Listening in - how?

I related this fully manifested, nearly daily nocturnal journey into the dark parts of my mind. Yes, after. Not lucid ... yet.

Maybe a better question than how is "why?". To be truly happy. Better change results. State-of-the-art machine helping sentient beings.

Complex/Quantum


Quantum Biology? Navigation on relativistic scales - bird navigation, photosynethise etc.

Contemplating Inward

“A man will be imprisoned in a room with a door that's unlocked and opens inwards; as long as it does not occur to him to pull rather than push it”, Ludwig Wittgenstein.

A erudite friend alerted me to Wittengenstien some time ago. Had reason today to find about his works thanks to an article in the NYT.

Convergence Identified

Found interest on several occasions in New Yorker articles. In appeared in my news feed. Google knows this so when I search something, it sometimes "magically" appears.

Theory of Everything - Hawking tells the Prof. Dennis Sciama his subject for his PhD thesis: TIME.

Compassion Vector

Why would a person who had an aphasic stroke a couple of years ago be interested in the fundamental aspects of reality. Maybe because it is there and these days, it is far easier than before. But I would also argue that 'extended' mind can generate happiness in doing so.

I love myself when I help others. Making creativity attractive again is way of loving that is particularly appealing to me. Doing it with others of a like mind is, frankly, a gas.

Do Over

If one cannot correct a bad decision, so what?

Self-Transforming Minds
That is hardly ever the case if we consider deep facts like the quantum world we inhabit.

Entropy is ignorance according to expect like Max Tegmark. We don't know what we don't know so we underrate its significance. Decoherence has a limited horizon in the scheme of things that matter to us.

The trinity of subject, object and environment can be described by its communication flow between each element and the other two.

Tensor

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penrose_graphical_notation

What is my evolving working definition of a tensor? The connection was made in my mind by an article about DTI in brain imaging and Roger Penrose lecture on Twistors. Google and a friend helped me do it. Thanks to both.

Trust me, quantum consciousness and my brain incident are leading me on this quasi-magical path. The sound track - Suite Judy Blue Eyes (CSN). Traveling the neural tracts of a brain I am very familiar with - the only one.

I get feedback that my writing has "holes" in it - so to speak. Fortunately, I have the comment recorded so I can study it more carefully. Knowing some more about brain structure "feels" like it is a good approach (DTI brain imaging).

American Music


Listening to Jimmy Page talk about sound technology over the decades is something that deeply resonates with yours truly.

Even though I am still struggling to get my Oticon hearing instruments to get them working the way I know they can, I listened to Led Zeppelin on Apple Music with my studio monitors and the hearing aids.

Looking forward to getting the adjustments right, big time. The weak link is the programing for the Alta 2s. The technology is awesome, as my lifetime of background in sound machines attest. They know it and so do I. The solution is coming because we are motivated, competent and have our hearts is the right place.

Listening to Won't Get Fooled Again, Magic Bus, Pinball Wizard etc. (Who!) on Apple Music as I continue to write this.

I read an article suggesting I should listen to music in response to my brain injury - Seeing the Brain's Broken Cables in DiscoverMagazine.com It helps my write (after). I sent it to Jude.

Do Tell

Absent from posting to the log lately. Here is my story, and I am sticking’ to it.

What a hearing adventure I have been on. It started in April and it is now nearing the end of August.

Hammering and banging for weeks as we reside the house (Hibbard Studio). Last Saturday was the Hill family re-union in Portlandia, we met at the Studio. Then we went to McMenamin's Cornelius Pass Roadhouse where it was smokey from the wild fires to the east but was a hearing and culinary delight otherwise.

But the streamer to my hearing instrumens is still not working correctly. More evidence of a conspiracy which I passed along to Oticon Transactional Excellence Manager in New Jersey. She is working on a solution.

Hopeful.

Main Questions

Show a block diagram of how the chain of elements of signal processing work in the Alta-2 hearing instruments for Program 1 and Program 2 (named "Music"). Also show streamer input.

Verify that compression ratio for each frequency band is adjustable.

White Paper on Alta Core is fascinating.

No progress, again. Maybe someone is right.  I am being stonewalled.
