I’m not a big reposter, but this is cool info

New research reveals that the act of singing can skyrocket immune-boosting antibodies by up to 240% in just one hour. Recent scientific studies reveal that singing is a biological powerhouse that significantly strengthens the immune system. Specifically, vocalizing triggers a rapid increase in Immunoglobulin A (sIgA), a crucial antibody that protects the mouth, throat, and gut from infection. Research involving choir members has shown that active singing can cause these immune markers to spike by as much as 240% within a single hour. Crucially, the benefit requires active participation; while listening to music offers emotional perks, the physical act of singing produces a far more immediate and substantial surge in antibody levels. Beyond the chemical boost, singing functions as physical medicine by activating the vagus nerve to calm the body. This process reduces cortisol, the primary stress hormone, and balances the immune response. These findings are remarkably inclusive, showing measurable improvements in everyone from casual singers to cancer patients and their caregivers. Regardless of technical skill or training, the simple act of raising your voice provides a universal tool for enhancing resilience and health. source: Kreutz, G., Bongard, S., Rohrmann, S., Hodapp, V., & Grebe, D..

BREAKING: While a new War for Oil erupts in the Middle East A Physics Paper just quietly dropped TODAY that will eventually make Oil, and the entire current Energy Industry, irrelevant. Ushering in the era of Zero-Point Energy @EagleworksSonny Here is the breakthrough🧵

So far, my YouTube ultra massive playlist has 88 tracks. I'm going through it today to build this Saturday's stream and probably the following two weeks as well. Fear not! If you have a music video on YouTube, drop it in the quoted post. I do this every week. The playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=…

Got music videos? Want the chance for 10's or even 11's of people to see them? Drop your YouTube link and if I dig it I will play it on my show, and maybe some of my friends will play it on theirs. We all seem to really like music videos.

@StarveDevil @EagleworksSonny The “extraction” claim is coming from social media spin, not the paper. The work shows an acoustic medium whose equations are isospectral with the hydrogen atom. That’s a modeling result, not evidence of harvesting zero-point energy.

New paper accepted in Physical Review Research (APS): “Emergent Quantization from a Dynamic Vacuum.” We show the hydrogen spectrum emerges from dynamic vacuum physics, suggesting quantization may arise from a vacuum that varies in space and time. journals.aps.org/prresearch/abs… #physics

Nice mathematical analogy, but not new physics. The model literally inserts the quantum dispersion D = \hbar/(2m) taken from the Schrödinger equation and then engineers the “vacuum medium” (ρ ∝ 1/r⁴, tuned modulus) so the Helmholtz operator becomes the Coulomb radial equation. Of course the hydrogen spectrum comes out it was built in. That’s isospectral mimicry, not an emergent derivation of quantization.

My experience is essentially identical to this. Want to echo this gratitude. Thank you and thank you to the community.

The Indie Music Showcase is just a tiny little weekly internet show. We won't make you rich or famous. But if you make awesome music, we'll listen and enjoy it. Sometimes that's what matters. Thank you, @StarveDevil. This means a lot!

I haven't grabbed any new tracks from @Bandcamp today, but I did have a bit of a shopping spree for the last one. Each of these albums/songs are worth checking out. Feel free to drop bandcamp links in the comments. No guarantee I will like your music, but I will check it out.

@StarveDevil @isjuustadream Curiosity about inner experience is valid. The only distinction I was making is that science requires shared tests, not just personal ones. Either way, appreciate the exchange. ✌️

@StarveDevil @isjuustadream Curiosity is essential. “Woo” isn’t. If a claim about reality can’t produce testable consequences, it isn’t physics it’s speculation. We’re just going in circles now, so I’ll leave it there.

@QuantumTumbler @isjuustadream I worked on designing, building, and testing quantum devices for many years. 5 to 10 years ago, I would have agreed wholeheartedly with everything you’re saying, and I mostly still do. I’m just more wary now of the assumptions baked in to the way we tend to think as scientists.
