You are exploring aspects of history and tradition from a very different perspective from what I'm presenting on this blog, but that doesn't mean I find your perspective necessarily wrong, misguided or irrelevant.<br /><br />The blog represents only one side of who I am and one part of what interests me. The more subjective/ universal, personal/ impersonal, spritual and mythic aspects are expressed in my creative work -- poetry, installation art, musical composition, etc. And that side of me responds to the sort of thing that most interests you.<br /><br />However, I do think it important to keep these realms separate, because I respect the scientific method and am interested in exploring its possibilties to the fullest. This blog represents the scientific side of my rather complicated personality and the other things I do are from a very different realm. What bothers me is that you seem to think you can combine both, and, with all respect, I'm very skeptical on that score. <br /><br />Nice hearing from you and good luck with your very interesting endeavors.DocGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17359004200002936544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2808406058173173703.post-55891903193901716012010-03-23T10:05:40.152-04:002010-03-23T10:05:40.152-04:00Victor,

I did my masters thesis on music as philosophy of science. The basic premise being that the 1-4-5 music intervals are found worldwide but that in Pythagorean harmonics there is violation of the commutative principle -- so that A x B does not equal B x A (i.e. 2:3 as C to G and G to C as 3:4).<br /><br />O.K. so from that premise I argue that sound actually turns into light -- and this is now proven through ultrasound cavitation. Not only that I then discovered that yang is 2:3 and yin is 3:4 and what the Chinese called the "infinite spiral of fifths" is alchemy.<br /><br />So then I studied with a qigong master Chunyi Lin and tested my model and found it was real -- I went 8 days without food and was not hungry and I created very strong electromagnetic fields and I saw light and did healing, had telepathy, telekinesis, precognition, etc.<br /><br />O.K. so then I realized that the N/um of the Bushmen is the same as the jing of the Taoists, the kundalini of India -- from the three gunas -- and the tummo of Tibet, etc.<br /><br />So the Bushmen Pgymy trance music is the original alchemy -- but it is based on a culture which had regular famines and fasting -- so that doing this practice of what I translated as "sound-current nondualism" does not fit with modern left-brain dominance in civilization.<br /><br />I have a blog on this http://naturalresonancerevolution.blogspot.com with all my research published for free.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2808406058173173703.post-47341402951892220512010-02-25T21:11:51.348-05:002010-02-25T21:11:51.348-05:00Victor,

Maybe, when you are back from your sabbatical, we'll practice walking back from Asia to Africa.<br /><br />All the best and thanks for all your efforts! Without you I wouldn't know a thing about ethnomusicology. I'll keep your VisitCount.com busy.<br /><br />GermanGerman Dziebelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10703679732205862495noreply@blogger.com
