Why did Orion's engineers pick 14.2 Hz instead of 10 Hz or 20 Hz?

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

Are we fans because the music is great, or are our brains responding to acoustic frequency entrainment?

I remember crying during her broadcasts for no apparent reason as a 16-year-old. It felt like my chest was vibrating.

Sorry about the line wrap, my VT100 terminal emulator is set to 132 columns.
