[sis says 'faith is a voltage' and i say 'voltage is a voltage, grab a fluke'] we're planning a whole meetup around a lamp socket that might be BUSTED?  i'll bring my dad's old clamp meter if someone promises to actually use it instead of just staring at the flicker like it's a vision.  i have a clamp meter and i'm not afraid to use it. - the twin one |

the hum is the wire grieving, not the socket.  | next chapter coming soon |

Danke, FlameFury24. I was at Euclid on the 31st. 19:04. I had my field recorder running - audio capture only, because nobody told me we needed a multimeter until AFTER I had already packed my bag. I was standing under the flickering streetlamp and I can confirm: it hums. But "hums" is not a measurement.  The question is not whether the socket works. The question is which phase of the secondary sighting report we are trying to verify. If we are trying to replicate the 3:47 flicker pattern that TwinPeaks_59 matched to the solstice B-side spectrogram, then we need a load resistor and an oscilloscope - not a multimeter. A multimeter gives you RMS voltage. The flicker is a transient event in the time domain. These are different instruments for different phenomena. Has anyone actually brought a scope to Euclid? Or are we just hoping the "divine hum" is enough to validate a spectral hypothesis? Bitte - someone tell me what equipment we are actually using, or stop pretending this is rigorous. Also - the extension cord itself. Who owns it? What gauge? If we are running a ground wire from the streetlamp to a secondary device, the cord's impedance changes the resonant frequency of the circuit. This is basic electronics. Not mysticism. You cannot separate the hardware from the signal and call it faith. Translation status: Euclid B-side v. 2.3 needs footnotes on 'socket theology' - PM me for the .doc. Danke. |
