Re: List of Kasina Sessions?
Concerning my sessions, their structure is closer to that of say the pRoshi device or the Procyon MindBrite OS (which may still be released someday) in that they are 'broadband' stimulus within a desirable target range. Most people can quite naturally respond to Alpha stimulation as a baseline. However, the key alpha frequency of each individual is a bit different and even that changes from day to day, session to session. So, it is quite beneficial to expose a range of frequencies within the target band in a non-linear manner. This is more characteristic of an actual EEG response.
Because of the lack of limitations with SpectraStrobe encoding compared to past systems, I was able to produce very interesting stimuli in a thematic way. So each session has a key range of frequencies and then using the principles of harmonics (whole number ratios) I would introduce 'ramps' and 'jumps' in frequency... often doubling and halving the frequency to move within different ranges before return to the baseline.
It is closer to how a symphony is composed with motifs, overtures, modulations, and movements.. Maybe the difference is best understood by comparing a metronome to a drum line. At the same time the music was kept relatively sparse with a strong drone as the primary element with 'twinkles' and decorations on the top. These are sources of interest and variety on the stable base.
Anyway, these are ideas I have had for a long time but never the technology to pursue them with freedom. To be honest, we are building on the findings of the past but pushing ahead as the models improve.
Your feedback is key to telling us how successful we are, as this is only the first round in a continuing set of evolved sessions.

If you know something I don't, speak up! If maybe I know something you don't, ask away!
