In searching other such “strange noises” on YouTube, I saw other “explanations” being offered, including of course the ever-culpable HAARP and
other ionospheric heaters, to wild speculation that the noises are being hoaxed to sound like Gabriel’s trumpet (in one version of an email I
received).
Now, before we all jump on the 2012 apocalypse bandwagon and start indulging fantasies of interferometry, beat frequencies, target region templates,
or for that matter, magnetic field lines flux and oxygen atom harmonic resonances, cosmic dust, galactic centers, torsion twists, collapsing fields,
and so on, let’s stop and take a breath. Could one perpetrate a hoax using all those things? Well, sure, I suppose, but why bother? Why go to all
that trouble?
A good amplifier, synthesizer, some appropriate distortion and feedback loops, and a few teams carefully placed around the world to create the noises,
would work just as well to perpetrate a hoax (though I will admit that the sound heard on the videos seems more “ambient” than that projected from
a system of speakers, but without actually having heard it in person, it’s hard to say).
Are there people that dubious and debauched to plan something like that, just for kicks? or just to plant one more apocalypse theater meme? Well,
sure. But even the perpetration of such a global hoax would require massive coordination, and I’m sorry, but I don’t think that’s in the cards
either.
So the bottom line for me is, sometimes a strange noise is just a strange noise, and perhaps, just perhaps, with a little more data, careful
observation, and thought, we may find this is the result something natural, though little known because it is so seldom experienced.
My money, for the moment, is on natural phenomena, seldom experienced before, that needs exploration and explanation. Perhaps that accumulation of
data will reveal other possibilities, including technologies or even more elaborate scenarios. But until then, relax, and keep an open mind to all
possibilities before indulging UFOs, HAARP, or apocalyptic hoax scenarios right off the bat.
