I'm just waiting for him to chime in about music theory.

Thanks Reuters.
it's an old one, with roots in 80s era right wing cult/crank organization https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schiller_Institute
fuck yes, this is the random all-caps crankery I get out of bed for! I love the idea that 440hz agitates the brain, but not in a scientific way (at least not for our universe?)
seconds after 440hz tone is sounded:
This reminds me of when I was planning out a tubular bells project. there is an amount of crankery around various notes and I came across a series of videos about the various Cs and their use in healing or chakra alignment.
When i went to buy some tuning forks I noted some more weird mysticism, but hey at least they produced a nice set of C notes.
since 1969 all computers have been running Unix. This operating system has NO SCIENTIFIC RELATIONSHIP with our universe and actually causes the brain to become agitated.
I like my music the way I like my CPUs, 432 Hz.

hahaha that's a wonderfully cursed design placement
(yes I looked up a photo quickly)
