Re: [microsound] brainstem b.e.(was Heart Recording?)

 Hi, 

  I've done some work with body electricity; one doesn't have to insert any
probes , it does help to be in a 'certain state' ,however.

  Awhile ago somebody posted a link to an article about the sound of the
brain stem , and there's a neat little soundfile:

http://www.ipn.at/ipn.asp?BJE

 and I couldn't help noticing the' sonic similarities' between that file and
something I made with supercollider:

I seems possible to record body electricity and then reconstruct or recreate
the sounds which might be benefivial , perhaps make new friends that way...
