Interesting article on Stone Levitation using Acoustic Resonance


Stone levitation as recorded in the monuments of mostly long past but also some recent origins is a process of using of acoustic resonance induced magnetic levitation 

What to Achieve
  • Generation of sound combination of particular properties
  • Set up a partial and stabilized geomagnetic field “gap” by building a ferromagnetic fence.
  • Get hold of some magnetic field.
Generation of Sound
You will polish about one square inch of a sample from the stone of your choice, that is a piece of the kind of stone you intend to work with. You will sprinkle finely ground kitchen salt on that polished patch of the stone. You will start playing or singing a single low tune to the stone, slowly raising the tune and watching what is happening with the salt. When the random order of the sprinkled salt begins to organize into some regular patterns (which will depend entirely on the kind and quality of the stone), you will stick to that particular sound and vary it only so slightly and patiently and slowly, until you get the clearest possible pattern. You will note the frequency of the sound (an electronic acoustic frequency detector would be a very handy instrument to have around) and record it. If you have good musical ear, you can record the sound in your brain databanks. 

You have just caught one of the few major resonant frequencies in your sample. That is the frequency, which harmonically corresponds to a major proportion of the same size and harmonic size and kind and orientation within the stone. The stone itself is not likely to sound itself, as you have only produced a low harmonic of a much higher crystalline resonant frequency. If you use a musical instrument, I would recommend to also try other instruments at the same tune frequency. Some instruments will work better than other instruments. A tunable instrument whose oscillator is made from the same stone like the sample stone should work the best, but I have no idea how to make a musical instrument from a stone, or with a stone as its resonator. You may. 

Once you have one such frequency established and recorded, you may have to go on with sound generation again raising the sound ever so slowly and watching freshly sprinkled salt on the piece, till you hit on to another major frequency. You have to check that the second frequency is not a harmonic of the first one. If it is, it is useless to apply the lower of the two for eventual levitation. If it is not, you have to test if the two, will interfere or not. If they do, you use only the one, which gave you a smaller and/or more pronounced pattern of salt grains. 

You will continue with this experimentation, until you find all possible major frequencies of different harmonic sets, which do not interfere. (There is a good chance that you will hit upon a single frequency harmonic only, which is worth your attention.) The more of these tunes you sing or play to your stone while getting it to levitate, the more efficient will be your lift.
To make your job easier, you can pick a stone, which is reasonably homogenous, lets say a metamorphic limestone, or soapstone, or chalk, at least for the starters. I would recommend stone, which has been proven to work in the past, but please do not take apart the Coral Castle or the pyramids. It is not necessary. Just find out what kinds of stone was used in the Menhirs, the Egyptian pyramid cladding, pyramid guts, Baalbeck terrace and Easter Island statues. Pick the simplest stone to start with. The composite stones like granite will be much more complicated and therefore difficult to resonate and levitate due to their greater mineral, chemical and crystalline complexity. Do not attempt to use shale and artificial ceramics. They have very complex chemistry and polycrystallinity.
