@111error,

You do understand this is a fictional game grounded in reality, right? I am (for fun) discussing the scientific backing so that those who enjoy learning about this stuff can discuss it as well.

@macbethinabathtub,

There’s tons of naturally occurring ways of creating infrasound, like storms, earthquakes, and animals), and these can be recorded and played back with pretty standard, albeit more expensive, headphones. To play it, you’d just need a larger subwoofer.

To record is pretty easy, you just need the right microphone. Here’s…[Read more]

Here’s the Wiseman talk: http://www.nbcnews.com/id/3077192/#.WPF2htLytO8

And here’s a good research paper entitled “The Ghost in The Machine” by Vic Tandy and Tony Lawrence: http://www.richardwiseman.com/resources/ghost-in-machine.pdf

And a second entitled “Something in the Cellar” by the same authors:…[Read more]

@111error, I stated that “frequency can be hidden within other sounds and is undetectable to humans.” There’s plenty of research where where this sound is added to an audio track and the control and experimental groups are indistinguishable from each other.

I’m glad you got a call @electrichippo. The more personal, the better.

Lucy, you got some splainin’ to do!

@taysavestheday

I read the same email address as you @electrichippo; and sent one as well! Great minds think alike.

@shaun @macbethinabathtub; he’s going to have some hate mail in the morning!

@thebuz,

Timothy Granik Jr.

Who was not one of the people in the previous email. Those were Douglas Marrow, Brian Blattman, Melanie Aberdeen, and Macy Jones.

Thanks @kevin, following as well!

@jay956, Macy was Sarah (The System)’s Executive Assistant. She messed up an email to @mkarrett where she revealed some secrets, including other names and that Noah is better off outside the System. With that kind of screw up, people assumed she’d wind up dead or at least fired.

Following her! Eager for 10pm! Thanks @sfire8!

I am just getting out of a PDP training that went all day today. I made sure to step out at 1pm to take this call today though. The content of my call went very similar to the other posts people had today. Kristen called me because Stacey was busy. She was very enthusiastic and had a pleasant voice. It was infectious. It made me more chipper as an…[Read more]

Piggybacking on what @clairebuch was noticing, I found it very interesting that she referred to me as Dr. Winters from the start. Not Taylor, not Mr. Winters, which are what I usually get. She went straight for a sign of respect that she knew would resonate with me and get me to like her right away.

She’s clever. I’m keeping note of that.
