🤦 It's probably every musician's worst nightmare: imagine yourself sitting on stage ready to play a concerto and the orchestra begins to perform a completely different piece...😮 That's exactly what happened to the great Maria João Pires in 1999 when she stepped in to replace another pianist on short notice. In a formidable tour de force performance, Pires changed course and miraculously didn't miss a beat of Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 20 (and not No. 23 like she had been expecting!) alongside Riccardo Chailly and the Concertgebouworkest. 🤦

I will let you in on a secret about Steven Spielberg‘s new movie.

The alien character uses sine-wave speech to communicate, something I’ve researched for over 45 years.

I can condition just about anyone with the right primer. I’ve used this in many projects and here on X. In the specimen video below, you will hear the primer twice, then you will hear the actual words, and then you will always hear it from that primer and other sentences that I can demonstrate.

In the Steven Spielberg movie, the speech is obscured in sign wave plus click sounds.

The interesting thing about sine-wave speech is that subliminal induction has been proven to be able to take place hidden within melodies and songs are words that can impact your choices from your subconscious.

We are living in interesting times .
