The Hallelujah Effect is FantasticBy Tom BabichThis book is fantastic; tremendous; The Hallelujah Effect will make you think deeply.It took me nine days to read (unusual) as I had to take breaks from the mental workouts; here are my notes on the book:------------------------------------------------- Begin Hallelujah Effect notes:-----------------------------------------------"The Hallelujah EffectEidetic - pertaining to visual imagery vividly experienced and readily reproducedS. hoax - Academic who illustrated that playing to the fancies of a scientific editorial board allowed nonsense to be published(Peer review - still presents a paradox; prevents genuinely new ideas)Adorno - German philosopher who examined the implications of radio broadcast and its effect on people; not much has changed(Princeton Radio Project)... dont get one theory; how could Beethoven have heard music corrupted via loudspeaker (timeline)?KD Lang - performer with a powerful voice; who crosses gender boundaries and capitalizes (literally) on the Hallelujah Effect.Characters from the story whom I know:Holgar Schmidtt; German philosopher thinkerDavid Allison; groovy philosopher King*Tracy B. Strong; political philosopher; likes General Tsaos chicken and General Tsao too**"ProofCopy" watermark reaches entropy and achieves critical mass about halfway through the book; a watermark removal tool is in order (I had the pleasure of reading the ProofCopy).The footnotes: they cannot be ignored; they are vast and also tell stories and cultivate the identities of the other characters - Ive never seen footnotes like these in any other book.Telefunken Arcolette - a three tube radio using Triodes![...][...]On SONY:Not surprised SONY demands payment for fair use considering their view of fair use is ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO SONY:10-12 years ago playing a SONY BMG CD in your PC would install a SONY rootkit providing them will full access to your PC and to search it for mp3s and whatever else; this caused havoc in the corporate world (they didnt want SONY to have all their base) and SONY blamed the tech firms they employed.WHAT YOU SAY!!! Since a portion of the rootkit consisted of stolen open source code that has to be free via its public license they do not understand copyright when someone else is holding it; all your copyright are belong to SONY :)Saint Ambrose and Agustine (214) who are they?Aurielius Abrosius - Bishop of Milan; gave away his property to the poor; leveraged his legal skills to turn the tables on the politicians who sponsored him.Blessed Augstine - Patron saint of Brewers; printers and theologians who alleviates sore eyes (great if youve read the watermark copy); taught salvation; divine grace.Vergegenwartigung - experience of making present or realisation - like Farfagnugen is driving experience.*argues that Nietzsche believes music intoxicates; causes a Dionysian state; focus on dissonance (but this is unpleasant music then)>> Adorno made similar claims about Jazz**argues Nietzsche waxes Wagnerian (223); Nietzsche and politics (247);Nietzsche and political theory; taking seriously (269) What is with the dissonance focus? Did Nietzsche like Schaunberg?Breaking Jewelery?***233 - this is increasingly getting harder to read...237... again the Adorno reference to Beethoven hearing loudspeakers - timeline?OK got it - Adornos reference is about Beethoven hearing a symphony in anything other than a concert hall; degredation.!***finally Ive found a reference I expected; Schoenberg it was (240)! Not so fond of him; Charles Ives much better; dissonance made pleasant.Eleusinian? (258) - Secret rites of the ancient Greeks (Eleusis)Schopenhauer; Arthur - another philosopher (the World and Will)!! Babette is writing German footnotes on page 275; ok; skipping these obviously; but read a few sentences anyway because German is cool sounding.The book ends with references to the dreaming god (Buddhism) and reflections on technology again; its beguiling immersion and the accompanying loss of awareness of all too real; real world events;Hallelujah!Overview: This is a very advanced book for professors and scholars; for those students that make it through and persevere the book will stimulate and increase cognitive function (but most students will not read the book; will skim and miss).-- end Hallelujah Effect Notes
