Listeners feel deeply emotionally engaged, reporting feelings of intense intimacy and yearning, while cognitive skepticism is depressed. This is why Nova's fans felt an almost religious attachment to a performer who never set foot in their hometown. Turn off your subwoofers and listen on a cheap transistor radio.

This explains why Listening Night works. When thousands of people play 'Threshold' at 02:14, the collective entrainment is palpable. -- Nadia Nakamura Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of Stanford University Computer Systems Lab. ------------------------------------------------------------ From bgarcia@cern.ch Sun Oct 16 02:17:12 1994 Path: ashpoly!cascade!mxgate!coyoacan!cern!bgarcia From: bgarcia@cern.ch (Bill García) Newsgroups: alt.conspiracy Subject: Re: Question: 14.2 Hz ELF brainwave entrainment & CIA acoustic behavioral testing Message-ID: <1994Oct16.021712.9757@cern.ch> Date: Sun, 16 Oct 1994 02:17:12 GMT References: <1994Oct13.183312.7211@netcom.com> <1994Oct15.040512.3478@stanford.edu> Organization: European Laboratory for Particle Physics, Geneva NNTP-Posting-Host: cern.ch X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Lines: 9 In article <1994Oct15.040512.3478@stanford.edu>, nnakamura@stanford.edu (Nadia Nakamura) writes: > This explains why Listening Night works.
