RE: mark devlin “weaponization of sound”, describing military weapons (lrad, v2k voice-to-skull, etc), cultural manipulation, and involvement of military-intelligence in major bands. ~15:00: “Music has been getting dumber.” — Mark Devlin, Million Song Dataset An mp3 encoding, electronically inverted and then added to its original source file results in a readily perceptible and discernible-quality version … Read more
Summary — This thing was developed and is put-on by individuals and groups seemingly unknown and comparatively hidden from the public .. focusing on a class of music revealed as easily, readily and often polluted with MKULTRA mechanisms of mind-control, social-engineering, subliminals perhaps in terms of rhythms and at least in terms of A440 scale … Read more
A natural starting point for the study of any physical system is linearisation–leading to great simplification is terms of analysis, and also, in the computer age, to design flexibility and algorithmic simplification in simulation. The acoustics of musical instruments is no exception. One question, then, is: how much of the behaviour of a given instrument … Read more
Harmonies and Melodies, assigning source, deciding musicality, based on timbre. https://www.academia.edu/661171/Auditory_streaming_and_the_building_of_timbre Auditory streaming, a concept explored in the field of psychology and neuroscience, refers to the brain’s ability to separate and organize complex auditory information into distinct perceptual streams or channels. This phenomenon allows us to perceive and make sense of the various components … Read more
Abstract “At frequencies above 3 kHz, the tympanic membrane vibrates chaotically. By having many resonances, the eardrum can transmit the broadest possible bandwidth of sound with optimal sensitivity. In essence, the eardrum works best through discord. The eardrum’s success as an instrument of hearing can be directly explained through a combination of its shape, … Read more
In general, with other variables held steady, as the power rating goes up dramatically (10x), the perception of loudness only doubles. 3,000 Watts sounds only “four-times louder” than 30 Watts. It seems unlikely, but measurements and anecdotal evidence have consistently shown it is generally true. People often ask, how does the Milbert BaM-235ab compare, in … Read more
SOURCE Auditory perception of nonlinear distortion is a fascinating area within psychoacoustics, the branch of psychology concerned with the scientific study of hearing. Nonlinear distortion occurs when an audio system (such as speakers, amplifiers, or headphones) introduces harmonics that were not present in the original signal, often as a result of the system being … Read more
Interesting that it is always “sea level” and never “sea curve”. https://www.bitchute.com/video/YH75MZoYtjWB/ Zooming in on the horizon refers to using a camera or visual observation to focus on distant objects or landscapes, particularly those located at or near the horizon line. This action can reveal details and features that may not be visible … Read more

The following article is a result of … Read more
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-89o3vC9bI The esoteric nature of music refers to the belief that music possesses hidden or mystical qualities that transcend its audible or physical manifestations. This concept is rooted in ancient philosophical, spiritual, and mystical traditions and encompasses various aspects of music theory, composition, performance, and perception. Here are some key aspects of the esoteric … Read more
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlUgK3AUlD0 Heathkit was a well-known manufacturer of DIY electronics kits, including various audio equipment such as amplifiers, radios, and speakers. While Heathkit did not produce a specific fuzz pedal, they did offer kits for building guitar effects pedals, including distortion, fuzz, and overdrive units. One of the most notable kits produced by … Read more
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
section 10 of article — Referring to the complex impedance of a loudspeaker, Vance Dickason states [2] that, “Phase angles in excess of 40° at low frequencies, and the same at frequencies about 1-2 kHz, can be considered as a somewhat difficult load for an amplifier to drive.” Also on p.129 of the same book … Read more
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7UZHEHhdek CGPT The Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD) is a type of non-lethal, acoustic hailing device developed for military and law enforcement applications. Its primary function is to broadcast voice messages, alarms, and tones at extremely high volumes over long distances. The LRAD’s ability to focus sound in a highly directional beam allows … Read more
Metal and wire is just metal and wire. The real sonic magic comes from the tubes. GAGA gets all that metal out of their way. An examination into the esoterica shrouding audio output transformers, tubes and “tone”, or the various unpleasant effects of bulky metal on faithful, musical amplification.
