Suppressed Inventions and Other Discoveries (45 page)

The brain is able to detect phase differences of two microseconds. We were able to confirm this at Tufts University. The pinnae or outer ear is a "phase-encoding" array that generates a time-ratio code that is used by the brain to localise the source of sounds in 3-D space. The localization time ratios are run from two microseconds to several milliseconds. A person with one ear can localize sound sources (non-linear) to a 5 degree angle of accuracy anywhere in space. You can test this by closing your eyes while having a friend jingle keys in space around your head. With you eyes closed you can follow the keys and point to them very accurately. Try to visualize where the keys are in relation to your head. With a little practice, you can accurately point directly at the keys with your eyes closed. If you try to localize a sine wave, the experiment will not work. The signal must be non-linear in character. You can localize the sine wave if the speaker has a nonlinear or distortion in the output wave form. A sine wave cannot be localized because phase differences in a sine wave are very hard to detect. The brain will focus on the distortion and use it to measure time ratios. Clicks or pulses are very easy to localize.

If you distort your pinnae by bending the outer ears out of shape, your ability to localize the sound source is destroyed. The so-called cocktail party effect is the ability to localize voices in a noisy party. This is due to the brain's ability to detect phase differences and then pay attention to localized areas in 3-D space. A favorite "intelligence" trick is to have sensitive conversations in "hard rooms" with wooden walls and floors. A microphone "bug" will pick up all the echoes and this will scramble the voice. Almost all embassies contain "hard rooms" for sensitive conversations. If you put a microphone in the room with a duplicate of the human pinnae on top of it, you will be able to localize the speakers and tune out the echoes—just like you were at a party.

In order to localize whales and dolphins under water, we used metal ears 18 inches in diameter that were attached to hydrophores. When these ears were placed under water, we were able to accurately localize underwater sounds in 3-D space by listening to the sounds by earphones. We used this system to localize whales and dolphins. Sound travels five times faster under water, so we made the "pinnae" larger to give the same timeratio encoding as we find in the air. We also made large plastic ears that were tested in Vietnam. These ears were of the same proportions as real ears but were much larger. They enabled us to hear distant sounds with a high degree of localization accuracy in the jungle. It seems that we can adapt to ears of almost any size. The reason we can do this is because sound recognition is based on a time-ratio code.

We were able to reverse the process and could take any sound recording and encode it so that sounds were perceived as coming from specific points in space. Using this technique, we could spread out a recording of an orchestra. The effect added reality as if you were actually listening to a live concert. This information has never been used commercially except in one instance when I allowed The Beach Boys to record one of their albums with my special "laser" microphones.

We developed a special Neurophone that enabled us to "hear" dolphin sounds up to 250 thousand Hertz. By using the Neurophone as part of the man-dolphin communicator, we were able to perceive more of the intricacies of the dolphin language. The human ear is limited to a 16 kHz range, while dolphins generate and hear sounds out to 250 kHz. Our special Neurophone enabled us to hear the full range of dolphin sounds.

As a result of the discovery of the encoding system used by the brain to localize sound in space and also to recognize speech intelligence, we were able to create a digital Neurophone.

When our digital Neurophone patent application was sent to the patent office, the Defense Intelligence Agency slapped it under a secrecy order. I was unable to work on the device or talk about it to anyone for another five years.

This was terribly discouraging. The first patent took twelve years to get, and the second patent application was put under secrecy for five years.
The digital Neurophone converts sound waves into a digital signal that matches the time encoding that is used by the brain. These time signals are used not only in speech recognition but also in spatial recognition for the 3-D sound localization.
The digital Neurophone is the version that we eventually produced and sold as the Mark XI and the Thinkman Model 50 versions. These Neurophones were especially useful as subliminal learning machines. If we play educational tapes through the Neurophone, the data is very rapidly incorporated into the long-term memory banks of the brain.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The skin is our largest and most complex organ. In addition to being the first line of defence against infection, the skin is a gigantic liquid crystal brain.

The skin is piezoelectric. When it is vibrated or rubbed, it generates electric signals and scalar waves. Every organ of perception evolved from the skin. When we are embryos, our sensory organs evolved from folds in the skin. Many primitive organisms and animals can see and hear with their skin.

When the Neurophone was originally developed, neurophysiologists considered that the brain was hard-wired and that the various cranial nerves were hard-wired to every sensory system. The eighth cranial nerve is the nerve bundle that runs from the inner ear to the brain. Theoretically, we should only be able to hear with our ears if our sensor organs are hard-wired. Now the concept of a holographic brain has come into being. The holographic brain theory states that the brain uses a holographic encoding system so that the entire brain may be able to function as a multiple-faceted sensory encoding computer. This means that sensory impressions may be encoded so that any part of the brain can recognize input signals according to a special encoding. Theoretically, we should be able to see and hear through multiple channels.

The key to the Neurophone is the stimulation of the nerves of the skin with a digitally encoded signal that carries the same time-ratio encoding that is recognised as sound by any nerve in the body.

All commercial digital speech recognition circuitry is based on so-called dominant frequency power analysis. While speech can be recognised by such a circuit, the truth is that speech encoding is based on time ratios. If the frequency power analysis circuits are not phased properly, they will not work. The intelligence is carried by phase information. The frequency content of the voice gives our voice a certain quality, but frequency does not contain information. All attempts at computer voice recognition and voice generation are only partially successful. Until digital time-ratio encoding is used, our computers will never be able to really talk to us.

The computer that we developed to recognize speech for the man-dolphin communicator used time-ratio analysis only. By recognising and using time-ratio encoding, we could transmit clear voice data through extremely narrow bandwidths. In one device, we developed a radio transmitter that had a bandwidth of only 300 Hz while maintaining crystal clear transmission. Since signal-to-noise ratio is based on band width considerations, we were able to transmit clear voice over thousands of miles while using milliwatt power.

Improved signal-processing algorithms are the basis of a new series of Neurophones that are currently under development. These new Neurophones use state-of-the-art digital processing to render sound information much more accurately.

ELECTRONIC TELEPATHY?

The Neurophone is really an electronic telepathy machine. Several tests prove that it bypasses the eighth cranial nerve or hearing nerve and transmits sound directly to the brain. This means that the Neurophone stimulates perception through a seventh or alternate sense.

All hearing aids stimulate tiny bones in the middle ear. Sometimes when the eardrum is damaged, the bones of the inner ear are stimulated by a vibrator that is placed behind the ear on the base of the skull. Bone conduction will even work through the teeth. In order for bone conduction to work, the cochlea or inner ear that connects to the eighth cranial nerve must function. People who are nerve-deaf cannot hear through bone conduction because the nerves in the inner ear are not functional.

A number of nerve-deaf people and people who have had the entire inner ear removed by surgery have been able to hear with the Neurophone.
If the Neurophone electrodes are placed on the closed eyes or on the face, the sound can be clearly "heard" as if it were coming from inside the brain. When the electrodes are placed on the face, the sound is perceived through the trigeminal nerve.
We therefore know that the Neurophone can work through the trigeminal or facial nerve. When the facial nerve is deadened by means of anaesthetic injections, we can no longer hear through the face.
In these cases, there is a fine line where the skin on the face is numb. If the electrodes are placed on the numb skin, we cannot hear it but when the electrodes are moved a fraction of an inch over to skin that still has feeling, sound perception is restored.
This proves that the means of sound perception via the Neurophone is by means of skin and not by means of bone conduction.
There was an earlier test performed at Tufts University that was designed by Dr. Dwight Wayne Batteau, one of my partners in the U.S. Navy Dolphin Communications Project. This test was known as the "Beat Frequency Test." It is well known that sound waves of two slightly different frequencies create a "beat" note as the waves interfere with each other. For example, if a sound of 300 Hz and one of 330 Hz are played into one ear at the same time, a beat note of 30 Hz will be perceived. This is a mechanical summation of sound in the bone structure of the inner ear. There is another beat phenomenon known as the binaural beat. In the binaural beat, sounds beat together in the corpus callosum in the center of the brain. This binaural beat is used by Robert Monroe of the Monroe Institute to stimulate altered states. That is, to entrain the brain into high alpha or theta states.
The Neurophone is a powerful brain-entrainment device. If we play alpha or theta signals directly through the Neurophone, we can entrain any brain state we like. In a future article we will tell how the Neurophone has been used as a subliminal learning device and also as a behavior modification system.
Batteau's theory was that if we could place the Neurophone electrodes so that the sound was perceived as coming from one side of the head only, and if we played a 300 Hz signal through the Neurophone, if we also played a 330 Hz signal through an ordinary headphone we would get a beat note if the signals were summing in the inner ear bones.
When the test was conducted, we were able to perceive two distinct tones without a beat. This test again proved that Neurophonic hearing was not through the means of bone conduction.
When we used a stereo Neurophone, we were able to get a beat note that is similar to the binaural beat, but the beat is occurring inside the nervous system and is not a result of bone conduction.
The Neurophone is a "gateway" into altered brain states. Its most powerful use may be in direct communications with the brain centers, thereby bypassing the "filters" or inner mechanisms that may limit our ability to communicate to the brain.
If we can unlock the secret of direct audio communications to the brain, we can unlock the secret of visual communications. The skin has receptors that can detect vibration, light, temperature, pressure and friction. All we have to do is stimulate the skin with the right signals.
We are continuing Neurophonic research. We have recently developed other modes of Neurophonic transmission. We have also reversed the Neurophone and found that we can detect scalar waves that are generated by the living system. The detection technique is actually very similar to the process used by Dr. Hiroshi Motoyama in Japan. Dr. Motoyama used capacitor electrodes very much like those we use with the Neurophone to detect energies from the various chakras.

The Suppression of
UFO Technologies
and
Extraterrestrial
Contact

The UFO question carries with it the baggage of centuries of speculation as to the very nature of who we are and how we got here. It calls into question conventionally accepted theories of evolution, and has the potential to unravel and invalidate many of our most cherished beliefs in the supremacy of the human species on the evolutionary ladder. Reports of sightings and abductions have unearthed new quandaries concerning government involvement with alien visitors, and the extensive cover-up of these stories by various governments. Clearly the human race has a propensity for avoiding and/or denying uncomfortable information. We attempt to support our fractured and failing paradigms with what, at best, can be considered an amazing display of obstinacy.

It is no wonder that the Brookings Institute was commissioned in the 1950s to study and report on the implications to the social fabric of the revelation that we are "not alone." Sadly, the possibility of extraterrestrial life has highlighted the persistence of the various scientific establishments in cozying up to military money and perquisites at the expense of their science, their ethics, and in the end, their self-respect. Those skeptics curious enough to investigate may find that the UFO information unfolding in the past few decades has been very, very carefully managed so as to achieve the desired results.
