Good vibrations

There is geometry in the humming of the strings. There is music in the spacing of the spheres.
~ Pythagoras

Cymatics is the study of visible sound vibration.  The word derives from the Greek 'kyma' meaning 'billow' or 'wave,' to describe the periodic effects that sound and vibration have on matter.

Here's some food for thought from collective-evolution.com on why you might want to convert your music to a different frequency. The post isn't the only place with info about the notion that maybe you could be getting even more out of your music, but it's a good place to start.

From the website:

"... musical frequencies can alter our own vibrational state. Every expression through sound, emotion or thought holds a specific frequency which influences everything around it—much like a single drop of water can create a larger ripple effect in a large body of water.

"With this concept in mind, let us bring our attention to the frequency of the music we listen to. Most music worldwide has been tuned to A=440 Hz since the International Standards Organization (ISO) promoted it in 1953. However, when looking at the vibratory nature of the universe, it’s possible that this pitch is disharmonious with the natural resonance of nature and may generate negative effects on human behaviour and consciousness."

No wonder so many of us are fascinated by electronic music visualizers.  They aren't the same thing as cymatic visual patterns but we intuitively know that it's the right direction.

Here's a tutorial on how to go about changing the frequency of the music you listen to. It gives instructions for using Audacity (free) and Adobe Audition (paid).  Note that if you're using Audacity, you will want to look at a second video to learn how to create lossless audio files.  Note also that you can try Adobe Audition with a free trial.

This is brilliant!  I wish they had made this movie instead of the whole Harry Potter series.

First book signing NOT

A day late and a dollar short. You've no doubt heard the expression before. I just experienced it firsthand -- but I survived.

Mage Music is now available (paperback and Kindle) Order yours today from Amazon!

Here's my story: I ordered some books so I could sell and sign them at Mage Music: the Blog's debut at the library in town. When checked delivery date, it was for the day after the event. No, no, no, that will never do. So I paid extra for expedited shipping that would get the box of books to me the day before.

You can guess without my saying what happened. Ice and snow on the roads. The local UPS man is amazing at what road conditions he'll brave to get the deliveries through on time, but he can't deliver what he never receives at his end.

I contacted UPS. Got one of those "read responses from menu" customer service types. Oh he's so sorry about the delivery. It seems that UPS screwed up somewhere along the line and the package was delayed. Oh so sorry, nothing he can do. Not even tell me where the box is. 

He suggested that I keep tracking the delivery. The tracking page had not updated in 24 hours. Oh so sorry, nothing he could do about that.

To make a not very long story even shorter, I went to the library event last night without a box of books. I borrowed one from a friend to use as an example. My talk went well. No one seemed shocked that I would write about music or Magick.  

I will say, though, that when a few people said "I want to buy one" it was like little stabs to the heart (or ego) telling them they'd have to order the book from Amazon. Because a bird in hand is worth two in the bush, as long as I'm quoting aphorisms.

The good news is that the library system is buying a bunch of copies for the various branches. The other good news is that when I got home last night, the box of books was waiting in my car where I had parked it before catching a ride to town with my friend yesterday afternoon.

It's all good. I will get to autograph books another day.

Jimmy Page Birthday

[PS - The Amazon US page is now live although getting links for it is still a problem.  If you picked up the old link I posted here, it apparently still works.  Otherwise use the link below for Amazon US and cross your fingers.]
