House of The Rising Sun played on Steve Caton's and Eric Goodchild's (me) 7 foot tall Musical Tesla Coils.

This was the first time the coils have ever been run together. It was a marvelous first test.

These are two gigantic solid state musical Tesla Coils. A Tesla Coil is a special type of transformer invented by Nikola Tesla that is able to generating extremely large voltages using a phenomenon known as electrical resonance. Each coil in this video is capable of generating a 13 foot spark. This equates to about 500,000 volts of electricity.

The primary drive system for the coils consists of high power semiconductors arranged into an H-Bridge switching configuration. During a spark event, the coil is pulsed on for a few hundred millionths of a second. During this short time, thousands of amps circulate within the primary tank circuit and the energy is coupled into the secondary resonator through magnetism.

So what appears to be a continuous burst of sparks is actually a specific number of sparks generated per second. By modulating the number of sparks that emit from the coil each second, different tones can be produced by the coils.

These coils were constructed by Eric Goodchild and Steven Caton.

No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

I listened to that Coltrane, I think I always heard about it. Quite a record.

@EasyAce

Someone pointed me to the title track on YouTube. I gave it a listen; I'd almost never really
sunk into Alice Coltrane previously, though I have quite a library of her husband's work---
the work he did before he started going stark raving mad in his music in mid-1965. I listened
to "Journey in Satchidananda" the title track and fell so much in love with it I bought that
album plus her earlier . . .

Alice Coltrane, Ptah, the El Daoud

Not to mention this that she subsequently made with a slightly surprising collaborator . . .

Devadip Carlos Santana, Turiya Alice Coltrane, Illuminations

We should consider dating the threads but it is not that important.

@TomSea @EasyAce @mystery-ak

Let's do it starting now.

I have never been a Mod anywhere before and all this crap is new to me,but I THINK we might be able to use the "Merge" function to pull all daily threads into a new folder we MIGHT be able to create named "April 2017",for example.

Nancy,is this doable? It sure would clean up your board and make it easier for people to find archived files with songs they want to find.

TEST!

This is an attempted to see if we can merge daily files into a monthly and yearly file so they are easier to find,and so it reduces clutter on the main board.

I guess we will see how it works beginning on 21 April.

If I was me I would 'Stickey" it for the month and and just merge the dailys into it. Then next month  start a new one for May.... Stick it and then unstick the April thread.

Just spit ballin.
