EMFs

Here is a lead to an interesting site:

The following is 'borrowed from ted ideas worth spreading:

'Pamelia Kurstin excavates a dusty artifact from the prehistoric strata of electronic music -- and demonstrates how to squeeze soul from an instrument you can't even touch.

The theremin, the first electronic instrument ever invented, was on the brink of historic oblivion when it was rescued from obscurity by director Steven Martin's classic 1994 documentary Theremin: An Electronic Odyssey . And while a few brave souls have sought to master this temperamental instrument since then, none have done so with more sly effervescence than Pamelia Kurstin.

From the rock-steady composure she assumes behind the instrument (necessary lest her breathing drive the sensors out of tune), one might presume a shrinking conservatory personality, but a quick glance at the MySpace page or website of the self-described "bird-punching rollerskating thereminist" will quickly dash any of these quaint notions. Far from being a quirky curiosity, however, Kurstin is a sensitive, emotional stylist capable of coaxing sublime melodic content out of an instrument usually doomed to B-movie sci-fi soundtracks. (And her walking bass imitation is pretty cool too.)

Born in Los Angeles, Kurstin currently resides in Vienna, and performs with acclaimed eccentric rockers Barbez, among many others. Her latest solo CD, Thinking Out Loud, was released in 2007 on John Zorn's legendary Tzadik label. She'll bathe your dog and give you a haircut ("if you're daring," she warns) in exchange for a six-pack.

"Eclectic barely cuts it. Like the more familiar chameleons, Josh Redman, Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Branford Marsalis and many others normally associated with jazz, electronica, even classical, Pam Kurstin represents the most recent version of the eclectic, improvising musician".'

Various models of the theremin.

In short, this instrument is a specially designed 'CD player' that has an aerial and electro-magnetic field device attached to it.  The volume and pitch of the prerecorded music is controlled by the EMF of the 'player'.  When playing the instrument, the player has to stand very still otherwise strange sound emanate from the theremin.

One of the things that is interesting to me is the sensitivity and power of the human EMF; in reality, our very thoughts and emotions affect not only others to whom we may direct our thoughts and emotions, irrespective of geographical location or distance between ourselves and the other person, but also, the power in those thoughts and emotions.  This is a phenomenon  is coming to the notice of more and more people all over the world today.

Another interesting thing is how the human EMF can be translated into sound, in this case using the theremin as a medium; EMFs, sound and light are all sectors varying in frequency on the electro-magnetic scale, no real surprise there.  We also know that sound translates into form; see cymatics.  So, logically,human EMFs translate into form and manifest in action.  Our thoughts and emotions generate EMFs and also therefore, manifest in form and action.  Again, no suprise; in this case I refer in the first instance to Cleve Bakster and Dr Masaru Emoto for their work with emotions and how they affect plants and water.

It is towards exploring and developing this field of study that this blogsite is devoted.  It is important to note at this stage that when working with EMFs it is impossible to do harm to ourselves or others, or even, to other EMFs in other form.  This is a Law of the Universe; EMFs work only for beneficial good.
