Abstract

Abstract Audio subliminal recordings are made in which in addition to using a primary carrier, such as music, two audio channels are used to deliver subliminal messages to the brain. On one channel, accessing the left brain hemisphere, the message delivered is meaningfully spoken, forward-masked, permissive affirmations delivered in a round-robin manner by a male voice, a female voice and a child's voice. On the other channel, accessing the right brain, directive messages, in the same voices, are recorded in backward-masked (or meta-contrast). The three voices are recording in round-robin fashion with full echo reverberation. The audio tracks are mixed using a special processor which converts sound frequencies to electrical impulses and tracks the subliminal message to synchronize the subliminal message in stereo with the primary carrier. The processor maintains constant gain differential between the primary carrier and the subliminal verbiage and, with the subliminal verbiage being recorded with round-robin, full echo reverberation, ensures that none of a message is lost. The primary carrier should be continuous music without breaks or great differences in movements.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 50
Claim 1
Independent Claim 131 words
A method of making audio subliminal recordings comprising: a) selecting a sound to be used as a primary carrier, b) selecting verbiage to be injected beneath the primary carrier as a subliminal message, c) recording a first statement on a first channel in forward masking form and recording a second statement on a second channel in back-masking form, d) combining the first statement on the first channel with the second statement on the second channel to create the subliminal message, e) mixing the primary carrier sound with the subliminal message to maintain the volume level of the subliminal message within a constant decibel range beneath the volume level of the primary carrier sound, f) recording the mixed primary carrier sound and the subliminal message whereby an audio subliminal recording is created.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 131 words
A method of making audio subliminal recordings comprising: a) selecting a sound to be used as a primary carrier, b) selecting verbiage to be injected beneath the primary carrier as a subliminal message, c) recording a first statement on a first channel in forward masking form and recording a second statement on a second channel in back-masking form, d) combining the first statement on the first channel with the second statement on the second channel to create the subliminal message, e) mixing the primary carrier sound with the subliminal message to maintain the volume level of the subliminal message within a constant decibel range beneath the volume level of the primary carrier sound, f) recording the mixed primary carrier sound and the subliminal message whereby an audio subliminal recording is created.
