and GOD said (SOUND)....let there be LIGHT............soundcloud.com/ankursharma-bhopal/nasa-recordings-the-sound-ofsoundcloud.com/amkadr/song-of-earth-nasa-space-sound-recordingsSomething to think about:
The Frequency of the Universe is Music
The one thing that connects everything in the Universe is music. Everything and everyone of us is made of energy that is vibrating.
When things vibrate they create sound waves, which we hear as sounds, words, or music.
Music can literally be the Language of the Universe. We can FEEL it. Sound travels in waves and those waves touch and reach every thing in the Universe, including our souls.
To be in touch with this music, you have to Tune in to it’s Frequency. That is why your Heart “Beats” and your Insides are called “Organs”. The Rhythm of ALL is Found in ALL.
Sound affects the way we feel. You know what effect certain pieces of music can have on you, what emotion they can evoke, the way you feel when your favorite song is playing. Well, that is what I mean.
Your body is interacting with the sound waves. And because we are all different, and we all have a different energy patterns, which is our energy signature, we each have a unique interaction with every piece of music we hear.
Remember… Love is the highest frequency of all… It is a combination of ALL frequencies and ALL emotions (which are lower frequencies).
So, when you embody LOVE – which is who you really are – then you are at total Oneness with everything around you and everything around you will FEEL this frequency. This is how you can communicate with plants, animals, and crystals. They all communicate on the vibrational frequency of Love.
We are Ethereal Beings. We have a bio electrical aura known as chi, prana or Ka to the Egyptians.
The idea of Music of the Spheres dates back to the ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras. Today, he is probably most familiar to us because of the right triangle theorem.
But for Pythagoras, principles of triangles were just a single note in the grand musical work that was the cosmos, wherein ratios, harmony, and the heavenly bodies were united voices of the cosmic song.
Musical language appears frequently in astronomers’ descriptions of space.
The exploration of seismic activity in the distant stars, the stars themselves are compared to musical instruments, with characteristic sound wave frequencies.
The more we learn about the universe, the more we seem to rely on musical terminology to describe it.
If the universe is, at some level, music, then it seems only natural that we should study it with musical tools of thinking.
“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.” – Nikola Tesla
website for universal truth - www.369universe.com Light vs Sound
Light and sound play a vital role in human life. Light triggers the sensation of seeing and sound stimulates the hearing. They are both waves. Light falls into the category of electromagnetic waves, while sound is a mechanical wave.
Light
Light is the most familiar form of electromagnetic waves. Light travels as transverse waves; transverse to the direction of propagation. In empty space, where there is no substructure, the speed of light is independent of wave frequency. Light travels through air and vacuum at an speed of around 3 x (10)8 ms-1 . Apart from being a wave, light exhibits properties of particles. Light can be emitted and absorbed as tiny energy packets named “photons”. Intensity, frequency or wavelength, direction and polarization are some of the primary properties of light.
Sound
Sound can be interpreted as mechanical vibrations that travels through all forms of matter : gases, liquids, solids and plasmas. Presence of atoms, molecules or some structure is necessary for sound to travel; it corresponds to the propagation of a disturbance through a medium. Sound is composed of longitudinal waves (also called compression waves), that is, alternate compressions and expansions of matter parallel to the direction of wave. Through gases, liquids and plasmas sound can be transmitted as longitudinal waves, while through solids, it can be transmitted as both longitudinal and transverse waves. It is the properties of sound waves that characterize sound namely frequency, wavelength, amplitude, speed and etc. Speed of sound depends on the ratio of density and pressure of the medium and also the temperature.
Difference between Light and Sound
Light and sound both are waves, but sound requires a material medium to travel, and hence cannot travel in empty space while light can travel through vacuum but not through opaque materials. Both undergo refraction, diffraction and interference. While propagating at the interface of two media, both light and sound suffer loss of speed, change in direction or get absorbed. Frequency or wavelength affects both of them. A change in frequency of sound waves creates an audible sensation ( a difference in pitch) and a change in the frequency of light wave causes a visual sensation (a difference in color). There are several dissimilarities between light and sound. Although both are waves, light exhibits particle nature too. Speed of light in air and empty space is a fundamental constant, whereas speed of sound depends heavily on the properties of the medium. The denser the medium, the greater is the speed of sound. The opposite is true for light. Sound consists of longitudinal waves whereas light consists of transverse waves which give light the ability to be polarized.
In brief:
Light vs. Sound
– Sound is only a wave, whereas light exhibits both wave and particle properties.
– Sound is a longitudinal wave, but light is a transverse wave.
– Sound needs a material medium to travel, light can propagate through vacuum also.
– Light travels much faster than the sound.
Scientists have achieved the speed of sound, but still they are unable to go past the speed of light. Audio-Visual Stimulation used for evil?
You would be surprised by how often we get calls from people thinking that there is someone in their life – their boss, their neighbor, an ex lover – using audio-visual stimulation (AVS) on them with less than kind intentions. For most of them it is a confusion between AVS and “mind control”, which is really not how brainwaves work. One person was convinced that her boss was using the intercom to control her mind. Another was determined to bring down a nearby factory that was emitting mind-controlling sound waves to half the town. Of course, the best we can do in these cases is explain more about AVS and subtly recommend that the caller seek counsel.
However, there ARE non-therapeutic uses for audio or visual stimulation.
This flashlight will make you throw upRecently there was some news about a nausea-inducing flash light being developed for the Department of Homeland Security, called the “LED Incapacitator”. The device uses pulses of light that are constantly changing in duration, color and brightness level. The disorienting effect this produces causes nausea and vomiting.
“There’s one wavelength that gets everybody,” says IOS President Bob Lieberman. “Vlad [IOS top scientist Vladimir Rubtsov] calls it ‘the evil color.'”
Sound can also be used to produce similar effects. In 2005, a cruise ship warded off pirates off the coast of Africa using a sonic weapon called the LRAD, or Long Range Acoustic Device, which sends high energy beams of acoustic wrath down upon its target.
In 2006, a device called the “Mosquito” was used to disperse a group of rowdy youngsters from gathering near a theater in Swindon, England. The device emits extremely annoying high frequency sound that is usually audible only to people under the age of 25 (younger people typically have higher thresholds for hearing). This is an effective-sounding concept for crowd control, but I have also read about it being used by grumpy old men who don’t want those pesky youngsters stomping on their lawn or skating on the sidewalk, causing younger neighbors nearby to have to endure this acoustic deterrent on a constant basis.
Take a listen to what the Mosquito sounds like here. Can you hear it?
Brown note:
Supposedly, there is even a frequency of tone or pulse that can cause diarrhea (or something very similar), amusingly dubbed the “brown note“. However, it is most likely a myth. The idea was explored on MythBusters a few years ago, and they could not find a way to reproduce the effect.
Not to be confused with Brown noise.
The brown note is a hypothetical infrasonic frequency that would cause humans to lose control of their bowels due to resonance. Attempts to demonstrate the existence of a "brown note" using sound waves transmitted through air have failed.
The name is a metonym for the common color of human feces. Frequencies supposedly involved are between 5 and 9 Hz, which is below the lower frequency limit of human hearing. High power sound waves below 20 Hz are felt in the body, not heard by the ear as sound.
Physiological effects of low frequency vibration
Jürgen Altmann of the Dortmund University of Technology, an expert on sonic weapons, has said that there is no reliable evidence for nausea and vomiting caused by infrasound.
High volume levels at concerts from subwoofer arrays have been cited as causing lung collapse in individuals who are very close to the subwoofers, especially for smokers who are particularly tall and thin.
In September 2009, London student Tom Reid died of sudden arrhythmic death syndrome (SADS) after complaining that "loud bass notes" were "getting to his heart". The inquest recorded a verdict of natural causes, although some experts commented that the bass could have acted as a trigger

SOUND ALCHEMY Documentary - Hermetic Sound Science - Egyptian Roots of Modern Sound Healing
Published on May 15, 2017 Learn to chant down Babylon in harmony with Ani Williams from Songaia Sound Medecine. Check the website for further material www.aniwilliams.com/Sonic Geometry: The Language of Frequency and Form
Throughout history, numerous clues and hints regarding geometry and frequency have been staring at us, calling to us, and waiting for us to put them into place like pieces of a giant puzzle. Here at the dawn of a new age, this sonic-geometric puzzle is finally nearing completion, revealing the building blocks of a language based on energy, frequency, and form. How will we use it? With whom will we be communicating? Now that we know the basics of this new language, maybe we are ready to begin the conversation.... again?
(This Video has been cut for youtube requirements, please stay tuned for a full 11:11 minute version of the sonic tones! Thank you for watching...)Sonic Geometry 2 : Communicating with the Universe in 432hz Published on Sep 23, 2016 440hz vs 432 hz - Though it defies all logical explanation, it appears that our ancient ancestors living in Sumeria 6,000 years ago were “gifted” by “sky-visitors” with certain information that could only be verified by present-day technology. #432Hz
What is this information? It is the explanation of how frequency reveals mechanical movements found throughout the universe, how certain harmonics contain keys and codes to unlock the very process of creation, and how one particular math system reveals the very matrix of existence. Is this information new? No it is not. It has been laying dormant in our geometry, in our system of keeping time, in the way we measure our world, and in certain symbols we find all around us but have lost the connection to their true meaning.

Interesting Facts About Vibration, Sound, And MusicVibration-Sound-Music-main-4-postby Becky Waters
““Music has charms to soothe the savage breast; To soften rocks, or bend a knotted oak.” – William Congreve, English dramatist (1637–1708)
Everything is vibrational energy – each atom – a nucleus surrounded by electrons, revolve at the speed of 600 miles per second.
Motion creates frequency and frequency creates sound.
Whether we hear it or not, everything has a sound, a vibration all it’s own.
Sound waves are everywhere.
Resonance is the frequency at which an object most naturally vibrates.
If you have two tuning forks made to vibrate at 440 hertz (cycles per second) and strike one of them, the other one will spontaneously vibrate or sing along also.
This sympathetic vibration is a natural ability and our bodies vibrate to frequencies imposed from another source.
We are vibrational energy with our own vibrational frequency.
We live in a state of vibration from which sound derives and on which sound has profound influences.
When you are around someone with a vibrational rate similar to your own, you feel comfortable and familiar – “good vibes”. When you are around someone’s energy field that is totally different from yours, you instinctively feel that too – “bad vibes”.
The ear has been referred to as “the Rome of the body” because all cranial nerves lead there.
The 10th cranial nerve is the vagus (wondering or vagabond) nerve because it communicates to the rest of the body. This means that sound we here actually is resonating our entire body.
Soldiers, whose combined rhythmic marching matched the natural frequency of a footbridge in Manchester, England, in 1831, and caused it to fall apart – the principle of resonance in action.
Pancreatic and kidney stones are dissolved with acoustic waves – another use of the resonance principle – two things vibrating at the same rate.
Healthy cells resonate; unhealthy cells don’t.
Sound – vibration – is the lead character in all creation myths. All cultures and religions speak of sound as the divine principle.
The ancient Chinese dynasties understood the power within music to be a free energy, which man could use or misuse according to his own free will. So only the “correct” music could be played.
Ancient civilizations based their societies on their knowledge that music could influence a person’s thoughts, emotions, health, and actions. A young person’s training included listening to specific types of music depending on the occupation they were to fulfill as adults.
Music is a chain of vibration: all atomic matter vibrates – frequency is the speed at which matter vibrates – the frequency of vibration creates sound (sometimes inaudible) – sounds can be molded into music
Music can help generate the body’s automatic relaxation response – releasing endorphins that help us relax.
Listening to a favorite piece of music that makes you happy will tend to enhance the production of endorphins which contribute to feelings of wellness.
Beta-endorphins associated with “runner’s high” are also released when listening to pleasurable music.
Music designed as “entertainment” is too fast for the body to get into a relaxed state. This includes most pop and rock music as well as some classical music.
Music with 60-70 beats per minute allows the body to relax. Music of this tempo most closely matches a resting heart rate.
The body entrains itself to the rhythms of music. The rate of brain waves, breathing, or heart rate, temporarily matches the pulse of the music we listen to.
We respond faster to sound than to sight or touch.
Fast, rhythmic music can spur the body’s fight or flight response.
If the brain doesn’t resonate with a rhythm, neither will the breath or heart rate.
Rhythm affects the body in two ways: internal-to-internal – our pulse systems naturally synchronize with each other. The heart rate entrains, or locks in, with the breath rate; external-to-internal – our brain waves can be entrained to musical rhythms. Alter one pulse with music (such as brain waves), and the other major pulses (heart and breath) will follow.
In other words, Music alters our nervous system.
Rhythms of breath and blood flow provide the womb sounds with which a mother and unborn child bond and the baby forms.
The ear is the first fully functioning sensory organ in the fetus; it begins charging the brain – thereby growing the brain – by week eighteen in utero.
We not only hear with our ears, we hear through bone conduction as well – meaning, we hear with the whole body.
The conscious use of rhythm can alter major body pulses, allowing us to be in states most conducive to specific activities. Rhythm is a noninvasive way to wind up or lay back. If you feel out of sync, rhythm can help you find your center and begin again.
Hearing is the last sense to shut down when we die.

Music and Vibration
November 27, 2013
Flickr-rock band-nattuGregg Prescott, M.S., In5D Guest Waking Times
How does music affect your vibration? Does hard rock or rap lower ones vibration?
Music is sound and sound is vibration which ultimately boils down to geometry and math. Look no further than the study of cymatics to see what sound does to vibration.
Many people will idolize there favorite musicians, which internally says, “I will worship you instead of myself”. By doing so, you have already lowered your vibration.
The highest vibrational music within this genre is Ambient or New Age music, which is perfect for attaining a relaxed feeling or meditative state but do you really want to listen to this genre every day and all the time?
Many people question how music will affect their personal vibration, especially if their choice of music is hard rock or rap.
Hard rock and rap will subliminally affect each person’s auric field differently. Some people become very aggressive when listening to either genre while other people will get an overall good feeling, despite any negativity in the lyrics.
I listen to almost all genres of music and after playing lead and rhythm guitar in several hard rock bands, I can attest that hard rock does not make me any more or less aggressive. For example, I can listen to Van Halen‘s “Ain’t Talkin Bout Love” or Night Ranger‘s “Don’t Tell Me You Love Me” and feel absolutely awesome afterwards without any negative feelings about “love”.
Rap, however, has become much more degrading and violent compared to the old school rap, such as Run DMC, LL Cool J or the Beastie Boys.
Additionally, much of today’s gangsta rap trashes any conception of the Divine Feminine by degrading women as “ho’s” while belittling one another by using the “N” word.
As a musician, I listen more to the melody of the music and lyrics than the actual meaning and intent behind the lyrics. Other people may be more focused on the lyrics than the music. We do not all listen to music the same way as one another nor do we all interpret music the same way.
In an episode of Myth Busters, talking nicely or nasty made no difference yet produced larger biomasses and bigger yields than the control groups. In other words, you could swear and yell at the plants or talk nicely to them and they still thrived better than the control group.
The biggest and most productive plants were grown while constantly blaring heavy metal music.
Learn how to enter parallel worlds of consciousness
Also see: The Consciousness of Water and Plants
Conversely, a study done in the 1970’s by Dorothy Retallack showed that plants thrived on classical music but became sickly or died when listening to hard rock.
So, we have two different studies with two completely results.
The bottom line is how any particular genre of music makes YOU feel, regardless of what any other study says. If you feel really good while listening to it, despite what other people may think and what other studies have proven, then that music is perfect for YOU and YOUR vibration.
Happy listening!

Optogenetics: Principles and approaches Optogenetics (from Greek optikós, meaning 'seen, visible') is a biological technique which involves the use of light to control cells in living tissue, typically neurons, that have been genetically modified to express light-sensitive ion channels. It is a neuromodulation method that uses a combination of techniques from optics and genetics to control and monitor the activities of individual neurons in living tissue—even within freely-moving animals—and to precisely measure these manipulation effects in real-time. The key reagents used in optogenetics are light-sensitive proteins. Neuronal control is achieved using optogenetic actuators like channelrhodopsin, halorhodopsin, and archaerhodopsin, while optical recording of neuronal activities can be made with the help of optogenetic sensors for calcium (GCaMP), vesicular release (synapto-pHluorin), neurotransmitter (GluSnFRs), or membrane voltage (arc lightning, ASAP1). Control (or recording) of activity is restricted to genetically defined neurons and performed in a spatiotemporal-specific manner by light.
In 2010, optogenetics was chosen as the "Method of the Year" across all fields of science and engineering by the interdisciplinary research journal Nature Methods. At the same time, optogenetics was highlighted in the article on "Breakthroughs of the Decade" in the academic research journal Science. These journals also referenced recent public-access general-interest video Method of the year video and textual SciAm summaries of optogenetics.www.scientificamerican.com/article/optogenetics-controlling/

Shepard Tone
A Shepard tone, named after Roger Shepard, is a sound consisting of a superposition of sine waves separated by octaves. When played with the bass pitch of the tone moving upward or downward, it is referred to as the Shepard scale. This creates the auditory illusion of a tone that continually ascends or descends in pitch, yet which ultimately seems to get no higher or lower.

I just lost another young friend to brain cancer. His job practically required he have a cell phone attached to his ear. RIP Steve
Resonance Beings of Frequency documentary film
Published on Jan 14, 2013 A well-researched, well-made, deeply disturbing documentary.
Resonance: Beings of Frequency is the first documentary to investigate the actual mechanisms by which mobile phone technology can cause cancer. The film takes a deeper look at how humanity is reacting to the most profound environmental change the planet has ever seen. Two billion years ago life first appeared on earth, a planet bathed in a natural electromagnetic frequency. As life slowly evolved from simple to complex organisms, it did so surrounded by this frequency, forming a harmonic relationship with it, a relationship that science is just beginning to comprehend.
New research is showing that exposure to this frequency is vital to human beings. It controls our mental and physical health, it synchronizes our circadian rhythms, it aids our immune system, and it improves our overall sense of well-being. Not only are we surrounded by natural frequencies, our bodies are suffused with them. Our cells communicate using electromagnetic frequencies. Our brain emits a constant stream of frequencies and our DNA delivers instructions using frequency waves. Without them, we could not exist.
This delicate balance has taken billions of years to perfect. But over the last two or three decades this harmony has been disturbed, and dramatically so. Mankind has saturated itself in an ocean of artificial frequencies. They are all around us, filling the air and overwhelming the earth’s natural resonance. To the naked eye our world appears the same. But at the cellular level it is the most dramatic change that life on earth has ever endured, and we are only now beginning to understand it.

Schumann Resonance alchemyandenergy.com/space_clearing__holographic_repatterning/schumann_resonanceSchumann Resonance Revealed - Who Was Schumann?What you need to know about the SCHUMANN RESONANCE and changes in CONSCIOUSNESS
What is the Schumann Resonance? How does it effect human consciousness? What do recent spikes in the Schumann resonance mean for humanity?Listen to this while staring at the visual in my first post. It's a trip. No drugs necessary.By tuning into the Schumann Resonance, the body benefits from this healing frequency and can more effectively rebuild and repair itself.
Binaural beat brainwave entrainment technology can induce a specific brainwave state in the listener's brain. These artificially induced changes in the brainwave state will quickly and reliably generate a temporary change in the consciousness of the listener.
Since the inherent frequency of the earth is 7.8Hz (7-13 Hz) a person's brain waves resonate with that frequency and it has been shown in scientific studies to be an essential requirement for physical and psychological health. Since there are so many extraneous ELF (extremely low frequency) frequencies in the earth's atmosphere at this time, these frequencies can cause a drowning out of the natural Schumann Resonance. The Schumann Resonance™ CD facilitates the natural resonance of the Schumann Resonance in the body and helps to recover autonomic nerve balance, remove stress, and intensify concentration .
Most of us are totally unaware of the fact that we are all living on a planet that naturally emits the frequency of Love. All we have to do is tune in and healing will take effect. These effects are measurable. Amazingly, after only a few minutes of listening to the Schumann Resonance, not only will the bioenergetic field of the body become totally balanced, but also the size and strength of this field can be tripled, counteracting the effects of electromagnetic pollution. Tripling the field on a daily basis will also slow down the ageing process, as the ageing body has a steadily diminishing electromagnetic field or aura, rather like a battery running down.

9 SOUNDS YOU'VE NEVER HEARD BEFORE

Post by the Scribe on Apr 6, 2020 0:33:29 GMT
I blame Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show for my tinitus. My ears have been ringing ever since 1973. They had no reason to blast those speakers like they did. Fortunately for me I do not let it bother me. It drives others crazy. Tinnitus is the hearing of sound when no external sound is present. While often described as a ringing, it may also sound like a clicking, hiss or roaring. Rarely, unclear voices or music are heard. The sound may be soft or loud, low pitched or high pitched and appear to be coming from one ear or both. Most of the time, it comes on gradually. In some people, the sound causes depression or anxiety and can interfere with concentration.
Tinnitus is not a disease but a symptom that can result from a number of underlying causes. One of the most common causes is noise-induced hearing loss. Other causes include ear infections, disease of the heart or blood vessels, Ménière's disease, brain tumors, emotional stress, exposure to certain medications, a previous head injury, and earwax. It is more common in those with depression.
The diagnosis of tinnitus is usually based on the person's description. A number of questionnaires exist that may help to assess how much tinnitus is interfering with a person's life. The diagnosis is commonly supported by an audiogram and a neurological examination. If certain problems are found, medical imaging, such as with MRI, may be performed. Other tests are suitable when tinnitus occurs with the same rhythm as the heartbeat. Rarely, the sound may be heard by someone else using a stethoscope, in which case it is known as objective tinnitus. Spontaneous otoacoustic emissions, which are sounds produced normally by the inner ear, may also occasionally result in tinnitus.
Prevention involves avoiding loud noise. If there is an underlying cause, treating it may lead to improvements. Otherwise, typically, management involves talk therapy. Sound generators or hearing aids may help some. As of 2013, there were no effective medications. It is common, affecting about 10–15% of people. Most, however, tolerate it well, and it is a significant problem in only 1–2% of people. The word tinnitus is from the Latin tinnīre which means "to ring."Find Your Tinnitus Tonewww.audionotch.com/app/tune/(mine is about 10 khz)

Can A River Play The Violin? It Can With This Researcher's Help By Luke Runyon • Jul 25, 2018
Flaming Gorge reservoir in Wyoming and Utah impounds the Green River, a main tributary of the Colorado.
Stand near a river and you’ll hear a symphony of sounds: birds chirping, frogs croaking and water flowing. But what would it sound like if the stream itself could be transformed into classical music?
David Merritt, a Colorado-based researcher and musician, is helping answer that question by turning river data into music to hear how we’ve changed rivers throughout the West.
Listen: cpa.ds.npr.org/kunc/audio/2018/07/lr_musicalrivers_web.mp3 Luke Runyon reports on a researcher who's turning data into music.
By day Merritt is a riparian ecologist for the U.S. Forest Service in Fort Collins. By night, he’s a musician. One evening, off the clock from his Forest Service duties, he was messing around with audio files in his basement recording studio.
At the time, he was frustrated. He knows rivers are important, but making other people care is hard. If people could feel the seasonal peaks and valleys in river flow they might be more likely to appreciate their benefits, he thought.
Using his background in both flow data and recording music, Merritt pulled up the annual average flow figures for his favorite river -- the Yampa in northwest Colorado -- and funneled it through a program that turns numbers into digital music. He wrote a piece of code to turn the data into notes that a computer can play using Musical Instrument Digital Interface, or MIDI.
“I absolutely got chills as I listened to the flood of 1984 in church organ,” Merritt says.
He called his wife down. Had her put on the headphones and hit play.
cpa.ds.npr.org/kunc/audio/2018/07/YampaRiver1984Organ.mp3 Listen to the Yampa River during a 1984 flood played by an organ.
The high notes represent the river’s seasonal peak. Encumbered by only a handful of dams on its main channel, the Yampa's seasonal flow is dynamic, fed by snowmelt each spring. The year Merritt first played, 1984, was a record wet year in the Colorado River Basin.
The Yampa River flows through northwest Colorado to join the Green River near the Colorado-Utah border.

Realizing he’d stumbled on a whole new way of experiencing data, Merritt started auditioning other rivers and trying out different instruments. When the rivers are low, the music is rhythmic and steady.
“I hear a heartbeat of violas and violins and piccolos and cellos,” he says. “And as a monsoon or a snowmelt hydrograph begins to form. You can hear other instruments picking up and you can hear the rate of the playing of these instruments speed up and vary.”
We’ve been measuring the flow of some Western rivers for more than a century, which Merritt says gives us the opportunity to hear how we’ve changed them. Take a river like the Green, which starts in Wyoming and snakes through Utah and Colorado. In 1962, the Green didn’t have any large dams. Its seasonal flow hit lots of highs and lows.
cpa.ds.npr.org/kunc/audio/2018/07/Green1962PreDam.mp3 Listen to the Green River in 1962 as orchestral music.
But just a few years later both the Fontenelle and Flaming Gorge dams were completed on the Green. Here’s how it sounded after that:
Listen cpa.ds.npr.org/kunc/audio/2018/07/Green1965PostDam.mp3 Listen to the Green River in 1965, after the closure of Flaming Gorge Dam.
Flaming Gorge Dam is a key part of the Colorado River Storage Project. It allowed states in the Upper Basin of the Colorado River to hold on to more water, but it also dramatically changed ecosystems along the Green. Instead of the river reaching for the high notes each spring, the dam leveled it out. Flows corresponded more with demands for hydropower than with the needs of insects, birds and fish.
“This is what it sounds like under regulated conditions,” Merritt says. “It's undeniably different and it's undeniably had an effect on the organisms in those systems. And this is a way for you to hear it and and hopefully to feel it.”
For millennia rivers in the West surged seasonally, either from snowmelt or monsoon rains. The animal and plant life that call rivers home have evolved to be in sync with that rhythm.
“If we are aware of the consequences of damming and diverting a vast majority of the streams in the West then I think society could rally behind protecting one or two,” Merritt says.
Dave Merritt says he’s not naive to the fact that dams are part of what make life in the West possible. But now we have the ability to manage our existing dams better.
“Maintaining those vital components of flow regime that support those organisms is something that we can deliberately do and and probably do pretty well,” he says. “We would as a society benefit from being aware of that: Restoring some of the symphonic sounds of these rivers.”
Few rivers in the West are as free-flowing as the Yampa. Merritt says when you hear the river turned into music, it’s easier to recognize its unique character.
“It's something that we ought to treasure and protect like a piece of art or like a great symphony.”

Editor's note 7/26/18 1:07 p.m.: An earlier version of this story said the Yampa River was "one of the few rivers left in the West without significant dams or diversions on its main channel." The Yampa has one dam that forms Stagecoach Reservoir, and several dams on the Bear River, a key tributary near the river's headwaters.

Music Has Been Weaponized Since the 1940's ~ 432 hz to 440 hz 440 Hz Music – Conspiracy To Detune Us From Natural 432 HzMost music worldwide has been tuned to 440 hertz since the International Standards Organization (ISO) endorsed it in 1953. The recent rediscoveries of the vibratory / oscillatory nature of the universe indicate that this contemporary international concert pitch standard may generate an unhealthy effect or anti-social behavior in the consciousness of human beings.
A=432 Hz, known as Verdi’s ‘A’ is an alternative tuning that is mathematically consistent with the universe. Music based on 432 Hz transmits beneficial healing energy, because it is a pure tone of math fundamental to nature.
There is a theory that the change from 432 Hz to 440 Hz was dictated by Nazi propaganda minister, Joseph Goebbels. He used it to make people think and feel a certain manner, and to make them a prisoner of a certain consciousness. Then around 1940 the United States introduced 440 Hz worldwide, and finally in 1953 it became the ISO 16-standard.
What is 440 Hz? 440 Hz is the unnatural standard tuning frequency, removed from the symmetry of sacred vibrations and overtones that has declared war on the subconscious mind of Western Man.
In a paper entitled ‘Musical Cult Control’, Dr. Leonard Horowitz writes: “The music industry features this imposed frequency that is ‘herding’ populations into greater aggression, psycho social agitation, and emotional distress predisposing people to physical illness.”
You just have to go out in the street and take a look around. What do you see? School kids, young adults on their way to work, a woman pushing her baby in a pram, a man walking his dog – and what do they all have in common? iPods or MP3 Players! Ingenious, isn’t it?
“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.” -Nikola Tesla. The powers that be are successfully lowering the vibrations of not only the young generation but the rest of us as well. These destructive frequencies entrain the thoughts towards disruption, disharmony and disunity. Additionally, they also stimulate the controlling organ of the body – the brain – into disharmonious resonance, which ultimately creates disease and war. The difference between 432 Hz and 440 Hz. Hear it, understand it.
“This unnatural standard tuning frequency (440 Hz), removed from the symmetry of sacred vibrations and overtones, has declared war on the subconscious mind of Western Man.” -L. C. Vincent. The Hidden Power of Universal Frequency and Vibration Frequency and vibration hold a critically important yet hidden power to affect our lives, our health, our society and our world. The science of Cymatics (meaning the study of visible sound and vibration) proves that frequency and vibration are the master keys and organizational foundation for the creation of all matter and life on this planet. When sound waves move through a physical medium (sand, air, water, etc.) the frequency of the waves has a direct effect upon the structures which are created by the sound waves as they pass through that particular medium.

“If one should desire to know whether a kingdom is well governed, if its morals are good or bad, the quality of its music will furnish the answer.” -Confucius.

Music has a hidden power to affect our minds, our bodies, our thoughts, and our society. When that music is based upon a tuning standard purposely removed from the natural harmonics found in nature, the end result may be the psychic poisoning of the mass mind of humanity.
As Kymatica Documentary says, the rediscovered knowledge of the science of sound shows that sound is something more than mere vibratory signals, not only does sound interact with life but it sustains and develops it. It acts as a conduit of conscious intent between people, societies and entire civilizations.
