the score within the body of the work is another voice within the context of it. So the music in
and of itself, really, over and over, enhances overall the project of the work. As we've done, as
we've seen with movies, we know that soundtracks can make all the difference in the world
regarding something's gotta give Penny Okay, so with that in mind, let's, let's go over Hemi
sync, how we do it in 2014. The number one we use regular carriers and classic bands, classic
beds when the conditions dictate, oftentimes with acoustic percussive works or the revamping
of old exercises. So what that means is, is that when we do some of the older stuff, and we
want to enhance it, we still use the face pink, we still use the Hemi sync, we still sort of create
the same kind of environment so that there's continuity between the old stuff and the new stuff.
Also, a lot of times When we get musical pieces, they're actually not appropriate for key
carriers, they're appropriate for having a more, shall we say static environment associated with
them. So we still sort of work on those particular containers if you will, in order to to project
what we want to with the with the other sounds that we have. Number two, we've got the keyed
carriers that we listened to a little bit. We can musically embed those key carriers within our
compass comm. compositions. It allows us for more more binaural beat characteristics and
also it allows us to investigate the nature of keys and what their effects are. I mean, it's, it's
really quite interesting, you can do Hemi sync and many different keys. And there's a body of
interest out there that suggests that the different keys are energizing of different particular
points, if you will, based upon the nature of the sound that you're listening to. So we're having
a lot of fun playing around with those elements as well. As noted, I speak to I spoke about the
musical scores already they are designed specifically for for the projects. And also, we've been
recording other acoustic items. And they they we try to find a real world sounds that lend
themselves to relaxation and contemplation. In my notes, here, I've got written down
shameless plug for stream Haven. Stream Haven is an exercise that I put together after having
an experience and a local stream. And I realized that there were so many components of it that
were natural yet. And lightning natural, let stress reduction to be able to sit in this body of
flowing living water, let your stress go downstream. And to create a quick environment so that
people could actually create the space for themselves and go back to this particular space
whenever and wherever they want to. You guys have never heard that before, I'm sure. But in
any event, what what I did was I went to the particular stream, and I recorded it, because I felt
like it had those intrinsic qualities in it that were already there for your sense of relaxation and
contemplation and adding the Hemi sync to it would just be the icing on the cake. So that will
be available this spring. And if you're of the mind, take a take a listen to it. Because that's also
sort of a simple representation of what we do, of creating something that that actually has
some value. But it's not necessarily something that it's incredibly complicated. It's important to
note here that we still follow Bob's formula or principles, if you will. When it comes to making
the Hemi sync, we really follow the rules created by him or suggestions created by him or
ratios created by him. As you all know, he's worked for countless hours years really to
establish these particular formulas. And to that event, it's those particular relationships that the
whole credibility and use of Hemi sync was established. So we want to we want to respect that
as much as we can. It's obvious to say that there are plenty of binaural beat producers out
there these days. Many of you have rolled through the institute, frankly. And it's
understandable we're not the only binaural beat restaurant in town. However Hemi sync is our
brand it is it is our restaurant, it's our food. It's what we create out of our kitchen. And we really
want to nurture protect and grow that brand to the best of our ability Okay, well so pressing on
and coupled with these other details are the effects of the audio analog digital revolution. I
brought I brought some other methods of audio transfer over the years. Got to have some
props the new science of the brain National Geographic incredible pictures fMRI structured
networks really cool stuff if you read it neither the pictures are really good. Let's talk about
some method showering. You guys remember this? Reel to reels baby. This is when I talked
about when we were kids and we come rolling on in there and Bob would be in the midst of all
of his equipment and he'd be playing with these babies. It's incredible.

Bob never didn't eh back you'll see that there's an actual size relationship that I'm trying to pull
off right here relatively unsuccessfully. But hey, this is what this is when we really got started
on the map, cassette tapes. In the bottom of the gatehouse, there used to be an imprinting
machine where actual Hemi sync exercises were manufactured there. And I can remember
there was like this, like gold paper stuff that did the imprinting thing, and it would melt and get
all turned up and everything like that. And so we would end up with a bunch of on a cassette.
And then, so we ended up going to digital audio tape. And that was kind of like the grooviest
thing. And one of the other things that you guys might not be aware of is that there was an
actual time where exercises were recorded on VHS tape, no video, just audio. It was another
intermediary step, much like the DAT that had a relatively short shelf life and then went on and
it's way by the, by the road of all of the other. Well, these guys CDs, we went to the CD thing,
and of course, you know, I think we're all of the particular generation where this is the this is
kind of like the new stuff. And it's groovy. And through through a decade or so this has been
our primary means of being able to put this stuff out into the world. And we really still do, when
it comes to I'm gonna talk about this in a minute. But when it comes to digital downloads
versus actual CDs, if you want the total enchilada of what we have to offer, get it on CD, it is
the purest form of what comes out of our shops. So digital downloads are great, and they're
convenient. And when you want the most bang for your buck. That's it, then we go down to
memory stick, thumb drive, it just keeps getting smaller and smaller does. And so what
happens is that a lot of times, we've spent times going from the particular dive devices to a
smaller electoral electronic device. And now we have the cloud. And so basically, we have no
device. And so you're a chess moving, you're basically moving in for information around from
one intangible method to another. And so that makes it really great. Because you know what,
for the young generation, this is, this is their world. They've got their apps, and they've got their
pictures in it, they got their music, and they got their brain in this thing. And so, to a certain
extent, it's incumbent upon us to be able to, to keep in step with that, it's hard, because what
happens is that there's always the newest, greatest thing. And so what happens is that you
end up trying to focus yourself into what you feel are the most appropriate avenues. And so, in
terms of Monroe products, and their activities, and all of this round, we've basically they've had
to gone from a physical business model into an intangible business model. And so that's been
that's been a tricky situation for us because you end up trying to meet the needs of a couple of
different masters in that sense. And so you find yourself trying to cover as much as you can,
but I can tell you that as our digital momentum grows and the volumes associated with that,
the inverse is taking place with with CDs and actual physical products. So it's one of those
kinds of things of when you feel the water rotten, you know, kind of leaving the bathtub, it's
time to get out of that Joker and find something else to do and so that's how we've been
pursuing that. So you know, the end the day where it used to be cassette tapes, now it's wav
files and so we're trying to keep in step with technology and all that has to offer to that and and
we have developed apps for iTunes. We also have some selections in the i in the iTunes
Store. We're on Amazon as well. I would be remiss if I didn't plug our new website that houses
a lot of materials. It's got our exercises in mp3 such that you can download them and please
check it out. Hemi sync.com Like a solid Facebook

Okay, well I've done I've done my diligence on that one. All right, well so let's let's move on to a
few research related endeavors that we've been involved with in the past few years. Currently
we have a study with the Army's department of research programs clinical clinical
investigations at Fort Belvoir Hospital in Virginia. The title of the study is binaural beat
technology a complimentary pass to post deployment wellness. At this time, there are 74
participants, Army nurses, in fact, who are listening to a certain version of Dreamland. It's a
metal music by Laura nashman and Michael moon. It contains the technology in some of the
exercises but not in the others. We loaded mp3 foot players for this issue. We numbered them
randomly and then kept the IDs for which ones were the metal music with Hemi sync and with
metal music without me saying here's a quick clip of Dreamland without him music
31:16
okie dokie and here's the Dreamland with Hemi sync subtle subtle distinction is it not? So
we're really to what
31:47
certainly hearable that I mean that leads into a whole other Chase Alice down the rabbit hole is
that is it necessary to be hirable for it to work? We I mean as far as we're from, from where we
sit, it's it needs to be terrible. But that's that's an interesting discussion in and of itself. I've have
a really cool email from Lieutenant Colonel Kent who is the Deputy Director of really groovy
army component thing that I'm not going to be able to remember I left the email my car, so I
can't read it. It's really supportive. If any actually I know Barbara, I know that you're you've
been busy doing a lot of stuff I'd be more than happy to cover this in more detail with you. I
actually with Bob as well and stuff like that, because these are the these are the activities that
we do is Hemi sync to continue upon the research endeavors that we can that we can manifest
under our own power. Elsewhere, Patty lava Does anybody remember Patty lava. She's an old
friend of TMI and Hemi sync. And what she's done is introduced metal music and to
convenience intranet. Meditation service, convenient is a huge health provider. And she's
involved with the outfit out and bought a Boulder, Colorado, and that health system, there is
2300 employees. And they also have a similar system back East. I think it's in Philly, Phil. And
they, they are actually creating an in house meditation service for their workers such that in
their cubicles, they can take a timeout for half an hour, 45 minutes and go to this particular site.
And I think we've got eight meta music titles that are up there. And I a couple of weeks ago, I
queried her to see if there was any groovy nuggets that I could pass on to you guys and fill out
my presentation. And I haven't heard back from her yet. But what I wanted to point out about
that is that this this particular event is not necessarily a research endeavor. You know, it's not a
research endeavor in the truest sense. But we want to maintain these kinds of actions.
Because through the review, we gain insight into what we can do to improve our product and
