BENEFICIAL SUBLIMINAL MUSIC

Summary/Abstract: The PhD study hereafter is a follow-up to the scientific dissertation titled “Subliminal Music” and published in Artes journal (Vol. 6, pp. 141-154), in which the harmful impact of subliminal messages hidden in musical speech has been debated. The present study, Benefic Subliminal Music, describes the usage of subliminal music set to incur beneficial effects on the human mind and body through the Binaural Beats technology and Hemi-Sync technology. The Binaural Beats technology was discovered by the German physicist Heinrich Wilhelm Dove (1803–1879) in 1839 and tested on the encephalograph by the American biophysicist Gerald Oster (1918 – 1993) in 1973, at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York. This procedure represents a recent discovery in the musicotherapy field and a new brain training technique, studied and tested in many research centers and universities. The cerebral hemispheres synchronization technology Binaural Beats was applied by Robert Monroe (1915 – 1995) as Hemi-Sync sound technology by means of mixing cerebral wave frequencies with music, nature sounds, and verbal guidance to the result of something more than music – Metamusic. This acoustic alchemy put into practice has yielded significant results in creative capability development, learning processes acceleration, pain relief, anxiety and depression amelioration, as well as in relaxation, meditation, and hypnosis induction.
