Hello everyone! My name is Alanna Luna, I am a UFO researcher and producer out of Tucson, AZ. I am a member of SETI & MUFON, and I would enjoy to hear everyone's thoughts about this movie I directed and produced. Let me know what you think! [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FY74AFQl2qQ |

:~) A lot of information to absorb, but nicely done. :~) I liked the trippy kaleidoscope at the end. :~)) The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

Nicely done. I find it interesting that Gordon liking the kaleidoscope ending. I felt it a waste of time. Were you looking for a comments on the production or on the data contained therein? |

Sorry, but it is a bunch of misleading information. I gave up watching when the narrator said all geometry is based on the number 60. Wrong. You should look in to the mystic implications of 2pi instead. |

Yes. All geometry such as regular polygons can also be described by the radian that is represented by the symbol rad. The base 60 is however more easy to use since it's can be factorized in so many ways. So π (pi) is the magic number, not 432. About frequences and sound. Radiowaves also:) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_frequency |

Nice production & an excellent narrating voice. |

All geometry is based on the number of things in the universe. I always say, it's not what things could be, but what things are that counts.... |

As an electrical engineer, I've been exposed to lots of math, especially as pertaining to frequency(ies). Also, as a musician, I was curious as to what 432 Hz would sound like on my bass viol (viola da gamba). Well, the jury is still out. Would like to hear a consort play a piece of music, with a1=432, and not either 440 or 415 (preferred, for early music instruments, unless they are obliged to play with keyboard or wind instruments). An interesting presentation, never-the-less. Thanks, for sharing, Alanna. |

As a followup, after passing this thread on to a friend who is knowledgeable in music history, etc. -- He said that 432 is a perfectly good A to use, but it was not the standard (there actually was no standard) in the 17th-18th centuries); it was approximately standard around 1800, and is still used today by some organizations, such as the Vienna Philharmonic (He thinks -- you might check on this.) |

I don't know if she was looking for comments on the math or on the production. She did say she was the producer. The production was pretty good. The math has all sorts of errors. Like Jim said 432 is a cord, but not of any great significance. Also most of the math uses rounded numbers. For example 360 days are used for a year, but a solar orbit is 365.256 days. The use of the Yuga and Mayan calendar are based on assumptions. Just too many holes. |

A friend of mine, who is a flautist has two rather old instruments, neither of which is tuned to 444. One is somewhat flat, by which I mean just over a semi tone flat. The other just a little bit sharp, possibly around 450. Both instruments are in tune with themselves. Obviously neither is of any use in an orchestral or chamber setting, even with other old instruments, but we have on a couple of occasions re-tuned my SG and done duets that way - I have to be very careful not to hit any big power chords or wind up the amp too far...
