What conspiracy theories do you believe in? - Put your tinfoil hats on

[Whoopsie Daisy]

I may have said this in this thread, but the 432hz conspiracy theory stuff is interesting, too.

I think it does sound better, personally.

432 does sound better, I agree. I've seen a lot of info about how 432 is better for us and 440 causes chaos in our minds.

Apparently 528 and 963hz are even better, with both reducing cortisol and increasing oxytocin creation.

Yet, supermarkets play pop music, using a 4/4 signature and 128bpm. Both of which increase your susceptibility to suggestion and make you more docile and moronic.

432hz conspiracy theory stuff

440hz is one of several tiny thorns in the side of one's psyche presented by modernity, yes. I'm reminded of Solfeggio frequencies and the idea of each allegedly providing benefit to this or that ailment. They (along with 432hz) all add up to either 3, 6, or 9 using simple gematria, too. There's something to that, though not really conspiracy material, I suppose.

I don't really have a conspiracy angle here beyond what @NoReturn already brought up. It's still quite interesting all the same. I'd recommend just trying it out for yourselves and seeing how you feel. Beware the NEW AGE™ traps if you dare try to research this stuff, though. Holy moly.

I’m glad you approve, alchemy is one of those subjects I rarely have a good reason to discuss without sounding fucking nuts.
It’s good shit though, and as I delve more into the esoteric areas of philosophy the more I get why the knowledge is both incredibly useful and at the same time shrouded in mystery.
Those studies aren’t for everyone, it really depends on how you’re built and what works for you, but if the ears of understanding are open to the lips of wisdom there’s plenty good stuff to learn.

The bell curve meme remains ever-prescient.
New Agers hear "frequencies" and think woo-woo magic vibes in the air like this:

I Youtube some stuff that's apparently 963hz - as you said, I like 963 because of the 3's and Tesla loved the 3's and Derren Brown love's 6's.
Do you know how to tell if the frequency really is 963, or if you can convert 440 signals to 963? Can I convert my music collection to something better? I'm not sure how it works.

It doesn't, really. Musical notes are all different frequencies and real instruments have complex overtone patterns. "440 Hz" means the convention of setting the concert pitch of the A above middle C to 440 Hz. 440 Hz has been one standard since the 19th Century, but it's by no means fixed. These days, many orchestras use 443 Hz as the concert pitch because violins tend to sound a little better (has to do with the scale length and string tension. Similarly, quite a lot of people tend to like the tone of a Stratocaster guitar better tuned half a step lower than normal, no matter the reference). Historically, a variety of lower concert pitches have been used as well. Variety also because tuning forks had variance, but well, as long as the entire orchestra all tuned to the same pitch, it was fine. The concert pitch itself is rather arbitrary, music is all about relative pitches after all.
Given that music, unless it's artificial sine waves, always contains a wide frequency spectrum, there's not really much point in trying to "convert" anything. The frequencies are already in there, anyway. Not that there's really anything magic about 432 Hz to begin with.
Now, if, for some reason, you'd want to "convert" your music collection to 963 Hz or whatever, you can do that by pitch shifting. First you gotta decide what your reference tone should be, for example you could set your A to 481.5 Hz, half the 963 Hz. This means you'd have to pitch up all your music considerably.
Or you pitch it down considerably, to A321, a third. Since you probably don't want to pitch shift too hard, you probably wanna tune down just a little bit, maybe adjust so that the two-lined B, which in A440 is at 987.75 Hz, is at 963 Hz.
In the end, it's music. Look at a spectrogram, you'll see there are a lot of frequencies in there, anyway. Unless you listen to something containing a lot of drone notes at specific frequencies, you won't really get much of a difference.

440hz is just shorthand for "A = 440hz" and affects how everything else on the instrument(s) being played sounds since tuning is a matter of ratios:

Hippy chart, but nice visual.

So to play music, you'd set A to 432hz instead of 440hz and the rest of the notes would follow accordingly. Then play the song like normal:

For converting existing songs, you can either convert it in audacity (forgive the hippy speaking, his tutorial is solid)

Alternatively, you can just play them at 0.981 speed:


Oh but watch out, faggots! 432hz is the frequency of FASCISM!

Don't even try listening! If you like it more that's the fascism particles sneaking into your brain!

Here's the video he mentions at the beginning, it's actually excellent.

It's been pretty much proven that classical music increases intelligence and listening to it has loads of positive effects.

That has been debated for a while, and is very much unclear
There's a direct correlation with appreciation for classical music, and intellect, but it's uncertain if listening to classical music CAUSES a rise in intellect, or rather, if people who happen to have high intellect are drawn to classical music


The reason supermarkets and other public places play so much pop (and recently more hip hop and rap too, which seems to be getting more popular) is likely simply that it's a popular genre, is all

the 432hz conspiracy theory

Elaborate?

I'll have to have a look around the internet and refresh my memory. I saw a program many years ago discussing the use of classical music on plants, on people etc and how they felt calmer with an increase in intellect. It's been a while so I may be misremembering.

The reason supermarkets and other public places play so much pop (and recently more hip hop and rap too, which seems to be getting more popular) is likely simply that it's a popular genre, is all

This is one of those circular logic things though. Pop music isn't popular because more people enjoy it over other genres, but because more people are exposed to it and are told it's popular, and through magic of social pressure then believe it is more popular, so request it more.

I detest pop music with an autistic level of hatred because of how bad it is for people, but that's a sperg for another day. I am fairly sure that 4/4 and 128bpm makes people niggercattle and the shops use it because it makes people more susceptible to sales psychology, which is a fascinating and terrifying subject.

Oh, same here. The theory of using pop/rap/hip hop crap in stores to trick customers into spending more time and money totally fails on me; its so irritating that I end up missing things I intended to buy just to avoid it. Only place it works is the local grocery, but they tend to play shit that is 90s and older, and since food shopping is a chore, it doesn’t bug me as much.

Bed Bath and Beyond, though? You totally deserved your fate. Hearing “Tay-Tay Swiff” screeching at 80 decibels is not going to make me browse around your overpriced crap any longer than necessary.

 

[VisaMallgoth]

There's also the astrology/music aspect. From what I remember, Marsilio Ficino mentioned vocal music, like sacred vocal chants in religious music, is sacred because it brings down energy from the sun, impacting the body in a positive way, or something like that. I believe classical composers like Bach implemented this in some of his works, which would explain a lot.

If so, then that sounds like the same reason high class inner city people in the 1800s temporarily stopped bathing as often (and didn't 'just learned' to bathe like a lot of historical revisionists who want to condemn European culture want us to believe), they thought since they didn't live as close to dirt or farm animals and were now living in clean homes, they didn't need to bathe so much, and instead doused themselves in perfumes and products instead because simply scrubbing with water felt cheap and simple

Most people in history who "didn't take baths" took daily whore baths, or washed themselves out of a basin. It was never an issue of cleanliness but of plumbing. No one wants to carry a hundred gallons of water a long to fill a large tub up regularly if they can help it. More rural people cleaned themselves out of springs or streams, so they could only do it when the temperature was warm enough.

I'm going to listen to Classical Music for a month and see if I get smarter.

We'll settle this my friend!

That is such a good thread.
Everything is vibration. Sound can heal - cats purr and it helps bones heal. Beekeepers live longer, and bee therapy (sitting in a chamber where you’re exposed to bee noise) is a thing in either Slovakia or Slovenia or Serbia or somewhere.
Music and sound has a profound effect in the body, you can entrain sleep spindles in brainwaves for example.

I've been wondering about the purring and how it works. I think it's that the vibration helps settle the bones better.
Not sure about the bee keepers, it might be correlation more than causality (spending more time outside and moving a bit more than the average desk jockey. One would have to compare their life expectancies with other professions of similar low intensity outdoor activity). Hum and vibration can be relaxing, though, so I can see the bee therapy working as well.
