Is music weaponized?

This is called weaponized music. Artists change the hertz from 432 to 440, through tuning their instruments, to change the way their listeners feel or even think. This is said to be used to cause listeners to astral project, sleep, think differently, cause anger and even cause a feeling of unhappiness.

Editor’s Note: The Sheridan Student Column is brought to readers by Sheridan High School’s 10th grade English class, taught by Abigayle Williams. “If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.” – Nikola Tesla “Everything is energy and that’s all there is to it.” – Albert Einstein It’s a widely-known fact that everything is made up of energy vibrating at different frequencies. According to collective-evolution.com, if sound frequencies can move through a medium and directly alter the vibration of the matter, musical frequencies can alter our own vibrational state and influence our minds. This leads to the question, can sound frequencies affect the human mind? Can music be weaponized? Of course, this is a very controversial question, so I’m here to entertain my opinions and state my viewpoint. Before 1953, 432 hertz was the main standard for tuning all musical instruments, based on the chromatic scale. Hertz is frequency, so basically, it’s how many times the frequency waves hit the matter. According to globalnews.ca, in 1953, 440 hertz became the ISO 16 standard for tuning all musical instruments based on the chromatic scale. 432 hertz is believed to be disharmonious to the natural frequencies of nature. According to collective-evolution.com, 432 hertz is said to unify with the properties of light, time, space, matter, gravity and magnetism with biology, the DNA code and the consciousness. 432 hertz is said to induce a more harmonious experience. On the other hand, 440 hertz is unnatural and clashes with Phi, the universe’s golden mean, and this is thought to cause agitation, aggression and emotional distress within the human mind. This topic is very controversial because it hasn’t been scientifically proven. Although, many of these facts can lead to the idea that sound frequencies can influence the mind. There are many studies that have been performed that are also closely related to this topic. For example, the influence that sound frequency has in plants: Scientists at the National Institute of Agricultural Biotechnology in Suwon, South Korea, researched this topic. They began by playing 14 different classical pieces to rice plants. They discovered that sound waves at specific frequencies, 123 hertz and 250 hertz, made genes rbcS and Ald more active, but on the other hand, sound waves at 50 hertz made genes less active. If sound frequencies have a proven effect on plants, then they could possibly have an effect on animals. How would humans be exposed to these frequencies? Music is the answer. Almost everyone in the world has listened to music once in their life, if not every day. Artists are able to tune their instruments to 440 hertz and use it throughout their music. Many people have said they felt a change in the way they feel with the different hertz.

Globalnews.ca also says the change in standard for hertz has been said to be more sinister because artists could use this change to try and play with the minds of their listeners. This is called weaponized music. Artists change the hertz from 432 to 440, through tuning their instruments, to change the way their listeners feel or even think. This is said to be used to cause listeners to astral project, sleep, think differently, cause anger and even cause a feeling of unhappiness. Astral projection is the feeling of the consciousness or spirit leaving the body. According to globalnews.ca, Joseph Goebbels, Hitler’s Propaganda Minister, believed that tuning music causes anger, aggression and emotional distress making people, “a prisoner of a certain consciousness.” I believe that this is true because listening to certain music may give me discomfort and cause confusing emotions that make me feel uncomfortable. I have listened to music that is tuned in 440 hertz for the majority of my life and have enjoyed it. However, I can tell the difference between music with 432 hertz and 440 hertz and can say that there is a difference in the way I feel. I wouldn’t say it is a dramatic change, but I can understand why this could affect our population as a whole. The change in hertz paired with the message in music could definitely have a negative influence on today’s generation.
