Audio as a weapon


I would like to deviate a bit from the normal audio equipment conversation and delve into the phenomenon of the recent audio "weapon" that appears to have been deployed in Cuba upon State Department employees and now, it appears, in China. I know that very low frequency can be dreadful to listen to but anyone out there have any ideas with regard to how audio could be used as a weapon? It is not my intention to draw speculation of a political nature, I am only interested in the technical aspect of audio as a "weapon". Anyone have any thoughts?

Pop Quiz - Does a photon have mass?
More like: Does mass bother to involve itself with photons?

Think of mass as an aftereffect of the frame of reference......

Same for gravity. And time.

Ergo the speed of light is finite, and as a wall (constant).... but only in the frame of reference.

~~~~

Put the whole question and answer set on backward, and see where the train of thought takes you....

There is research that finds the speed of light to not be constant or as a limit. We have it as a stable data point, yes. (lots of experiments in this area)

And we have dimensional models, where the constants are not the fundamentals that they are ’here’ (so to speak).

And we have the violations, happening all over the place, bits of oddities, here and there...throughout pretty well all branches of science, these anomalies exist. As well as existing in places science is uncomfortable with. Millions of examples. (Reality is not limited by objective models. But science is)

Ie ’dark matter’ may not be anything but a dimensional placeholder, a spacer where the translation into Einsteinian reality is bridged, across a dimensional fulcrum. As dark matter is not following the rules and it’s protrusion or act of being is also causing problems in the current standard model itself.

If one starts going down that road of trying to figure this out, then they might find themselves arriving at Musk’s conclusion of this not being a fundamental reality, that the odds of this place ’we all understand as being reality’ being the ultimate original frame of reference.. the odds of that..are so close to zero that it is not worth bothering with the idea. (billions to one, is the deal. This is what the meta-studies of the 'compleat' extant/emergent science says. Ie, not where we've been, but where we're going, intellectually and in observation of our space)

History, ie, the past, and unidirectional time, and an unknown future...this violates energy conservation laws as an idea and observation, alone. If the universe is symmetrical, energy wise, thermodynamics, and so on, then unidirectional time cannot exist, as unidirectional time inherently indicates an asymmetrical frame. To paraphrase Dire straits, "Two theories say they are Jesus, one of them must be wrong..."

Then it really gets strange, as this above....is the simple stuff. The cheap seats.
Audio as a weapon.
Of course, I would give up at one when I would be forced

- to listen to records via Garrard Turntable
or
- to listen to records via MySonic Lab Cartridges
or
- when someone would read reviews loudly for hours and hours from J.Valin & A. Dudley
or
- they will show me a Pair of Magicos connected to Pass Amps

... I would say everything "they" want to hear

Ah, a self taught theoretical physicist. Good on ya, mate! 🙄

One does not have to wear an earned label (degree, doctorate, etc) to be able to analyze. But it does help.

If only people with earned degrees and doctorates can comment or be allowed to think and express, then it’s possible to consider it as some form of dictatorial religion, at it’s most ugly. "The council speaks for all of you", kind of insanity.

OTOH, those who don’t understand it can also make a mess of things when they try and express via whatever means they may employ.

The solution is not evident, in any event. Humanity meanders, I guess you could say.
The death of having/being perfect order ...and the death of unmitigated chaos where coherence of any kind cannot emerge. Both are utterly useless for the idea and expression of life.

Meandering in a soup of ordered individuality ..which is pretty well all we’ve got that keeps us alive and moving.

"Music is the same. All the fantasy you want - But with order."
Music is important to humanity. Fundamental in fact. One informs the other. Which is why manipulation of the music generas can be so effective. Akin to interrupting the ego loop.
