Observations on sound optimisation on the basis of radionics Voodoo, madness and perception

If we take time to think about the interests of our health, we come across not only the familiar conventional , but now also , , osteopathy, Schüssler salts, Bach Flowers and Ayurve- da, and terms such radionics or bioreso- nance are used with increasing frequency. Almost all facets of modern life are expe- riencing an incredible flood of novelties and innovations. Even in the case of apparently mundane things like our instrument, we never stop trying to get the best out of them – are there still completely unknown possibilities concealed here?

I should start by saying that I count myself amongst people who have both feet firmly on the ground, have a healthy degree of scepticism, but still do not shut themselves off to new circumstances and situations. This is the impression I must have made on my local bicycle dealer, who until that time had not been associated with anything else. On the occasion of a visit to his shop, he told me that he knew that I had something to do with guitars. When I confirmed this, he indicated that he wanted to carry out an experi- 1 there were stresses and tensions in the wood, and that the maker of the guitar was probably also under stress, most likely because of health problems, and these had been transmitted to the instru- ment. Damn it, how can that be? Around this time, James Tyler was diagnosed with a brain tumour, and while any resulting stress is certain- ly understandable, how could a bicycle dealer in Mittelfranken have come to suspect this from the computer analysis of a guitar, and how can it be that such a matter manifests itself in the instrument?
