Sound is Form

[From the Italian language press]:

La voce è il suono che caratterizza ogni essere umano, rendendolo unico e irripetibile.

Questa frequenza si stabilizza dopo la pubertà e rimane costante per tutta la vita.

Biblio-net Musica Classica, Italy - martedì 2 ottobre 2007 - di Bruno Oddenino

The voice is the sound that characterizes every human being, making him unique and unrepeatable.

This frequency is stabilizing after puberty and remains constant for the whole life.

In India, in the village of Shivapur, there is a small mosque dedicated to the sufi saint Qamar Alì Dervish: in its courtyard there is a 138 pounds stone [62 Kg].

During the daily prayer, eleven faithfuls encircle the stone repeating the name of the saint: when they catch up a determined degree of intensity, the eleven men raise the stone each using a single finger, and when the song is interrupted the faithfuls jump beside while the stone, back to its weight, falls to earth with a loud thud.

Although in order to understand it we decode the sound in frequency and number, the sound is not that: rather, it is information -in the etymological sense of the word (that it creates shape).

Every man is a rope that vibrates in the Universe.

The author is Professor of Oboe in the Conservatory "Giuseppe Verdi" of Turin; he also holds a degree in Musicotherapy, System Nada - Brahma (school of Vemu Mukunda) and is a Founder of the Italian Academy of Vibrational Medicine.
