) and heart rate of coronary patients but has no significant effect in healthy controls; (2) music-listening reduces stress, anxiety, and depression, enhances life satisfaction, optimism and hope, and makes life more meaningful in both … Read more

The basis of musical consonance as revealed by congenital amusia

Some combinations of musical notes sound pleasing and are termed “consonant,” but others sound unpleasant and are termed “dissonant.” The distinction between consonance and dissonance plays a central role in Western music, and its origins have posed one of the oldest and most debated problems in perception. In modern times, dissonance has been widely believed … Read more

Simplified Model to Demonstrate the Energy Flow and Formation of Traveling Waves similar to those found in Cochlea

The hearing nerves of vertebrates have their endings on the basilar membrane. The total length of this membrane in man is 35 mm. Its width varies continuously from 0.04 to 0.5 mm., and accordingly the stiffness of the membrane decreases over its length one hundred fold. The whole membrane is imbedded in fluid, and, when … Read more

Long-term music training tunes how the brain temporally binds signals from multiple senses

Practicing a musical instrument is a rich multisensory experience involving the integration of visual, auditory, and tactile inputs with motor responses. This combined psychophysics-fMRI study used the musician’s brain to investigate how sensory-motor experience molds temporal binding of auditory and visual signals. Behaviorally, musicians exhibited a narrower temporal integration window than nonmusicians for music but … Read more

Topographic maps of multisensory attention

Abstract   The intraparietal sulcus (IPS) region is uniquely situated at the intersection of visual, somatosensory, and auditory association cortices, ideally located for processing of multisensory attention. We examined the internal architecture of the IPS region and its connectivity to other regions in the dorsal attention and cinguloinsular networks using maximal connectivity clustering. We show … Read more

Structured Water – EZ Water – Dr Gerald Pollack – H2O – H3 O2 – 4th phase of water

A fourth phase of water has been speculated to exist, supported by impressive and growing evidence.  It is a matrix, a liquid-crystal.  Chemically “identical” but physically different: H3O2 instead of H2O. Hydrophilic surfaces attract an initial atomic layer of water.  Energy, in the form of heat, allows and conforms a second atomic layer, slightly shifted, … Read more

160,000 watts of RUSH — how loud is that, really? Turns out, only about 8 times louder than a 300 watt amp! And only about 16 times louder than a 30 watt amp!

The mention of one-hundred sixty thousand watts, holy cow, that’s huge! actually breaks down this way: Every doubling of power is represented as 3 dB, but it takes 10 dB difference to make something sound (to most humans) “twice as loud” or “twice as quiet”. So 160,000 watts sounds only about twice as loud as … Read more
