Trip out for just the price of 2 Ping Pong balls!<br>
Or an interesting past time when you got too much time on
your hands, it <br>
beats watching TV anyways.<br>
<br>
Ganzfeld means "whole field" in the german language and is a
method to<br>
realize a state of sensoral deprevation. It is acquired by
having a <br>
complete uniform visual field before the eyes and a uniform
constant <br>
sound playing on the background for a certain time.<br>
It is most often done with 2 ping pong ball halves that
cover the eyes,<br>
a red light and a white noise sound source.<br>
<br>
What happens in the Ganzfeld experiment?<br>
If you glare into a featureless field of vision, a total
emptyness,<br>
your brain just starts to make up stuff after a while. The
higher visual<br>
cortex tries to search for something that isn't there and
will, simply said, <br>
shut off your vision.<br>
The only thing left to interpetate for the higher visual
cortex is NEURONAL<br>
NOISE, scattered random electric fluctuations occuring in
the neural pathways. <br>
This usually occurs below the treshold of neuro action
potential (Action <br>
Potential is like the minimum voltage that has to occur
across the nerve<br>
fibre for some activity to occur). This is what apparently
creates<br>
hallucinations.</font></small></font><font color="#33ff33"><small><font
face="Courier"><big><font color="#33ff33"><small><font
face="Courier"><br>
<br>
The Ganzfeld effect has been known since the dawn of
man, it is speculated<br>
by some that the images of prehistoric cave
paintings were depictions of <br>
ganzfeld induced hallucinations due to sensory
deprevation deep inside the<br>
caves.<br>
<br>
Somewhere in the 1974 Charles Honorton was
researching extra sensortial<br>
powers and dreams at the Maimonides Medical Centre
in New York.<br>
In his experiments Test subjects were exposed to the
Ganzfeld method <br>
to get them into a state of sensory deprevation. As
there was no information<br>
to be processed for the brain it was believed that
they could use their entire <br>
mental power on psychokinesis. The test subjects in
the ganzfeld state would<br>
have to do certain telephatic and psychokinetic
experiments.<br>
Though Honorton claimed to have found proof for the
existence of PSI in these<br>
experiments it has never been repeated by any other
studies and we should<br>
take it with a littlebit of scepticism. <br>
<br>
PSI powers or not,you can still trip out there is no
scientific debate about<br>
that.<br>
</font></small></font></big><br>
What you need:<br>
<br>
- 2 Ping pong balls (if there is no logo on it one will do
too)<br>
<br>
- A white noise source (synthesizer, meditation sleep noise
on youtube even<br>
a radio will do tuned on a calm unfluctuating
frequency of white noise)<br>
<br>
- A pillow and fitness/yoga mat, a bed or couch will do fine
too.<br>
A red light source, you can put a red transparent
plastic sheet before a <br>
lamp or use a bright red screen.<br>
<br>
- 4 Pieces of tape to attach the pingpong balls to your eyes
on the sides<br>
<br>
Cut the ping pong balls in half, make sure you end up with 2
halves withouth any <br>
pingpong ball company logo on it. Use a sharp knife or
something, don't cut<br>
your fingers off.<br>

<br>
Put the two pingpong ball halves over your eyes, use some
tape on the<br>
sides so they stay put. Do not cover the ping pong balls
with tape, its<br>
vital the field of vision has only the white of the ping
pong ball.<br>
<br>
Lie down in a darkened room with only a red light source and
nothing else.<br>
Play the white noise in the background (You can also use
headphones, it might<br>
even be more effective). Keep your eyes open. After a while
(15 - 20 minutes) <br>
you will start to trip out.<br>

Experiment with different light colors and see what happens<br>
Try different noise sources, pink noise or seashore
recordings etc.<br>
Try Stroboscopic lights with different frequencies.<br>
Try telephatic experiments, send information through PSI to
other people,<br>
use your brain in strange ways.<br>

Get that warm springey space in your music with an analog
spring reverb<br>
effect for 5$ or less.<br>
<br>
What is a SPRING REVERB? <br>
Before they had digital Effects processors, reverb was often
made with <br>
a spring or metallic plate through which the sound was
transduced via a<br>
a transmitting audio device and a recieving one. Like a
speaker attached<br>
to the spring (transmitting) and a microphone or piezo
element on the <br>
other, recieving end of the spring.<br>
<br>
It gives a very warm dub twangy surf 1950s space si-fi /
academic acoustic<br>
music feel to your sounds.<br>
The cool thing is that if you hit the spring or the box
around it it will <br>
make a huge psychedelic thunder sound. <br>
<br>
What you need:<br>
<br>
- Some kind of spring (A toy slinky, "Stair-spring" make
sure its a metal one,<br>
or those springs inside cheap toy echo microphones)<br>
<br>
- a Pair of crappy powered PC speakers, the ones everyone
used like 10 + years <br>
ago, Thrust, Logitech, US Blaster etc. You probably
have one lying around in <br>
the attic or cellar etc. Else, the thriftstore is your
friend, they will have<br>
ZILLIONS for a few bucks. Just a normal 2 piece stereo
will do you won't need<br>
any bass boost. Prefereably use ones with low voltage
(9, 12 etc,) adapters<br>
so you dont electrocute yourself.<br>
<br>
- wires<br>
<br>
- Two wooden satay skewers<br>
<br>
- jack plug in and outputs<br>
<br>
- A box to conceal everything (wine crate for example)<br>
<br>
- Tape and glue (preferably hot glue)<br>
<br>
- Screws<br>

<br>
(schematic by prof.elektrovolt)<br>
<br>
Attach the spring in the box with the screws so it hangs
horizontally in the<br>
air.<br>
attach one end of the skewer to the speaker cone membrane
with some hot glue<br>
or gummy substance and the other end on one side of the
spring, also with some<br>
glue or gummy stuff...i guess you can use tape too.<br>
Do the same for the other end of the spring for the
recieving audio output<br>
speaker. For better sound quality, ,make sure you put the
audio output signal <br>
of this machine in an instrument or mic input.<br>
<br>
Make sure the audio input speaker is powered or use an
amplifier before it.<br>
The other recieving speaker should not be powered, its just
the cone.<br>
<br>
If you are competent you can probably make it so you can
tighten the springs<br>
with the screws to alter the spring reverb resonance/reverb
time.<br>
Or add some other cool stuff like flashing lights, a cover
with foam rubber<br>
very close to the spring, which you can slide open to get
different acoustic<br>
varieties of the spring reverb sound (in theory I guess).
Use other types<br>
of metal for the spring, or even submerge the spring in oil
(not water!!) for<br>
a really dark thunderous reverb!<br>

reputation, vinyl fusspots sniff at them<br>
but is this really a justified case????</font><br>
</font><br>
<font color="ddddff">Hans Snijboon CDR enthiousiast sais:</font><br>
<br>
<font color="#aaaaff">- Superior Sound Quality: 16 bit
digital audio hi-fi.<br>
<br>
- More space! a CDR can hold up to 80 minutes of hi-fi
audio you would need<br>
at least 3 LPs for the same amount of music in decent
audio quality.<br>
<br>
- No standing up to flip the record or stressing about
that you will have to do<br>
that while your relaxing. Let the CD player do all the
work while you relax,<br>
after all you paid for the music why so much hard work???<br>
<br>
-They make great artwork objects, relatively large
circular surface on the cdr<br>
itself and nice rectangular space on its cover, espeically
if you use mini-LP<br>
style transparent plastic sleeves instead of the stupid
old school style<br>
plastic CD cases.<br>
<br>
- You can produce and press your own CDR releases for next
to nothing<br>
financially and without any fuzz or BUMA/goverment
intervention.<br>
<br>
- Produced fast, in theory, you can make a release in one
day or less.<br>
No need to wait 4 months for the record pressing plant
because they <br>
are too busy pressing 40.000 LPs of Geriatric Pink Floid
muzak or Justin<br>
Bieber picture discs.<br>
<br>
- You can play them in car stereos or portable CD players.
<br>
<br>
- They are portable and lightweight, accessable to almost
everyone, cheap<br>
to mail.<br>
<br>
- CDRs are fun things! They are shiney, can reflect
rainbows when a lightbeam<br>
hits it, make great coasters, can be used as an emergency
make-up mirror...<br>
the possibilities are endless!<br>
<br>
So next time you diss the CDR format think again!</font><br>

By Emiel Emmereend<br>
<br>
DJ Overdose, also known as Jeroen Warmenhoven, is one of
the Dutch West<br>
coast's most prolific electro producers. He's been active
since the early <br>
90s, participating in many different groups (Get It Boyz,
The Hasbeens and <br>
Novamen) and music styles (Hip Hop, Miami Bass, Electro,
Disco etcetera <br>
ad infinitum). His solo aliases are Model Man and Dream
Disco and recently <br>
he's gained some fame by appearing in the internet series
RELICS OF THE <br>
PAST, where he stars as Professor Gardner.<br>
<br>
In order to unravel the inner psyche of this versatile
man, I decided to <br>
meet up with him in Schiermonnikoog, an island situated at
the north of <br>
the Netherlands. We sat down in a nice and quaint
'locale', ordered some<br>
coffee and bitterballen whilst having a view of the marina
where his <br>
sailing vessel (the HMS Jaguar) was embarked.</font><br>
<br>
<font color="#009900">Tell us about your sailing yacht.</font><br>
Well, you can't call it a yacht really. Still its quite
luxurious. It<br>
has a 9,9 HP outboard motor, allowing you to choose between
sailing<br>
and using the motor. Also, it has a kitchen aboard which I
share with<br>
another guy.<br>
<br>
<font color="#009900">What do you usually cook on board?</font><br>
Pasta, steak, French Fries, eggs, salmon potatoes- you know,
as long<br>
as you can make it with two pans you can make it on my boat.
We also<br>
use a disposable barbque to do picnics on the shore.<br>
<br>
<font color="#009900">Recently you initiated a side career
as an actor in Relics of The Past.<br>
Could you tell us what actors have influenced your acting
style- and <br>
with that the character of Professor Gardner?</font><br>
It’s based mainly on Marlon Brando. I have to watch out with
that or <br>
people might start calling me an imitator. But it was also
inspired by <br>
old gangster movies. Robert Mitchum, Robert Ryan, Glenn
Ford, James <br>
Cagney, Humphrey Bogart; I find them supercool. <br>
<br>
<font color="#009900">Is he really so wealthy as rumoured?</font><br>
Not as wealthy as the potsmoking, weight lifting surfer
dudes. They <br>
seem to have nothing better to do than lift weights, smoke
pot, surf <br>
and talk about shit and synths.<br>
<br>
<font color="#009900">What is your favorite movie?</font><br>
I would have to say: The Funeral by Abel Ferrara. I very
much like <br>
the opening with the old cars in the funeral procession,
Billy <br>
Holiday singing Gloomy Sunday. Then all the misery starts;
gangsters<br>
who kill people almost for fun and see them deal with the
loss of a<br>
brother, and the silly reason why he got killed. I like Abel
Ferrara <br>
films in general. They seem to feel more realistic than
others.<br>
<font color="#009900"><br>
Can you give us some tips on obscure soundtracks? What are
your <br>
favourites?<br>
</font><br>
Trouble Man (Ivan Dixon) by Marvin Gaye. I might find that
the best<br>
soundtrack ever. The horn section, the drums and that Moog…
it’s <br>
almost perfect. <br>
<br>
Then, obviously, Blade Runner, beautiful sounds- the
Vangelis has to<br>
be the best synthsoundtrackmaker ever. I also like anything
by John <br>
Carpenter. <br>
<br>
Also:
De Dood van een Non <br>
Die Frau Ohne Körper Und der Projektonist<br>
Solo Für Zwei Superkiller (Jack White) <br>
The Beast of War (Mark Isham)<br>
<br>
There’s also this guy named Carter Burwell, with his
instantly <br>
recognisable piano playing style. In Psycho II he used the
Ensoniq SQ80 <br>
and the Roland TR808 Drummachine:<br>

<br>
<br>
<font color="#009900">Why do you prefer the EMU SP12 Turbo
over the SP1200?</font><br>
Because it’s the one that I could get my hands on. I used to
have an<br>
SP1200 but it was a bit fnurky. They are prone to more
problems than <br>
the SP12, like the wellknown output problem that
eventually made me <br>
get rid of my SP1200. <br>
<br>
I prefer the look of the SP12 though. The original SP1200
looked <br>
great, but I don’t like the look of the black case. I would
like to <br>
have an original grey SP1200 but they are too
expensive now. I used <br>
to live in New York where I bought mine for $1000,-
and sold it for <br>
€1100,- here in the Netherlands. They now go for $2500,-
which is<br>
insane!<br>
<br>
<font color="#009900">When did you start using the SP12?</font><br>
I bought my first SP12 from the producers of Mai Tai, who
had some <br>
hits in the Netherlands in the late 80's. DJ Technician (of
Get It<br>
Boyz)and I drove to Hilversum to buy it from a guy in a big
ass studio. <br>
He looked at us and when he went to demo the unit, picked up
a <br>
microphone and said, “YO", to sample it. Ha, I guess he knew
we liked<br>
Hip Hop. All we could do was laugh. He coulnd't get the
diskdrive to <br>
work so I tried my luck and haggled a third off the asking
price. <br>
I think he asked 1700 guilders and I payed him 1200 in the
end. <br>
Man, was I ever happier! I had wanted this machine for so
long. They <br>
would name drop the SP1200 in so many hip hop tracks I loved
and it is <br>
the ultimate Miami Bass machine. I would even dare to say
that without <br>
this machine there wouldn't be any Miami Bass.<br>
<br>
<font color="#009900">So then you had zillions of them?</font><br>
Well, two! I traded a second one for a Roland TR808. Which I
love, <br>
the way it walks and talks, but I didn’t like the
limitations on the<br>
sequencer. My first SP12 was falling apart, so when I saw
one for sale <br>
I asked the seller if he wanted to trade. Some time later
Willie Burns <br>
found me a new face-plate to upcycle the first SP12. Now
it’s working <br>
perfectly fine and I have two SP12’s.<br>
<font color="#009900"><br>
Could you tell us why the Ensoniq ESQ-1 and SQ80 are the
best synths in <br>
the world? Or should we keep this a secret?</font><br>
It’s an insane synthesizer, the best in a hardware setting.
It has a <br>
modular which you can build to launch off and circle the
moon; it’s <br>
limitless. Mainly, I would say that there is no other synth,
especially <br>
for that price, which can do sounds as good as the Ensoniqs.
Also, the <br>
engineers shoud get their weight payed in gold for the
lay-out. I mean,<br>
noobs could do cool things with it- even the simplest things
sound <br>
creamy,lush and breathy-well, sound designers could go nuts
using this <br>
thing! The only limitation I sometimes encounter is the
eight voices. <br>
<font color="#009900"><br>
Any interesting freaky tour stories? For example from when
you lived in <br>
the USA and toured a lot with Ron Morelli and MR. Pauli.<br>
</font><br>
One night we had to leave immediately after the gig. We were
in, I think<br>
New Hampshire, and had to be in Detroit the next day. This
meant that we <br>
had to drive all night long and day to get there in time. I
was driving <br>
at the time, enjoying the night drive when it started to
rain. Bad. It <br>
started raining so hard that I had to chase the truck in
front of us <br>
because it’s tail lights were the only things that I could
see. That kept<br>
me awake for quite a while.<br>
<br>
Playing in Detroit is always a blast. This time we were
playing at the<br>
Detroit Eagle during Halloween. It’s a gay bar with freaks
only, dressing <br>
up all weird or being completely naked. The DJ booth was
covered by <br>
pictures of hard dicks. The t-shirt I got that night is my
favourite<br>
ever, with a Freddy Mercury look-a-like beefed up guy
staring your pants<br>
off. <br>
<br>
One night we had to sleep in this guys house who had like
thirty cats <br>
andthe house smelled insanely bad like cat pass. My head was
covered<br>
by my sweater and my sleeping bag and I could still smell
it. The moment<br>
the sun rose I went out and sat outside until we were ready
to leave. <br>
<font color="#009900"><br>
All we can smell currently is the salty sea and some fried
fish. The tide is<br>
coming back up and it is time for Overdose to embark on
his boat and sail away.<br>
Where to? His distant dreams, Gardner’s empire, maybe to a
Ferrara film scene. <br>
All I know is that I am satisfied with having lifted a
little of the veil of<br>
mystery that surrounds and follows him forever.<br>

<br>
<br>
By Sir Wallace Burdock<br>
<br>
The energy that powers Japan comes from its volcanoes and
seismic activity,<br>
though it is not direct or obvious. From the Earth's core it
radiates through<br>
the land and influences people's brains in a very subtle way
- when a physical<br>
stimulus is converted into electrical impulses, the primeval
seismic energy<br>
resonates with these impulses, magnifying brain's responses.
It doesn't expand<br>
perception, but it makes it more intense, adding new layers
of meanings. It is<br>
not unlike a drug.<br>
<br>
It's the reason why the Japanese celebrate simple forms so
much - they're the<br>
perfect vessel to be charged with the ancient truths hidden
in the tensions<br>
and shifting polarities of forces that shape the whole
planet.<br>
<br>
We won't be discussing all the effects this has on the
society, but please<br>
note Japan's industry, with its endless stream of cars and
electronic<br>
appliances. Designed by Japanese engineers, all these
artifacts, from the<br>
configuration of mechanical parts to intricate patterns on
circuit boards,<br>
bear at least fragments of the inner Earth's harmony. And
here we come to the<br>
main topic: the Japanese music gear.<br>
<br>
Ever wondered why so many great music-making machines come
from over there?<br>
Yes, it's because of volcanoes and Japanese mind-enhancing
power field. The<br>
audio waves produced by even simple pieces of gear are in
direct correlation<br>
to the waves broadcasted by the planet's core. Even when
taken overseas, it<br>
doesn't change - it's embedded in their design.<br>
<br>
It's also evident when roaming Japan's music stores - and
there's so many of<br>
them! Both used and new gear is treated with the same
reverence, as everyone<br>
feels that what they hold in their hands is, in a way, holy.
When you buy a<br>
second-hand item, it will be carefully secured with a bubble
wrap and handed<br>
to you with a respectful bow. Sometimes you can even
get a couple of months<br>
of warranty. The prices are low. Not dirt-cheap low, as
they're still valuable<br>
items, but maybe 2-3 times lower than in Europe.<br>
<br>
There is one small issue, though, and it's again connected
with volcanoes: the<br>
voltage in Japan is lower than in both Europe and America,
to utilize the<br>
resonance of the seismic radiation and stabilize the
current. It means that<br>
you need to carefully read the voltage description on the
power supplies - if<br>
it says 100-240V or something similar, you'll be fine with
just a cheap plug<br>
adapter, but if it's 100V only, then be prepared to buy a
compatible PSU<br>
wherever you live.<br>
<br>
As many of you may be visiting Japan on tight schedules,
here are some tips<br>
for looking for treasures. First, some general remarks:<br>
<br>
* random places - sometimes you can go to a regular
department store, and<br>
between fashion outlets and bookstores there will be a small
music store with<br>
a couple of latest synths and vocaloid gadgets, but then,
right in the middle,<br>
you'll find, let's say, a mighty Dr. Rhythm 660 drum machine
for 5000 yen,<br>
which is roughly 35 euro. In perfect condition, with the
original power<br>
supply.<br>
<br>
* friends - get a lot of them when you're in Japan. Who
knows, maybe they have<br>
a 4-track cassette recorder lying around that they've never
used, and you, a<br>
foreign musician, could do something interesting with it?
For free, I may add?<br>
<br>
* Hard OFF - it's a part of a big chain of stores like Book
OFF, Mode OFF,<br>
Hobby OFF and so on, dealing with second-hand goods,
spanning the whole<br>
country. In the music section you'll usually find tons of
guitar pedals,<br>
family keyboards for 700 yen, heaps of DJ controllers,
amplifiers, and among<br>
this mess there may be an occassional synth, drum machine or
groovebox. You<br>
can also see a vacuum cleaner and a snake-skin shamisen
standing next to each<br>
other looking like this:<br>

On top of that, in Tokyo there's a couple of places where
you probably want to<br>
go:<br>
<br>
* Ochanomizu - it's a district known for its guitar shops,
and yes, guitars<br>
are most common, but apart from that there's tons of other
instruments, too,<br>
and there are some places which sell synths only. Ochanomizu
is also great for<br>
used gear - most shops have second-hand corners; there
should be at least a<br>
shiny Electribe hanging somewhere behind the shopkeeper. The
majority of the<br>
shops are located on one street that goes south from the
west exit of the<br>
Ochanomizu train station.<br>
<br>
* Akihabara - in a walking distance from Ochanomizu,
Akihabara is a mecca for<br>
otaku, but also a thriving trade hub of electronic
appliances. Most shops will<br>
sell you stuff tax-free as long as you have a valid
passport. Location of<br>
music gear in the stores changes, so I won't give you exact
locations, but<br>
it's not uncommon to uncover heaps of vintage gear at, for
example, a top floor<br>
of a 5-store Apple products shop. To make looking for
treasures easier, here<br>
are some useful words:<br>
<br>
<br>
CHUUKO
(second-hand) GAKKI (instruments)<br>

<br>
* Flea markets - ok, I actually didn't make it to one of
those yet as there<br>
was always some free food to be had when I tried to go, BUT
- I imagine there<br>
could be some nice finds. The biggest flea market seems to
be at the Oi<br>
(sometimes spelled Ohi) racetrack. Be sure to look up the
schedule online<br>
before you go!<br>
<br>
* FiveG - this store is a bit of a legend. There are so many
magnificent<br>
machines there that it feels like some kind of a dreamy
museum, until you<br>
start looking at the price tags, when it starts feeling like
a luxury car<br>
salon. Fortunately there are some cool items on sale
apart from those vintage<br>
monsters, as they seem to take in a lot of abused gear,
clean, fix and<br>
refurbish it, but yeah, the main focus is still on the
expensive stuff. Worth<br>
going anyway as it's quite a unique place. It's close to
Harajuku's popular<br>
Takeshita street, where you can hear Japanese spoken with an
Afro-American<br>
accent.<br>
<br>
If you find a nice piece of gear in one of those places,
remember: it's not a<br>
standalone item - it's a terminal that gives you access to
the vast<br>
underground network of energy, the extension of the ancient
circuitry that<br>
powers the movement of continents, that is Earth itself.
Open your ears and<br>
listen. Decays, especially.<br>

<font color="#00cccc">Do your own “Experiment with time”
and learn to predict the future! <br>
~Inspired by D.W. Dunne~<br>
<br>
Right now, I’m writing this article whilst Shadow Wolf
makes a disturbing<br>
nazi mouse sound. Not that it has anything to do with my
article, it just<br>
seemed like a good introduction. In a far away past I
researched the <br>
notorious film Irréversible (Gaspar Noé, 2002) and
stumbled upon a reference <br>
to the book called “An Experiment With Time”. The book
appeared in a shot of <br>
maybe a few seconds, but the title caught my attention
and I decided to start investigating this book that
pushed the narrative into it’s highly <br>
unpredictable development. <br>
<br>
Irréversible claims that time is elliptical, not linear.
This certain notion <br>
is found also in 2001: A Space Odyssey, and the
foundation for this theory lies <br>
in D.W. Dunne’s book. He claims that everything happens
at the same time and<br>
that proof can be found in premonitory dreams. <br>
<br>
In order to make things a little less dull and dry, I
shall escort you through<br>
the theory whilst showing you how you can do this
experiment yourself. All <br>
you need is a pen, paper, patience and an open mind.
Within a few days, weeks,<br>
months, or years, you will be able to predict the future
yourself!<br>
<br>
Let’s start by a little background information. Our
consciousness forces our<br>
perception of time to flow in one direction. The
past is behind us, the now <br>
is now and the future lies ahead. If this were true,
then how come people<br>
experience premonitory dreams? And with these
dreams we don’t mean the ones<br>
charlatans claim to have (in the same line of
Crystal therapy and aura reading)<br>
- no, J.W. Dunne had spent his life dedicated to science
in it’s purest form yet<br>
failed to explain why he sometimes saw into the
future. The answer, he now <br>
knows, is simple; there is no future.<br>
<br>
Everything happens in the eternal now, we just fail to
realise it! It’s one<br>
big jumble mumble of moments and experiences happening
at the same time but <br>
we as human beings fail to grasp this. Then, why dreams?
This is because Dunne <br>
claims that during our moments of subconsciousness we
are able to see slivers<br>
of the future and the past. We just learned that all
these ‘dreams’ are only<br>
dreams, but Dunne says that some information in these
dreams tell us about <br>
the eternal now. See, the slivers are not really seeing
into the future, it’s <br>
being able to experience the now you will experience in
the future. <br>
<br>
So, how do you look into your future now?<br>
<br>
The first step is to try and remember your dreams.
Without remembering, there<br>
is no way you’ll see your future! Everybody has dreams,
most of us just fail to <br>
recall them. Whenever you wake up, try and write down
everything you remember<br>
about your dreams straight away. Don’t wait, don’t pee:
write! Doing this<br>
constantly for a while will boost your ability to recall
dream moments clearly. <br>
<br>
After mastering this, you’ll need to filter the nonsense
in your dreams from <br>
the truly important elements. Start by writing down
everything as detailed as<br>
possible. How did you feel, what colours were there,
smells, sounds, thoughts?<br>
This step is essential because our ‘time travelling’
makes us live through <br>
experiences, not just images. Here’s an example:
I
dream about a man installing <br>
three spider webs in my room and I feel a little
paranoid about it. I’m hiding<br>
behind a rock observing him an his daughter placing the
webs. After the third <br>
is installed, he burns them, causing his daughter to
burst into flames.<br>
He tells her: “it was all meant to trigger this reaction
in you, I’m so proud <br>
that you’ve erupted!”. <br>
<br>
Weird huh? The goal is to write down everything and as
you continue living, <br>
pay great attention to whether you see links between
your dreams and your <br>
experiences. Maybe this dream is connected to a film I
might watch in twenty <br>
years. See, there’s no time rule about when these
moments might happen in our <br>
perception or whether they’ve already happened!<br>

It's the perfect occasion to socialise with likeminded
spirits. Get high or <br>
drunk, play with synthesizers you don't own (yet), discuss
different pattern <br>
techniques and cable logistics; just overall dork out! These
six easy steps<br>
will guide you through the process of setting up your
monthly festivity. <br>
Fun is 100% guaranteed!<br>
<br>
STEP 1: Give it a cool name like "AVALON SYNTH CLIQUE" or
"MALIBU SYNTHESIZER<br>
DOLPHINS". If you want to be experimental and mysterious you
could leave out<br>
the word synthesizer, like "SYNERGY 101", "VCO SYNDICATE" or
"SPECTRA BOYS".<br>
If you have trouble choosing: ask your neighbour what name
sounds the <br>
freakiest to him and choose that one.<br>
<br>
STEP 2: Design a logo. If you have the tools try making a
stamp out of it, <br>
this way you can design your own postcards and be all cool
with that logo.<br>
<br>
STEP 3: Invite your members in spe. Announce the birth of
the synthesizer <br>
club on forums, social media and whatever is being used at
that time. Make a<br>
website with lots of colours and make flyers which you can
leave at record<br>
stores and obscure clubs.<br>
<br>
TIP: Having trouble finding juicy new members? Rummage
through your old <br>
yearbooks, look for the biggest dork and send him your
awesome postcard. <br>
<br>
STEP 4: Make the event happen. After getting some members,
invite them to <br>
your own house or to your local event location. Make them
bring their synths, <br>
power cables and headphones. <br>
<br>
STEP 5: Decorate decorate decorate! Think big, think
colourfull and flashy. <br>
LED strips, plasma lighting, Fractal projections, lava lamps
and interstellar <br>
wall projections are all suitable options.<br>
<br>
STEP 6: Get some waster material (alcohol, weed), drinks
(Punica, Chocomel,<br>
<small></small>Fristi), snacks (liqourice, bananas,
jellybeans). Anything goes except for <br>
saucy things, extremely crumbly things and sticky things.
WARNING: Cheetos <br>
are an absolute no-no because of their smell and the sticky
cheese powder <br>
that stains the keyboard keys yellow.<br>
<br>
It's your own decision whether you want people to pay up for
participation. <br>
I would suggest asking for some small donation to cover some
of the costs.<br>
<br>
Article Appendix: cool suggestions<br>
<br>
- BINGO: Also a nice way to fund your club. Make people pay
up 5 bucks for<br>
a bingo ticket and use the money to buy prices. If you are
slick you can use<br>
the money for the club and use crappy things as prices. Such
as old keyboards,<br>
records, synth cleaning equipment, synth magazines etc. etc.
ad infinitum.<br>
- Make a zine with information regarding synths, your club
and cool events <br>
in the world.<br>
- Make laminated club passes. This enhances the feeling of
authenticity and<br>
importance. You can get DIY laminating kits at most office
supply stores.<br>
- Set up workshops, concerts, parties, synth-picnics, garage
sales, micro <br>
festivals and talkshows.<br>
- Have cool aliases for the club members. Pamaha 303,
NitewaveRitzz of <br>
Proraver 2000 are examples that should put you on the right
track.<br>

KEYBOARD REVERSE<br>
<font color="#33cc00">Are you lacking inspiration??? Reverse
the keyboard! Sit behind your <br>
synth, just turn it around so you are facing the backside.
You will be <br>
pleasently surprised how different you sound! Now you will
make your melodies<br>
with switched brain halves so to speak! You can do this
switching brain<br>
halves trick with a lot of other stuff too! <br>
</font> <br>
SAMPLE YOURSELF<br>
<font color="#33cc00">Sample your own tracks, stuff you
never going to use, sketches, even ur hits<br>
and mangle them, pitch them up, down, filter it, modulate
it etc. Make fresh<br>
tracks with ur own sounds. Keep using the music as a
fractal on and on.</font> <br>
<br>
RECORD SAMPLES ON CASSETTE<br>
<font color="#33cc00">Get an old cassette recorder and just
record some synths jamming on a tape.<br>
Now record the cassette in your sampler and notice the
fuzzy warm tape sound<br>
especially when you throw a tiny amount of lowpass filter
on it and add a<br>
littlebit of high-EQ! Instant basic channel and wooly BOC
style!</font><br>
<br>
KORG VOLCA KEYS SUPER POLYPHONIC MIDI SEQUENCER<br>
<font color="#33cc00">The Korg Volca Keys is a bit of a
boring synthesizer...you probably throw<br>
it in the corner after playing with it for 10
minutes...but WAIT! Did you<br>
know the sequencer sends MIDI OUT!!!??? yes and a lot of
other stuff too...<br>
the problem is ofcourse there is no MIDI OUT port beacause
they had to keep<br>
the costs down. No PORT but quite enigmatic a fully
working MIDI out circuit <br>
is inside. So the only thing u gotta do is attach the MIDI
connector.<br>
The problem is where to put the MIDI out port, u can put
it on the side or<br>
hang it loose with a wire from the outside.<br>
</font><br>
3.5" DD/HD Sampler FloppieDisc Crack<br>
<font color="#33cc00">YOu got some old gear that uses 3.5"
DD floppies? You might have a problem<br>
because 3.5" DD Floppies are almost NOWHERE to be found
these days. The only <br>
ones you can still easily get are the HD types which don't
run in DD <br>
discdrives...it is said,but with a bit of ragtag
improvisation they will!<br>
Most 3.5" HD floppydiscs will work too, just get a piece
of tape and stick it<br>
over the (left) hole Now for some reason this doesn't work
on all diskdrives,<br>
but mostly it does.</font><br>
<br>
Rice shaker<br>
<font color="#33cc00">Add some natural groove to your music:
Take one of those plastic yellow <br>
Kindersurprise egg containers put in some rice and you got
a shaker.<br>
Record some loops and add over drums for extra "natural"
spice.</font><br>
<br>
PITCH ENVELOPE <br>
<font color="#33cc00">You can make sounds much more
interesting by adding a slight touch of pitch<br>
envelope, only at the decay, so it begins with a little
"hiccup". This will add<br>
some tension to your melodies and give the listeners brain
some more enjoyment.<br>
It sort of sounds like portemento but then you can use it
more polyphonic.<br>
So a good envelope would be:<br>
Attack 0ms Decay 50% Sustain 0 and release whatever. Add
this envelope for about<br>
8 - 10% to the synthesizer/sampler pitch envelope amount.</font><br>

CASSETTE SPECIAL<br>
<br>
Essential Trip Music Reviews<br>
<br>
A great source for forgotten new age ambient etc.
synthesizer music is <br>
soundsofthedawn.net Tons of cassettes have been digitized in
mp3 format and the<br>
inlays scanned too. Here are some life changing treasures
you can dig up there:<br>
<br>
Fred Whackenhut - Orianna Twilight <font color="#cc9933">*<font
color="#ffcc00">*<font color="#ffee00">*<font
color="#ffffcc">*<font color="#ffffff">*</font></font></font>
</font></font><br>
A forgotten ambient jazz classic on the beyond ultra cult
MU-PSYCH label<br>
On side A its mostly romantic filmic piano mixed with dark
synthesizer tones.<br>
I guess its nice to listen to if you are taking a bath or
something.<br>
But its the B-Side where things go mental with a more deeper
melancholic <br>
trippy vibe. Somewhere in the middle (the tracks are all
untitled) around<br>
10 minutes, things expand into ascension with vaporous
accidentals of incredible<br>
portamento'd solosynthesizer. Can't stop listening to this.<br>

face="Courier">Mesmerizing harmonic album from blind bay
area synthesist Pauline Anna Strom.<br>
Released in 1982 it ventures lightyears away from anything
you might have heard<br>
at that time. There is something very special about this
music, unknown emotions<br>
bubble up with an enorumous vibe of an etheral sacredness.
Apparently played on<br>
a Sequential Prophet 10 synthesizer.<br>

1981 by husband-and-wife music group Emerald Web. <br>
According to the new age music encyclopedia they perfomed in

made music for Carl Sagan's COSMOS series and did a lot of
other TV soundtrack <br>

1983 harp gepingel with some unsettling stunning synthesizer
parts.<br>
As expected by the title a lot of the tracks are very
Arthurian. But its all in <br>
a very consenting luring minimalistic way and going towards
a lot of different <br>
places. Like Aphex Twin Selected Ambient Works II with a
touch of Autechre with <br>
a milli-gram of Doris Norton, sometimes even touching a
NICO-esque mood.<br>

Enter the undiscovered nor explained weirdness of the cosmos
-> all <br>
reachable in that dusty old short wave world radio you
thought was a <br>
relic of bygone years.<br>
<br>
In an endless ocean of swooshes and organic white noise you
can travel all<br>
over the world and beyond. Stumble upon forgotten obscure
distant radio <br>
stations, strange weather phenomena and bleeps and burp from
secret spy<br>
broadcasts!<br>
<br>
What is shortwave radio???<br>
Shortwave radio (SW) is the radio transmissions band using
shortwave<br>
frequencies around 1.6 to 30 Mhz. Shortwave radio
transmissons can travel<br>
extremely long distances because the radiowaves are
refracted back to<br>
earth from the earths atmosphere. It is not only used for
radiostation<br>
broadcasts but also for long distance communication between
ships and<br>
airplanes and communication with difficult to reach remote
parts of the <br>
world.<br>
<br>
So there is a lot of obscure stuff going on this SW band and
so it makes<br>
an excellent and infinite source of sounds for your music!<br>
<br>
What you need:<br>
<br>
A short wave radio "world band reciever", probably have one
lying around<br>
in the attic/cellar/closet, if you don't have one: any
thrift store will<br>
have one for cheap.<br>

There are two types:<br>
- The ones with an analog dail for tuning the stations<br>
- The ones with a digital + and - and memory for tuning the
stations<br>
<br>
You can use both but I prefer to use the ones with the
analog dail because<br>
then you can make smoother movements when you go through the
airwaves<br>
and they just work faster, the digital ones have the
tendency to have <br>
no sound when it scans through the stations and they just
work slower in<br>
general.<br>
So better get one with the analog dail/tuning knob, they are
generally <br>
cheaper too!<br>
<br>
A stereo minijack to Left & Right RCA/Cinch or Jack or
whatever you<br>
want to use to connect to.<br>

<br>
You can connect the radio straight to your soundcard,
sampler, modular,<br>
filter input of synthesizer, fx boxes, pedals etc.<br>
<br>
Now scan through the airwaves and start looking for sounds!<br>
sometimes you can control sweeps with weird swooshes and
swashes by<br>
turning the dail up and down at certain frequencies.<br>
<br>
Voices from beyond, totalitarian state speeches, atmospheric
static, naval<br>
chitchat, galactic blurps, extraterrestrial messages, exotic
evaporting<br>
music from distant islands etc.etc.etc. Just a tip of the
iceberg of the<br>
sounds you may encounter!<br>
<br>
No need to splash out 10000000 $$$ for a modular wall -
your 5$ world<br>
band reciever can do it too!<br>
<br>
You can add an antenna to your world reciever to greatly
improve the <br>
stuff you can recieve.<br>
Just connect a long wire to the radios antenna (wrap it
around) and lead<br>
the wire to somewhere outside, preferable somewhere high.
Maybe add some<br>
tinfoil squares or circles to the end of the wire. I have no
clue if that<br>
does anything but it definitely will look cool!<br>

tips: </font><br>
<br>
Also be sure your world reciever/radio is not too close to
any electro<br>
magnetic sources: refgrigirators, computers, synthesizers
etc. can<br>

Most of the time can recieve more in the evening and at
night due to <br>
better conditions for the signal.<br>

Movietips & Reviews<br>
<br>
Driller Killer 1979 Abel Ferrara US <font color="#ffcc33">*<font
color="#ffff66">*<font color="#ffffcc">*<font
color="#ffffff">*</font></font></font></font><br>
A young artist is running on empty and out of money. He
finds himself <br>
immersed into a new hobby with a drill and power-pack
battery. Classic <br>
New York late 70s No Wave Cult movie. So much weird and
funny stuff going on.<br>
Cool crappy lo-fi synth renditions of some Bach pieces on
the soundtrack.<br>
Abel Ferrara directs and plays the lead role and he is one
cool guy.<br>
<br>
The Legend of Hell House 1973 John Hough UK <font
color="#ffcc33">*<font color="#ffff00">*<font
color="#ffffff">**</font></font></font><br>
On paper an exploitation copy of the 1963 'The Haunted'
but in real life<br>
it turns out to be a superior movie all the way. The story
is the cliche<br>
"Parapsychologists investigate haunted mansion" plot but
done extremely well.<br>
Mainly by not showing anything. Also the weird silent
atmosphere, strange<br>
characters and off the hook serene camera work. But the
real secret of this<br>
movie's power might be the intensly scary electronic
soundtrack by none others<br>
then Delia Debishere and Brian Hodgson (from the BBC
radiophonic workshop)<br>
<br>
</font></font></small></font><font color="#33ff33"><small><font
face="Courier"><font color="#33ff99"><font color="#33ffdd">The
Fourth Man 1983 Paul Verhoeven NL <font color="#ffcc00">*<font
color="#ffff00">*<font color="#ffff33">*<font
color="#ffffcc">*<font color="#ffffff">**</font></font></font></font></font><br>
Paul Verhoevens seminal masterpiece. His last film he
made in Holland before<br>
he went to Hollywood and made Robocop, showgirls,
starshipstroopers etc.<br>
Based on a famous dutch novel by Gerard Reve it tells
the story of an alcoholic<br>
writer who has to do a lecture in the remote seaside
town of Vlissingen,<br>
there he meets a mysterious female fan and things turn
into Hitchcockian Suspense.<br>
A sensual charged mesmerzing dreamy atmosphere of
saturated surrealism. <br>
Great haunting soundtrack by the obscure composer Loek
Dikker.<br>
<br>
The Attic 1980 George Edwards US <font color="#ffcc00">*<font
color="#ffff00">*<font color="#ffffcc">*<font
color="#ffffff">*</font></font></font></font><br>
Psychological thriller about a loneley librarian who is
being controlled by<br>
her disabled father. She also has a pet monkey and got
fired recently while<br>
she tried to burn down the library that employed her.
Besides that she is also<br>
waiting for her fiancee who mysteriously dissapeared 17
years ago.<br>
If todays crap Hollywood movies even had 1% of this
plotline they would be <br>
so much better!<br>
<br>
The Lathe Of Heaven 1980 <font color="#ffcc00">*<font
color="#ffff00">*<font color="#ffff33">*<font
color="#ffffff">*</font></font></font></font><br>
Set in a semi-sort off dystopian futuristic portland a
man can change the world <br>
around him by dreaming. A Dream specialist gets involved
and starts using the man<br>
for his own agenda. A very cosey hazed atmosphere
throughout the whole movie makes<br>
it a pleasure to watch. A bit slow paced maybe but its
so pleasant it works like<br>
a meditative trip. This movie has a lot of interesting
ideas...cool shots of <br>
futuristic science buildings, warm saturated synth
music, endless rain and <br>
everything we like.<br>

Another scribble from Baz Reznik's travel journal:<br>
<br>
VISA TROUBLE<br>
<br>
Every country has its own visa regulations and when you
visit 23 in one<br>
year you will encounter problems. It doesn't matter how well
you think <br>
you prepare, with all those different regulations you're
bound to fuck<br>
up one day. Most commonly is the "stamp in, stamp out"
regulation. You<br>
receive a stamp in your passport the day you cross the
border which counts <br>
as your visa and as long as you exit within the time-limit
specified on the<br>
stamp there is not much of a problem. The difficult thing is
usually <br>
getting the stamp without paying. For example in Latin
America most <br>
countries won't charge Europeans for the stamp (people from
the USA are <br>
usually a big exception due to the strict USA immigration
regulations and<br>
high costs: a lot of South American countries mirror those
costs in their <br>
own immigration laws). This doesn't mean you'll get your
stamp with ease. <br>
The land-borders between two Latin-American countries are
considered a <br>
"no man's land". Between stamping out and stamping in you
will be harassed <br>
by numerous people who will try to convince you to buy the
"very important <br>
immigration forms" (that are usually free at the immigration
stand), who <br>
will try to sell you drugs (and then tell their police
friends about it) <br>
and who will offer their "service" as luggage carrier (for
which you will <br>
pay a lot or face the consequences of never seeing your
backpack again). <br>
When you finally reached the immigration office you'll have
to stay quite <br>
strong not to pay the corrupt officer behind the counter. In
some cases <br>
they just confiscate your passport and force you to pay some
dollars to<br>
get it back and believe me, when they point a gun on you,
you will pay. <br>
<br>
Make sure you always have a pile of small dollar signs with
you to ease <br>
out the tension. Another difficulty about traveling over
land is the <br>
absence of a return ticket. At a lot of borders you'll have
to proof that <br>
you're going to leave within the days specified in your visa
and the only<br>
legal proof is a plane ticket out. This might turn out
difficult if you<br>
travel everything by bus. We quickly got experts in
falsifying plane <br>
tickets and even had a ready made empty ticket on our laptop
that we could<br>
fill in with every destination we wanted which we would
print at the last<br>
stop before crossing a border. <br>
<br>
The biggest mistake we made was between Uruguay and
Argentina. From Buenos<br>
Aires there is a boat crossing the Rio de La Plata to
Montevideo, Uruguay.<br>
On our way there we got a stamp at the Argentina side, went
on the boat and <br>
got our entry stamp in the harbor of Colonia. On the way
back we got our exit<br>
stamp in Colonia. After one hour we landed in the Buenos
Aires port. Walking<br>
from the boat, through the hall, around the corner and…
outside? Where was<br>
our entry stamp? It turned out that we should have gotten
our exit and entry<br>
stamp at the Uruguayan side. There was nothing the people
from the company<br>
could do, it was already late and the next day they would
sort it out for us. <br>
When we arrived at the shipping company the next day and
talked to the people <br>
again we were told they still couldn't do anything (so why
don't tell us that<br>
the night before?). We had to go to the immigration office
on the other side<br>
of town (where we just came from) and sort it out there.
After hours of<br>
waiting, countless of lines, signs, pulling numbers,
explaining again why we <br>
were there and begging for a stamp we finally got the
answer: there is nothing <br>
anybody could do, we were illegal and nobody was going to
help us. The only <br>
thing we could do was bring enough money to the border
crossing when leaving <br>
the country to pay the officer there.<br>
<br>
We traveled the whole of Argentina as illegals. Got stopped
a few times at <br>
various checkpoints where we got questioned about why we,
according to our <br>
passports, already left the country. But we were able to
dodge the bullet by<br>
pretending not to speak Spanish so the (only Spanish
speaking) police officers <br>
would give up after a while. <br>
<br>
The real challenge came when we had to cross the border to
Chili in the south<br>
of Argentina. In the middle of nowhere the bus stopped at a
dodgy looking <br>
border post. Just a container in the middle of the dessert
with a barricade <br>
on the (gravel) road. Nervously we got in line with the
other passengers in <br>
a movie-like setting where two military looking border
officials had to stop <br>
their game of ping pong to check our passports. Slowly we
advanced to the<br>
booth where one of the bearded guys was seated under a big
portrait of<br>
the president. We had no money left to pay them off and had
a slight <br>
conjecture that the possibilities of making a payment by
bank where limited<br>
in this border post that was a eight our bus ride straight
to the dry plains<br>
from the nearest town. Would we be stuck here for a while?<br>

Ancient Celtic Forest Fruit Yoghurt Elixer<br>
<br>
The ancient druids would carry baskets of fruit onto mount
snowdonia, let<br>
them freeze and return them to make an ancient celtic
magical frozen<br>
yoghurt icecream concoction.<br>
<br>
What you need:<br>
Frozen forest fruits (Cherries, raspberries, blueberries,
strawberries, red <br>
currants etc.etc.etc.)<br>
Any kind of natural (greek) yoghurt<br>
Almond Flakes, or walnuts or something like that.<br>
<br>
Just dump the frozen forestfruits in a mixer (not an audio
one but a<br>
food one in the kitchen), be sure its still frozen, maybe
let them defrost<br>
for 5 - 10 minutes just to take the cold edge off.<br>
If you are lazy or dont' have one you can just use a fork or
something<br>
to crush the half frozen fruit (Maybe let it defrost a
little bit longer<br>
when doing this).<br>
Dump the yoghurt in the mixer and mix it all together until
its smooth<br>
Throw some almond flakes on it and your are ready! No need
to add sugar<br>
the fruits are sweet enough already.<br>

<font color="#33cc00">SMACKOS TAPE STATION is an Effectsrack
for Ableton version 9.0 and up. <br>
It simulates a wooley cassette tape sound recording on a
rather smugdey<br>
headed cassettedeck from c.a. 1981. <br>
<br>
Download the SMACKOS TAPE STATION from
http://www.legowelt.org<br>
drag the SMACKOS TAPE STATION.adg into the Ableton channel
you want to<br>
use it on. It can be used on both MIDI or Audio tracks. <br>
<br>
<font color="#66ffff">Now use the following functions to
alter the sound:</font><br>
<br>
HOT = more extreme input level. On mid to high levels it
will overdrive <br>
and distort certain harmonics. <br>
<br>
HEAD ALLIGN = alters the phase response of the recorded
signal.<br>
<br>
TAPE SPEED = Changes the tape speed, on high levels there
is more high<br>
frequency response, on mid to lower levels the sound gets
more smothered,<br>
losing stridulous high frequencies and making everything
sound more warmer<br>
and woolier.<br>
<br>
BIAS = Fequency response and distortion control for
optimal balance <br>
between linear and nonlinear magnetization <br>
<br>
TAPE NOISE = The amount of Tape Noise. Set -Inf DB for no
noise<br>
<br>
NOISE FILTER = Sets the harshness of the Noise. High Mid
to lower levels<br>
will result in a warmer softer less noticable tape noise
that will be <br>
percieved unconsciously.<br>
<br>
PITCH WOBBLE = Simulates the mechanical imperfectness of
the tapedeck's <br>
engine. Also Known as Wow & Flutter. Creates minute
variations in the<br>
playback frequency resulting in a warbled sound. Adds
emotional content<br>
to the overall sound. Animates the boundaries of the
sounds, less <br>
distinction between solitary sounds. <br>
<br>
TAPE PHAT: controls the tape compression fatness.
simulates the <br>
saturation of magnetic particles, resulting in a complex
compression of <br>
source material. Creates a broader energetic frequency
spectrum. More <br>
low end and a more brighter, yet soothing, high frequency
response.<br>
<br>
<font color="#66ffff">TIPS:</font><br>
<br>
Make the Smackos Tape Station sound even more dynamic by
recording knob<br>
movements of the tape speed, BIAS, Noise Level/filter and
Pitch Wobble<br>
in the track's automation. Especially tiny changes in the
warble can have<br>
a great effect in the high frequencies.<br>
<br>
Try the SMACKOS TAPE STATION on an auxillery Return track.
When you send<br>
a signal through this return track the sound will be more
"phase-like" <br>
and you achieve control over the effect amount with this
"improvised <br>
dry/wet" signal.<br>
<br>
Use the HOT parameter with caution, most of the time TAPE
PHAT will give<br>
more then enough power.<br>
<br>
Put it after (or for) a delay effect like the Ableton
Simple delay for a<br>
Tape echo simulation. Be sure to push the Pitch Wobble in
the highs and<br>
the tape speed medium!<br>
<br>
Why not put 2 SMACKOS TAPE STATION fx in serial for even
more extreme<br>
tape sound? Its free after all so use as many as you
want!!! Imagine<br>
the wow & flutter with 2 different parallel
speeds...or 3 or more!<br>
<br>
SMACKOS TAPE STATION sounds good all kind of sounds! Use
it to "master"<br>
whole tracks, fatten drums, warm up vocals, smooth harsh
high frequencies<br>
etc.etc.etc. The possibilities are endless!<br>

Trip out with this illusionary mind trick
or be amazed how flat<br>
matter breaks the bounderies of its
dimension and escapes into<br>
our space time continuum !!!!!<br>
Or is it...the more sinister other way
around?!!!!?!?!?!?<br>
<br>
Instructions:<br>
<br>
Scroll down the picture below so the
middle white line of the <br>
green "copper"bar will be sort of in the
middlish of your<br>
screen, but be sure there is some space
above and below the <br>
"object" that is equal in size.<br>
<br>
Stare at the white line of the green
copperbar intensily for <br>
a few minutes or as long as it needs. At a
certain moment it<br>
will seem like the rectangular "object"
morphs into a kind<br>
pie-piece (would be KIWI-lime with
blueberry glace topping)<br>
and transcends the screen.. <br>
