Frequency Islands of Perception:
“Though the diameter of Betelguese in Orion’s Belt is greater than the diameter of the Planet Earth’s orbit around the Sun, Betelguese appears to Earthians only as a fine point of light. As in the rate of information recall by the mind from brain storage, there is also an inherent lag in the rate of human optical apprehending of newly perceived phenomena. The pulsative frequency of alternating current electric light at 60 cycles per second is designedly frequenced to coincide with the frequency corresponding to humans’ ‘second look’ stroboscopic rate of apprehending. In a like manner the frequency rate of cinema’s picture-frame running is synchronized to coincide with the rate of mental-mouthful digestability of new information receptivity which must check the new information with the old to permit recognition or new cognition. The static frames themselves–as in benday screen printing–are frequency-subdivided into local increments whose wavelength-spacing is infra-tunable by the human-brain-apprehending set. The human brain apprehending at 200 info-bits per inch appears as omnicontinuous, despite the separate frequency islands of their different color light points, each of which is an island of different electromagnetic frequencies. All of the spots are frequency islands like events and novents.”
