One thing that I think is interesting about the prospects of audio-psycho-influence, is that in todays technocracy, there is a speaker set in almost
every room in America. Whether its your computer, tv, or radio, all of these devices are potential vectors for "mind control," if such techniques
are possible.
This story reminds me of an article I read in Physicsworld, where scientists discovered they could cause people to feel anxious, with an inaudible
frequency of sound. That's a far cry from mind control, but imagining a misuse for this is not hard.
Perhaps during the presidents next state of the union address, a theme of "Terrorist attack imminent," married with the audio-psycho-influence of
induced anxiety, could be used to scare the American voter into submission. News agencies, radio broadcast owners, even computer hackers, could be
used as sources of proliferation.
Think about what you are doing right now. Probably staring at a computer monitor and speakers. Is it possible to hijack your mind, through the things
you keep in your house? No. I would conjecture that if it were possible, it would have been used. That's not to say that influencing your vote is out
of reach, however.
