Most controversial clip on the internet right now?

Hi,

I think this is the only place where I can have a proper discussion about this topic.

This clip is going somewhat viral:

Now I, personally, can totally see this being true. I did not look deeply enough into it but I have seen a lot of things about sound changing matter, etc.

Asmon, of course, ridiculed him, because he is under the impression, like many, if the scientific method cannot explain it (yet), it ain’t real.

So what do you guys think of it?
Seen similar things?
Anything on the topic at all?

This is NOT about conspiracy theories, even though the video is titled that way. It’s about science, sound, matter, and other methods of creation than just the hard sciences.

So keep it civil

Cheers

Dividing light frequencies in 2 each time does NOT get you back into “sound”. It would just get you into the VLF and eventually ELF radio spectrum.

Sound and Electromagetic Waves aren’t even the same at all lol.

I was trying to make sense of what he said in that clip, but that part just made me be like “NEWP!”

HAHAHA you’re cheating, it isn’t a fair argument, throwing a bunch of cuties in our faces!!!

No, I don’t think the ridicule that he receives is as simple as:

“can’t be explained by scientific method? /ridicule”.

There’s a thing called context.

When someone comes out of nowhere and says that something as fundamental and firmly established as the periodic table is flawed and that they intend on rebuilding it - then skepticism is natural.

When their points don’t hold up against the level of what they’re claiming or attempting to challenge - then dismissal is natural, and often even ridicule.

Common sense tells me that he’s drastically oversimplifying connections between sound, matter, and light. It’s not as simple as dividing by a factor of 2.

Joe Rogan shouldn’t have had to ask him what he meant by “tone”. If he was intellectually grounded, he would know that most people would have zero clue about what he was referring to with such a vague word within the context.

If someone tells you that Hydrogen and Carbon have the same “tone” and they assume that you understand what they mean unless you request clarification, then that means they’re not grounded in intellectual communication. If they’re not grounded in intellectual communication, then that is a massive chink in the armor of their ideas, understandings, and clarities. That alone is a massive red flag.

Tendency to ridicule rises when you check their background. An extremely sketchy educational history.

“On February 26, 2013, Howard said on Jimmy Kimmel that he had earned a PhD degree in chemical engineering from South Carolina State University that year. He however never attended that university and in fact SCSU does not confer doctorates in chemical engineering.”

What is this? Let’s be real, lol.

Then you find out that this isn’t his first rodeo. He displays consistency of bizarre beliefs such as in 2015:

“claims he formulated his own language of logic, which he called “Terryology”, and which he was keeping secret until he had patented it. This logic language, he claimed, would be used to prove the statement “1 × 1 = 2”. “How can it equal one?” he said.

He’s ridiculed because of everything combined. It’s important to be grounded enough to see that.

I am willing to bet a billion dollars that this man is either messing around with psychoactive drugs, or has used them in the past. A billion dollars, and I don’t even know him. I’ve met people in life who have messed around with those type of drugs, claim to have weird experiences, and then suddenly think they have the solutions to everything and go way over board. This guys vibe is identical to that.

This in my opinion, is just another useless mainstream distraction from another quack, that offers nothing of value towards my goals or reality. Such is often the case with viral clips.

Nothing controversial about what he says. Ran into couple of clips of his, here and there, and, well, to keep it short, they sound right if you’re high, or maybe dumb. He lost me with that video of 1×1=2 or something. He took multiple lines of thinking to justify his case, clearly showing no understanding of mathmatics. And rightly so, how often does the young student question or try to understand the reason behind what they’re doing, and how often do they get shutdown for trying to actually learn.

It made me think of Natural frequencies of elements. I’ve had a book as a teenager that had something on it. I don’t think I have it anymore.

Basically, it says that atoms (or their electrons) vibrate at a certain frequency.

All I found with a quick Google was this

Textblock

Atoms and molecules contain electrons. It is often useful to think of these electrons as being attached to the atoms by springs. The electrons and their attached springs have a tendency to vibrate at specific frequencies. Similar to a tuning fork or even a musical instrument, the electrons of atoms have a natural frequency at which they tend to vibrate. When a light wave with that same natural frequency impinges upon an atom, then the electrons of that atom will be set into vibrational motion. (This is merely another example of the resonance principle introduced in Unit 11 of The Physics Classroom.) If a light wave of a given frequency strikes a material with electrons having the same vibrational frequencies, then those electrons will absorb the energy of the light wave and transform it into vibrational motion. During its vibrations, the electrons interacts with neighboring atoms in such a manner as to convert its vibrational energy into thermal energy. Subsequently, the light wave with that given frequency is absorbed by the object, never again to be released in the form of light. So the selective absorption of light by a particular material occurs because the selected frequency of the light wave matches the frequency at which electrons in the atoms of that material vibrate. Since different atoms and molecules have different natural frequencies of vibration, they will selectively absorb different frequencies of visible light.

So, if this actually a thing, you could consider the frequency of the atom as another methodology to sort elements.

But this guy speaks of something completely different.

And yeah, this guy sounds a bit spaced off. A musician I know said I need to smoke some weed to really understand his music. Might be the same case here.

Btw, is this the guy from Ironman?

This concept has been explored in a project that transformed these spectral lines into audible tones, creating a unique “aural periodic table” where each element’s signature sound can be heard

Thank you. Awesome context.

I wasn’t even talking about the guy (yes from Iron Man 1) in the video, but the concept itself. So thanks for keeping it on topic.

Imma be reading a bit :smiley:

You can find the full interview in a number of places, it’s several hours long. I only made it about an hour and a half or so into it.

The material he’s basing most of his physics on is that of Walter Russell, who I’ve mentioned on my IG journal recently. Russell’s material itself is very interesting; he was a man whose method of operation was to unite himself with the Creator through his own version of prayer in order to more fully express the creative potential of the human mind/body. He saw genius as being the result of this connection to God, which some have dimly projected nowadays through this concept of the flow state.

What I found the most interesting in this guys work was the use of the negative space in between the circles within the Flower of Life, or a novel way of using the Flower/Seed to create unions of wave fronts that are not pure platonic solids, such as his model of hydrogen he shows in the first half of the video. The main problem however with his work is the definitions of words that he adopts. It’s clear his command of the English language isn’t the best for communicating ideas like this.

Russell’s work definitely has validity, although there are so many different interpretations of it. He uses non technical language and was not a mathematician so there were no equations provided. I actually enjoyed Glenn Clark’s biography on the man more than some of his writings themselves.

I see Terrence as more of a curiosity myself, he’s come up with some cool visualisations, but then so did Dan Winter / HeartMath back in the day and his writing style left much to be desired. I’d say study the ideas they’re presenting in their original form and come to your own conclusions.

EDIT: And I reckon there are quite a few clips on the internet I’ve seen recently that are more controversial than that :wink: but we won’t go there, lol
