below: original Sentic Wave Forms from Manfred Clynes, superconductor music and much more note however, the lines from the peak pressure points suggesting simple whole ratios at the bottom, were added by this author. Dr. Clynes did not agree with these simple ratios which I derived by choosing begin, vs, peak, vs ending points...

You were lying in bed one night with your lover and she said, "Oh you just don't touch me like you used to", or "You don't touch me like my other lover does".. and well by golly this was not going to get you down. You were going to solve this problem like any good academic might... You would calmly and without undue "emotion", consult the scientific body of literature on the question... and you too would become a highly skilled "touch" person. Heavens save us if ever an academic colleague were to find out you weren't the best in your field. And if the field of endeavor were how to touch better, then there certainly ought to be a solution right there in the scientific literature...

 

So off you went to the college academic library because your lover said you ought to learn how to "touch". So right there under "Geometry of Pressure" in the "touching" literature on music you found it. Yes, thank goodness, some academic had researched the question, so that you would not have to start from scratch and learn how to "touch" without academic training.

The academic who investigated geometrically how to properly touch, is named "Manfred Clynes". His first book on the subject is called "Sentics", another is called "Music, Mind and Brain". His work on the known wave forms to express emotion, as a concert violinist, was also featured on the Nova series, "What is Music". Most currently, users are advised to consult his web site, for music custom designed to contain perfected wave forms of sonic pressure and envelope to optimize the FEELING of the emotion intended.

The issue for this conversation, is how to actually apply this information to learn how to touch better. Manfred developed a set of Sentic Cycles, in which people were given sequences of touch and visualization exercises to express emotion. Here we will braid to and add our thoughts this work.

By way of intro, in Sentics, Manfred simply has you change the pressure in the way you touch over time, and thereby express FEELING. So in the chart above, the way you would change your touching pressure as you touched a spring, was mapped. (Visualize the "sentometer" as a simple button on a spring; put a pen on the button and run a chart recorder behind it, and you get a map of the change in pressure over time on the button.)

We need to understand this simply, in a way that permits us to use this information to be better touchers.

Imagine that you were walking up to someone very important to you. And you were about to give them a big squeeze hug. And it was very imporant for you to know that your squeeze definitely conveyed the emotion you intended. This is where this chart comes in handy.

In order to understand how to squeeze better, it is helpful to begin to think of your squeezing skills, as a "GEOMETRY OF PRESSURE". At first this seems painfully analytical. But consider it this way.

A squeeze, ( or hug, or touch)... consists of basically THREE events which we may chart, as above.

The FIRST event is:

Event ONE: The BEGINNING of the SQUEEZE.

The LAST event is:

Event THREE: The END of the SQUEEZE.

Now, somewhere in the middle area above there occurs the MIDDLE OR SECOND EVENT:

The POINT OF MAXIMUM SQUEEZE.

---

Now this may all seem a bit strange, to begin to think of your squeezing time, during hugging as:

begin event..

peak event..

end event..

but actually this IS going to help you be a better hugger, so bare with me.

If you begin to notice how soon the max pressure occurs in your hugs, you can begin to conceive of a RATIO. Was the max pressure in my hug 1/6, 1/3, 1/7, or 1/PHI GOLDEN MEAN into the duration of my hugging. This may at first seem to collapse the intentional rich spontoneity of hugging, but I suggest to you that the skill to hug properly, while instinctual (as Sentics proved), may also be optimized and learned, and then become instinctual at a higher level.

--

You see in the chart above, I have added to the waveforms something not in Manfred Clynes Sentics. I have made note where the point of MAXIMUM occurs in each squeeze play. AND IT IS FROM THESE ORIGINAL ADDITIONS I HAVE MADE, that I HAVE SUGGESTED THE RATIOS IMPLIED BY THESE EMOTIONS ON THE BOTTOM AXIS.

Simply put, if you want to send joy, then the point of maximum pressure in your squeeze (hug), should be about 1/6 into the duration of the hug or squeeze. One sixth makes a wave hex whose edge length equals it's radius, planer and space filling, but not inherently lifting off the plane it finds itself in. Good for fixing an emotion, not good for sending. The witches hex fixes.

Now, on the other hand if you want to send anger, your point of maximum pressure will be sooner during your squeezing practice: about 1/7 into the duration of the hug or squeeze. The seventh creates destructive harmonic interference among waves, which may be useful if you are shooing money changers out of a temple.

Now, here comes the fun part of learning to hug better. If you want your hug or squeeze to explicitly indicate LOVE, then the Sentics wave forms for emotion, tested to be a universal language for cultures the world over, have some specific instruction for you.

The HUG THAT SAYS LOVE, is one where the point of maximum pressure is approximately .618 or GOLDEN MEAN, into the duration of the hug or squeeze. ... What this says is that the love hug is explicitly more restrained initially, it is almost tantric. Specifically, you don't go for the rush right away, you let it build awhile.

And you can test to see if your love hug, according to academic standards, did in fact succeed. You wait for a little while, afterward, in gentle but specific stillness, for the love hug you just gave to settle in. (Mother said: "He's not talking while the flavor lasts".)

Then you simply ask your experimental huggee:

"Did you feel a tingle in your DNA?"

Let me explain why this is the correct Electric Kool Aid Acid Test, for proper academic rating of love hugs.

You see, by creating a squeeze geometry of pressure, at the ratio of close to the Golden Mean, you have solved the "bifurcation puzzle" (problem of separateness for waves), and you have sent a wave cascading down the kite string, or cracked whip, from long to short. You divide a wave in this way. (The PHI-lo tactic perfect branching all-go-rhythmn.. Scion... John=branch of fractal tree). The big part to the little part as ratio, equals the big part to the whole. This starts a wave INTERFERING WITH ITSELF NON-DESTRUCTIVELY.

And what happens when your hug wave does this? Your hug pressures add and multiply all the way down the PHI wave (Jacob's best) ladder. And the spin of pressures cascade RIGHT IN THE HUGGEE'S DNA. So you need to know if they felt the TINGLE!!! This tells you if their DNA implode braided just a little more toward perfect embedding, in response to the perfect embedding of the (piezoelectric muscular) geometry of your hug. If so, then the spin density of the wave in their DNA became a bit more sustainable (recursive). AND THAT THEN MOVED YOUR HUGGEE APPROPRIATELY JUST A BIT MORE TOWARD IMMORTALITY.
