Birds, Like Humans, Sing Just Because They Can

I read about this in a Natural Awakenings magazine [Sept 2010]

Gives new meaning to the term “Bird Brained.”

It has been determined that birds not only sing to communicate daily needs, but many engage in sound play, most often when they’re alone, but sometimes also when people are around.

Some bird species continually improvise and embellish their singing with new elements, phrasing and sequences.  For example, nightingales and canaries are avian virtuosos, reinventing their song repertoire each year. The brown thrasher is said to have around 2000 song types – a record. Nightingales organize their compositions according to rules of construction similar to the way humans use syntax [the arrangement of words and phrases]. Nightingales also create distinctive phrases that identify them as individuals.

Recordings or Australian magpies reveal how the bird’s voice  covers four octaves, varies its phrasing between staccato and legato, and embellishes sequences with vibrato, trills or deep overtones. More, it will complete a song with a signature phrase, much like an artist initials a finished painting.

These are some of the reasons to check out FreeMosquitoRingtones.org.

Supposedly most people lose their upper range of hearing as they age.  A story in England mentioned how teens used these high pitched ringtones in classrooms th at their teachers couldn’t hear, so they could send and receive texts undetected.

Well, here’s a bunch of ringtones you can download to your phone – mp3 and wav formats.

To see how good your hearing is (and the highest one to use that you can still hear), play these through a set of speakers that have a rated 20,000Hz response or better. Your hearing may be better than you think if the speakers aren’t able to reproduce the sound.

If you have a dog or cat, they can usually hear the higher frequencies so you can tell if the speakers are producing them by your pet’s reaction. Then see if YOU hear it too.

Personally, I can hear all the way up to 22K… I must be an alien or something because according to the chart, I’m too old to hear that high.

What is the Mosquito Ringtone?

The short version, A tone outside the audible range of hearing for most people over the age of 30. This means that you can get phone calls and receive text messages in class or school without teachers hearing it.

April 25, 2012 UPDATE

Ok, so I was looking around and someone was kind enough to respond to my request on Hulu for this song:

It’s Sugar Water by Cibo Matto – the NYC based japanese girl duo from the 1990s.

Here’s a link to their music video too.

What are Sacred Solfeggio frequencies / notes / harmonics?

These frequencies are not something new, but they are something very old.

BACK STORY:

Sound is measured in Hertz or Hz.

The tuning practice adopted for western cultures during the 16th century and still used today, is known as Twelve-Tone Equal Temperament. One reason for the change is that most instruments are easier to tune in this temerament. Another reason was to eliminate Wolf intervals that were created when using various Just intonation methods.

In Equal temperament, the distance between each step of the scale is the same interval.

You may recognize it as:

C-C#-D-D#-E-F-F#-G-G#-A-A#-B-C

or

C-Db-D-Eb-E-F-Gb-G-Ab-A-Bb-B-C.

Since all music in our contemporary [western] world (from commercials, to popular music and symphonies) has been composed utilizing the 12-Tone Equal Temperament Scale, it’s theorized that they all have vibrational limits.

Thus, vibrational frequency of the tones of modern music can create situations such as “boxed-in thinking,” stuffed and suppressed emotions; and fear-based ” lack” consciousness — all of which then tend to manifest into physical symptoms of ‘dis-ease’.

This is in contrast to music created from the Ancient Solfeggio Scale, which stimulates the vibration of expanded creativity, easier problem solving and holistic health.

The SOLFEGGIO SCALE uses a system of tuning known Just Intonation or  Pythagorean tuning. Frequencies of notes are related by ratios of whole numbers, with Pythagorean tuning using the ratio of 3:2.

Example – 128 Hz and 64 Hz – would be 2:1

The Solfeggio tone, Mi, vibrates to 528 Hz. The closest, comparable, contemporary tone is C5, above Middle C, which vibrates at approximately 523 Hz.

As we look at the six original Solfeggio frequencies [used by energy workers and bodyworkers for healing], using the Pythagorean method, we find the base or root vibrational numbers are 3,6, & 9. Nicola Tesla tells us: “If you only knew the magnificence of the 3, 6 and 9, then you would have a key to the universe.”

The six main musical tones of the Solfeggio scale and their related ‘healing properties’ are as follows:

The posibility that  528 Hz has the ability to repair DNA is not so far fetched to me after I learned about Cymatics. Cymatics is the study of wave phenomena; the ability of sound to organize and repattern matter.  Here’s a cool video illustrating how sound can manipulate media into geometric patterns.

Through music these tones can assist all the channels in staying open and keep the life force (the Chi) literally flowing thru the Chakra System quite freely.  Starting with the Root chakra using UT (396 Hz) up through the 6th chakra LA (852 Hz).  Sometimes, people use a tuning fork called OM for the crown chakra.

The Solfeggio tuning fork set I bought recently are fairly inexpensive forks.

There are 9 in this set, their frequencies are:

• 174 Hz – Foundation
• 285 Hz – Quantum Cognition
• 369 Hz  - UT
• 417 Hz – Re
• 528 Hz – MI
• 639 Hz – FA
• 741 Hz – SOL
• 852 Hz – LA
• 963 Hz – Numinous Accord

Expect to pay at least $7 to 12 per fork when bought in a set.  $25-50+ if bought individually online.

Here’s a video of me demonstrating the solfeggio tuning forks:

Musician Jezibel Decibel [Jandy Rainbow] (YouTube) has composed some fascinating soundscapes that utilize binaural beats combined with solfeggio arpeggios. Visit her website for tons of samples

BINAURAL BEATS are a scientifically proven brain entrainment process that slowly started to gain recognition after an article called, Auditory Beats in the Brain, by Dr Gerald Oster, was published in the October 1973 edition of Scientific America.
Binaural beats work by sending two different Hz frequencies, to each ear via stereo headphones causing the left and right Brain hemispheres to work in unison to hear a phantom frequency or third tone, the centred Hz difference between the two tones.

Listening to Binaural sounds without headphones doesn’t have the same effect on the brain.

Deepak Chopra:

“Quantum physics has found that there is no empty space in the human cell, but it is a teeming, electric-magnetic field of possibility or potential.”

We should be continuously teaching while assisting people. The old paradigm teaches us to keep the information among the professionals. The new paradigm is to share the information, and empower the client.
