Hi Terry –
Hail Eris my dude! Glad we both made it through the Great Grunge. Looking forward to hearing your ideas and comments. Yes, I’m aware of that Tibetan story. It seems to coincide with two distinct phases of the acoustic technique where the purpose of the sound is to manipulate and use bulk internal charge. #One is to accumulate it, #Two is to activate it. #One tends to be more gentle (primary tones in sine waves) and long in duration, drawing in charges slowly and letting them rest within the dielectric. A larger percent of the charge population may have their fields more contained in the dielectric body due to resting in low energy pockets close to the molecular structures, so the fields are not so visible outside it. Accumulated. #Two tends to be more like white noise random phonons with short rise times, where the jostled charges have a larger population no longer at rest and with localized positions averaging a little further away from the molecular structure within the dielectric, exposing more of their collective fields (now in motion) outside the dielectric body. Activated. Bible story of Jericho: #One, they blew trumpets for some days to collect charge. #Two, a loud shout to activate what they gathered to dislodge the stones and collapse the wall. Modern example of #Two: Pulsed Electro-Acoustics (PEA) for analyzing excess charge clouds within materials, usually dielectric insulation. Initially e-fields can’t be characterized well outside the material with electrostatic detectors. A “shout” from a laser taps the surface creating a shockwave, so phonons ping the molecular structures inside. Resulting charge movements are registered as EM on coil detector arrays where a computer can reveal and map the areas of charge accumulation. Like I said, I’m doing lots of speculating these days. No Macnut trees here either. Turmeric, squash, peppers, tomatoes, papayas, lettuce, bok choy. 😊 * RIck
