Freefall: further to your interesting post regarding memory being passed down through DNA, I found this in this morning’s headlines:
-
BlueWren .. Graham Hanc ock has ALWAYS insisted that we are a civilization that has been extremely traumatized by an event that occurred eons ago .. That has always fascinated me .. With this new research .. things are beginning to make more sense .. Much appreciated .. and thanks for posting .. 🙂
-
I wonder if some of our dreams and nightmares are DNA memories.
-
Again .. EVERYTHING is connected .. we may not understand it but none the less .. ALL is connected .. INTERLOCKED ..
-
-
-
It is a very interesting find, but the only thing this experiment proves conclusively is that RNA may be used to store certain relatively constant but changing parameters, such as the reaction time to certain stimuli by way of regulation of the secretion of certain chemicals, for example. So I would not generalize from THERE to MEMORY.
-
And one more thing: anything stored in RNA affects every cell of the body hence useful for any kind of reaction that requires synchronization at the cell level. Memories that are not essential for survival, basically our every day ego-memories, have no reason to be stored in RNA.
-
My interest in the article piqued after reading the last paragraph which indicates there is a plan afoot:
” Science and tech publication Futurism summed up the research, writing: “We’re still a way off from becoming a karate black belt simply by injecting some RNA into our necks, or downloading sweet dance moves directly to our minds. But we may…[Read more]

Early Baroque (Late Renaissance?) passacaglia for lute. As for the lute being eclipsed by the classical guitar, I share much of JPF’s thoughts about the harpsichord being neglected for the piano. The lute has a mellow yet crisp timbre, and upon attack and sustain sounds much cleaner than guitar (which can sound rather clumsy by comparison). I…[Read more]

I wish the above video had better sound quality. This is another good performance of it with better sound:
-
I agree… I’d rather hear things composed for lute ON the lute, and I do prefer the sound to the guitar.
-
Dr Farrell, I am not sure, but I think the reason why original instruments were/are not used that much has more to do with finding talented/virtuoso players of such instruments (and those instruments can be extremely expensive). The tuning of the instruments of that era is also a very delicate thing that must be done right (and may not please all…[Read more]
-
It is true that such instruments are more expensive, and hence, more difficult to learn, because they are hand crafted. And it is also true that the tempering systems for tuning them are known to a few people. But still, I think part of it is the mass production effect… and the resulting lazy ears….

We are still waiting for a little taster of the new Pipe Organ!

Or is China buying them all up?

It is not here yet. If if ever DOES get you I will let everyone know.

Playing a period instrument like the violin with a different temperament or tuning than the contemporary one is a real challenge regardless of whether the instrument is hand-crafted or not, because the violin does not have frets.
P.S. In middle-eastern music (Turkey, Iran, Arab world) the violin is one of the few instruments that can be used…[Read more]-
A simple but charming example of Persian-tuned piano composition:
(In Iran, the santur or dulcimer has always been very popular, and it sound a bit like the harpsichord, which explains the Iranian interest in piano)

With today’s call for fresh elections the “5 star movement” has most likely given in to globalist pressure (their current leader Mr DiMaio expresses admiration for Macron & Merkel) after deluding their potential voters into believing that they wanted to stop impositions from Brussels and Berlin. But if this re-do of elections actually takes place,…[Read more]

I think you will enjoy your trip to Oz. CAF seems to like it here as she has been here many times.
Uluru is the aboriginal name for Ayres Rock, your not going to believe how big it is.

Whoo Hoo! Made the long flight to Sydney in order to see the many sights in Australia that I have been wanting to see for most of my life. Will be in Uluru with CAF so if there are other Gizers who plan to be there, looking forward to a “g’day mate”.

You can count on it. (I would say more but apparently talking about birds and no wonder CAF likes it here seems to have inappropriate words attached.)
