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

Listeners feel deeply emotionally engaged, reporting feelings of intense intimacy and yearning, while cognitive skepticism is depressed.
14.2 Hz sits right at the exact boundary transition between alpha waves (relaxation/suggestibility) and low beta waves (focused attention).

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

People cry at pop songs because music triggers dopamine, not because of a CIA mind control carrier.

Netscape 1.1 crashes when loading large preformatted text. Stick to rn or tin!

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