How good are you at thinking paradoxically? — Athena

The only thinking I’m good at is not thinking.

...do you have any links to support these claims? — flannel jesus

This is a recent example of what I was referring to regarding the synchronization of heart beats and brainwaves among audience members of the same musical experience.

Phase locking is not energy. It is something which occurs in physical processes.

Are you sure it relates to what you were discussing earlier?

That's not entirely true. Brainwaves are energy, and hearts produce electrical atmospheres that others can detect.

Brainwaves are patterns in measured voltage. The voltage is not energy and it is the pattern of voltages that sync to the music.

Phase locking may not happen apart from dissipation of energy, but that is a somewhat different matter.

Wonderful study.

However, you said prior in the conversation that this couldn't be accounted for in materialism. Why not? Everything involved in this process interacts with each other materially. There's no fundamental reason why the cause of synchronised heart beats couldn't be physical. Sure, there's energy involved, but like, just normal energy that physicists talk about right?

A Youtube video presenting various sorts of natural synchronization.

about half way through but what a beautiful video.

I've seen quite a lot of veritasium, he's great at making all sorts of math and science things more interesting. Brilliant presenter.
