DNA Nucleotides

Listing ID #4662738

The DNA Nucleotides Tuning Forks are a set of 4 forks, one for each mid-range tone (C#) for each nucleotide of the DNA. They come from the research of Susan Alexjander in Partnership with Biologist David Deamer.
"C# is just one of about 16 frequencies in each nucleotide", according to Susan Alexjander. She believes C# is the pivot pitch, or perhaps even the 'master tuner'. When she looked at the data of frequencies, the C# fell right in the 'middle' of the scale when you arrange them from low to high. Susan's ear naturally tuned to C#, and she felt that all the other pitches of each DNA nucleotide revolved around it.
The vibrations of DNA were measured using an infrared spectrophotometer. Each base of DNA is exposed to infrared light. Then the wavelengths each base absorbs from the infrared light are measured. Since each base has a slightly different atomic structure, it will vibrate in a unique manner.The possibilities with these tuning forks are extraordinary.
