- W2564199114 abstract "The purpose of this thesis is to explore musical anomalies that are allegedly paranormalin origin. From a wide range of categories available, three areas are investigated:• music and telepathy• music written by mediums professedly contacted by dead composers• music being heard where the physical source of sound is unknown and presumedto be paranormal.In the first part a method of sensory masking (referred to as ganzfeld) is used to studythe possibility of the emotional or physical content of music being capable of mindtransference. A further experiment presents additional results relating to the highestscoring individuals in the previous trials. No systematic evidence for the telepathiccommunication of music was found. In the second section a number of mediums andthe music they produced are investigated to examine the truthfulness of their claims ofspiritual intervention in compositions and performances. Methods of composition areinvestigated and the music is analysed by experts. For the final part of the thesislocations are specified where reports of anomalous music have been asserted andpeople claiming to have heard such music are introduced and their statementsexamined. Literature from a variety of data bases is considered to ascertain whetherthe evidence for paranormal music consists of genuine material, misconceivedperceptions or fraudulent claims. Only a very few examples of fraud are discovered,but seemingly genuine anomalies are generally found to consist of mistaken identitiesor the embroidery of anecdotal facts. It would appear that human susceptibility andenthusiasm for the paranormal are responsible for most of the data discovered.The results bring together information on two subjects that have not previously beenseriously linked." @default.
