Quiggle computers, deliberate madness.

Keith Austin, Sarn's good friend, says:

Hi, Sarn. Feedback loops of the audio kind would not work in the brain, as
the brain, as you pointed out in your previous email, is a hypercomputer.
But what COULD happen is a floating instability of the natural wave rhythms.
The brain's electrical rhythms are designed to maintain synchrony between
the different working areas; defects in this synchrony result in bizarre
symptoms ranging from epilepsy to permanent autism, dylexia, and scotoma.
It's like a parallel computer cable with one defective wire - because one
bit per byte doesn't arrive, the rest of the data travelling through the
computer is scrambled and unreadable. Biofeedback experiments have shown
that the brain, on detecting a regular sensory rhythm (pulsing sound,
regularly flashing light, etc) automatically shifts its own rhythms to avoid
locking phase with the external one, to maintain its delicate internal
synchrony. If the, say, flashing light is artificially synchronised with the
brain's rhythm (using a biofeedback machine), the brain can't get its
internal rhythm away from the external one - it can't desynchronise - and
violent epilepsy results, even in a subject not prone to epilespy. This is
why, as a stage musician, I will not allow my band to use disco strobes. And
why I shall caution you in the use of biofeedback equipment for producing
music. For the good of one's mental health, I would recommend limited use
only of true biofeedback in brain-generated audio; a safer way would be to
break the feedback loop by not permitting the subject to listen to the
sounds in real time. Sorry about the lecture, but I thought it's a good time
to raise this health issue. Yours, Keith.

Sarn Reply's:

And scitzophrenia, with LSD_25 type effects also-could explain the "flashback"
phenominon that some people get on lysergic acid di-ethyl amide, and,
also, some HIGHLY sensitive people who get "marijuana flashbacks", these
whilst not NEARLY as strong, or anywhere near as long term as the LSD ones
can scare the individual.

Thus so, this may clearly illustrate the phenominon of "chaos" within the
brain's
chemistry,-a type of aperiodic non-linear behaviour exhibited in complex non-
linear dynamical systems.

I'm sure one could train themselves NOT to have epeliptic fits-and there may
be, JUST
may be, a "vaccine efect" in this, like the "ear of the dog that niped you",
you might be able to build up a tolerance to epilepsy-altho I'm only guessing.

I still wounder about the effects of a rainbow colored strobe at different
periods of light duration, e.g.:

O 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1

As for this so-called: "lecture", GIVE ME MORE!!!!!!!!!!!

In real time, well, I always was an extremist.

It'll be hard NOT to stop me now, from going ahead and doing this!!!!!!

Anyway, I was thinking about "trinary computers", using digital AND analogue
switches, which each of the A/D dichotomy can be defined on each other in an
endless circuit.

0, mabey, 1

0, 1/2, 1

Also, my "Quiggle computers", whereby:

Bits information=2&n, &=All permutations of power sequence with their
non-commutative propertys.

Thus, where n=....(x^(x^x)), we have:

2&5 2&4 2&3 2&2 2&1 2&0
2^16 16 4 2 1/(2^(1/2))
=2^25536 =65536

"Loads 'O room".

Mabey "Quantum superpositional"????? :o)

Thanks for the feedback, Keith!!!!!

Looking foward for more!!!!!!!

P.S.

What about 3 way feedback?????
