【實用音樂app】Cryosleep Brainwave Generator|最夯免費app-綠色工廠好玩App

Due to bureaucratic retardation in Europe this app is no longer sold. (Unless you want to shell out a lot of money. But really: just don't buy it.) The only reason it is still listed is because people who bought it should still have access to it, even if they uninstalled the app by accident.

I have a fascination with brainwaves and the idea that an external impulse can modify the carrier wave of your EEG. Obviously, this is not far fetched (a fist in your face will affect your behavior as well), but that an appropriate sound has the ability to systemically affect the working of your brain fascinates me.

When I looked around for brainwave generators, I found very few useful programs, mainly because the generation of a binaural beats requires the generation of two frequencies. One at, for instance 440 Hz, which is played in the left ear, and one at 444 Hz, which is then played in the right ear. If those two waves were superimposed, one would hear a 4Hz beating. However, when these waves are presented to each ear individually, the brain must process the difference and will start working at 4 Hz.

Of course, who wants to listen to a pure tone at 440 Hz ? I don't, and I cannot believe that such a dry tone would be the most efficient method to synchronize the brain. Consequently, I made a program that should offer the better brainwave: Cryosleep.

Cryosleep lets you play an MP3 of your choice, but will modify the left and right channel such that various parts of the spectrum cancel out X times per second (E.g: 4 Hz,, 7.5 Hz, 10 Hz...). Thereby generating a binaural beat, which for lower frequencies is able to entrain the brainwave.

To use the software, open a song, dial the slider to the brainwave-frequency you want, put on the headphones and enjoy the trip. For a real good mediation, open a track by Klaus Schulze (My Thy She or the Rhodes Elegy, both are about an hour), set the brainwave at 7.5 Hz, kick out your shoes, lay down on the couch and see what happens.

Cryosleep supports Delta: 0.5 to 4 Hz; Theta: 4 Hz to 8 Hz; Alpha: 8 Hz - 13 Hz and Beta: 13 Hz - 21 Hz.

Delta waves are high amplitude waves seen in deep, non-REM sleep. It is the standard mode of operation for babies, is located posteriorly in children and frontally in adults. In delta we find us in a dreamless sleep or in transcendental meditation with fully detached awareness. Delta may help to access intuition, curiosity and a "feeling" for situations and people. Delta is the realm of the unconscious mind and the collective unconscious.

Theta is observed during the all-important dream REM-sleep, during meditation, peak experiences and creative states. It is the realm of our subconsciousness and only experienced momentarily as we transit between Delta and Alpha. In Theta we can experience vivid visualizations, great inspiration, profound creativity and exceptional insight. During theta brainwaves, the psychological content if our brain stays inaccessible to our waking mind. By moving it upwards further to alpha/beta it becomes possible to remember theta content. Therefore, it is at the Alpha-Theta border, from 7Hz to 8Hz, that we find the optimal range for visualization and mind programming. At this border, the creative power of our mind begins as we are conscious of our surroundings while our body is in deep relaxation. This allows us to (re)create our reality in our mind.

Alpha brain waves are present during light meditation, when we are in a relaxed state, daydreaming or visualizing.

Usually when the eyes are closed, the brain switches to alpha. It is an optimal place to program the mind for success and it also heightens your imagination, visualization, memory, learning and concentration.

Beta brain waves are associated with normal waking consciousness and a heightened state of alertness,

logic and critical reasoning. Beta are the brainwaves of our "normal" waking consciousness, of our outward attention, of logical, conscious and analytical thinking.
