www.voidspace.org.uk/psychology/resonance.shtmlbrain.web-us.com/ganzfeld.htmbrain.web-us.com/thescience.htmThe study of "brainwaves" has played a vital role in the understanding of how the brain and mind function. Discovered in the 1920s by German researcher Hans Berger, these tiny electrical signals mirror the shifting patterns of mental activity. They are measured by attaching special sensors, called electrodes, to the scalp; these pick up brainwave activity which is then measured by an instrument called an elec-troencephalograph, or EEG. Brainwave activity tends to fall into four groups: beta, alpha, theta and delta. These categories are associated with the rapidity of oscillation (frequency) of brainwaves. As it turns out, certain patterns of brainwave activity are also associated with specific mental states.
Beta is associated with normal, waking consciousness; attention directed towards the external environment. You are most likely in the "beta state" as you read this. Beta waves oscillate between approximately 14 and 30 times per second (Hz).
Alpha is relaxed, not thinking about anything in particular, sometimes a pleasurable feeling of "floating". Often dominant in certain kinds of meditation, alpha waves have for the past twenty years been associated with calm, lucid mental states (the "alpha state"). They are also often detected during dream sleep. Alpha waves oscillate between 9 and 13 times per second.
Theta Found in states of deep relaxation, theta activity is also associated with bursts of creative insight, twilight ("sleep") learning and vivid mental imagery. It is also found in more advanced meditators. Theta waves oscillate between 4 and 8 times per second.
Delta This slowest of brainwave activity, is found during deep dreamless sleep and sometimes in very experienced meditators. They oscillate between 1 and 3 Hz.
Your brainwave activity is constantly shifting and changing during the day and night. Virtually every form of mental and physical activity will cause changes in this activity. Abrupt, unexpected noises or other events will quickly alter your brainwave patterns. Even watching TV can dramatically alter brainwave activity in an undirected manner.

As for "hallucinogenic", here's what you get: At high flash frequencies (10 to 30 Hz or so), the eyes and/or the visual center of the brain generate all sorts of lines and swirly things and plaids and geometric patterns in red and blue and yellow. The pattern varies with the frequency and with how the lights are synchronized (both eyes together, or alternately). I found the patterns to be overwhelmingly brilliant the first time I used the device, but less so after I got used to it. (The human mind seems to have an infinite capacity for getting bored!)

ELF research is now Govt classified, particularly since the mid-
1960's when Hamer discovered behavioral effects as the result of
applied sinusoidal field gradients as low as 4 volts.

Q: What is a binaural beat frequency?
A: The makers of these tapes want to play sounds into your head that are exactly at the frequencies they want to entrain you to. The catch is, there isn't a human being alive or dead who can hear a 10 hertz "pitch" as one continuous sound. So they cheat: they play (for example) 450 Hz into one ear and 460 Hz into the other; theoretically this sets up a "beat frequency" of 10 Hz (460 - 450 = 10).
