The Power of Oscillation & Resonance!
We use the words “VIBRATIONS” and “VIBES” a lot but seldom get that these are real. OSCILLATIONS are essential to the reality we live in. They impact our generative process (creative process), our abilities, and skills in addition to our life existence.

We use the words “generate”, “generator” and “generation” interchangable with the words “create”, “creator” and “creation”
What Is a
Vibration?
The clean definition of a vibration is “a motion or movement that happens repeatedly (more than once) over a set measurement (points A–B)”. This unit can be anything you wish. Our culture uses “time” as our primary unit and measuring tool. When…
… a body of mass spins (alt. pulsates) over a set distance (time), we have “an oscillation”.
At this stage of understanding how the generative process works, see the oscillation as the core and vibrations as the after-effect that ripples out from the core.
An oscillation that continues over longer periods of time, builds energy and forms a condition called “resonance”.
We like resonance a lot and strive to achieve resonance in all our generations (creations)!
Resonance is a motion that happens in a constant repetitive manner through a steady contribution of the same amount of energy. What does this mean?
Well, we can liken this statement to being at the laundromat and putting a quarter in the dryer each 7 minutes to buy another cycle. Then we have the following: a steady contribution (you feeding the dryer) of energy (the quarter) in a repeated manner (every 7 minutes).
The dryer’s cycles continue thanks to your energetic contribution. All you must do is pay a quarter, no need to supply motion for the dryer’s engine or produce electricity for it to work. You only need to contribute an even amount of the same energy to make it operate.
When we achieve great timing and alignment, resonance exponentially returns more energy than we put in (you dry more clothes faster than if you were to hang them up). You can make more through less effort, giving you more energy to generate other things in life (like going to the bar while the dryer is finishing up your clothes).
For another example, let’s compare resonance to biking:
The first strides on a bike, our body must assign more energy to make the bike go from a standstill into movement. Once the bike is going, we can time our peddling in such a way where we can ease up and only need to contribute a fraction of what we put in initially. As long as we maintain steady timing, the bike has momentum.
Achieving great resonance allows us to have energy leftover for other things — we can make more while sustaining our current generations. It creates a loop that accumulates energy each time it circles around, like a snowball that grows rolling down a hill.
For Real,

Generate
Energy
&
Vibrate.
Essential building blocks in our reality — such as electrons, atoms, molecules, and elements — all oscillate and emit vibrations. This is how they generate and bond energy in themselves and between one another.
The energetic vibration becomes the “glue” that holds all these smaller pieces together, and forms the larger construction.
This glue allows the subatomics and particles to form solidness, for example when wood molecules form a table.
Subatomics construct all materials, including the ones that make us up. Therefore, we and everything in existence oscillate.
When we generate an object or idea, we alter the energetic structures of electrons, atoms, and molecules. We affect the materials’ energy with our proactive actions and movements (with our activity); this forms our results.
We make a song through recording audio, and the playback of the recorded sound waves forces the speakers’ membranes to move. This movement causes sound vibrations in the room, which we hear through our skeleton’s, ears’, and skin’s interpretation. Throughout this sequence, particles vibrate in different ways (even in our body), enabling the recorded audio at one location to be audible at another.
An action like stone splitting is a more on-the-nose example of how changing vibrations transform shapes. The stone splitter takes an enormous piece of, for example, granite and splits this into a smaller structure, by driving several wedges into the large rock. They reconstruct the larger molecular formation through forced vibrations. This is possible through contributing energy in a steady and repeated manner.
We can hear the tonal difference (the vibrational shift) when the hammer meets the wedges throughout the process. The timing of vibrations, force, and resonance allows the stone splitter to generate a great impact relative to the amount of energy they assign.
In this video Dennis Carter founder of Deer Isle Hostel in Maine uses “a 2-pound hammer to cut a 26,000 pound block of lovely Deer Isle granite into two equal parts” according to Joe Dorr.
Some pretty cool stuff!
Why We

Understnad
Resonance
&
Oscillation
The generative process is all about mastery in forming the energy of an idea into physicalness. Because of this, an increased understanding of what “physical form” is becomes mandatory. With this understanding, we can generate projects that are more potent and hold an increased oscillation (more energy).
Failure to subconsciously understand how resonance works when biking causes poor timing. Our peddling is then off. We will also contribute too much or too little energy and start/stop all the time. In general, not understanding the framework costs us more energy than generating according to its rules and laws.
We do not need to be great at science, physics, or math in the classical sense. The information surrounds us all the time and is absorbable to everyone. Whatever your profession is now, you can use that modality to understand the laws of oscillation (vibration) and resonance — deeper.
Watching some physics videos about resonance could be helpful. One of my main go-to’s is Julius Sumner Miller. His lectures are entertaining (the set, colors, and music are just amazing!).
Researching oscillation and resonance, then successively applying this information throughout your day, is enough.
Creating is not an esoteric, vague experience for some chosen few, but an extremely proactive and immersive in-body experience that we all know how to do.
Accepting that you are able to generate (create), opens up doors for days. In this state, we can reveal why our results are as they are, understand how to grow our knowledge further, and freely collaborate with others.
The Foundation
for Our
Physical
Oscillation
is Our Bodies
Themselves
Since our body consist of electrons, atoms, molecules, elements, and subatomics, it also means that our bodies vibrate a lot too! (emits many vibrations) Actually…
…we are wandering oscillation powerhouses — generators.
Performance of an action means that we generate energy into pathways and different forms. This includes when we simply think or imagine. It is via the technique of generation that we communicate with others, generate what we wish to experience, produce life energy, and perform proactive doings (such as artistic and entrepreneurial endeavors). We base our actions on our personal capacity of energy, oscillation, and resonance.
Our bodies move; therefore, we must make sure to uphold our inner superpower at its highest grade at all times. Achieving this makes it easier to accomplish larger generations. The inner power capacity also affects how well we can send and interpret energy from others.
Super-powered energy moves tremendously. Therefore, the greater oscillation we can hold in our body, the more of this power we can direct to make things and generate experiences.
Just like the apple tree and the apples that we spoke about earlier, you can liken our body to the vibrant apple tree that oscillates, and our energetic power allows us to expand and make more apples. Once an apple tree is not vibrant (does not oscillate as it should), apples tend to not be made.
When we as generators demolish our bodies completely, we become unable of making anything including art. We will then don’t have enough energy production to:
Form the thought process needed
Have the muscle strength required to perform the actions of our endeavor
Again...
Everything
Vibrates!
Here is another video that I think everyone should see.
“The Visual Microphone: Passive Recovery of Sound from Video” made by Abe Davis, Michael Rubinstein, Neal Wadhwa, Gautham J. Mysore, Fredo Durand, Wialliam T. Freeman (there’s also a paper you can read here).
This team has recovered spoken sound from high-speed footage that was recorded with no audio at all (as in no sound recording). This was possible by taking environmental objects’ vibrational movements and reconstructing the sound based on that movement. The recovery is impressively clear!
“When we achieve great timing and alignment, resonance exponentially returns more energy than we put in.”

a summary of this series:
Our understanding of materials is based on our generative capacity (creative capacity) of vibration. The more we understand our personal energy, the more masterful generators (creators) we can become.
Throughout this series, A Perspective on Material Evolution and Human Creativity, I will discuss how our cultural understanding of vibrations and material evolution relate to each other.
This is a multi-part series. Each supercharged observation is published every other Wednesday with a newsletter notification sent out on Thursday.
