The Schumann resonances (SR) are a set of spectrum peaks in the extremely low frequency (ELF) portion of the Earth's electromagnetic field spectrum. Schumann resonances are global electromagnetic resonances, generated and excited by lightning discharges in the cavity formed by the Earth's surface and the ionosphere.
Lightning discharges are considered to be the primary natural source of Schumann resonance excitation; lightning channels behave like huge antennas that radiate electromagnetic energy at frequencies below about 100 kHz. These signals are very weak at large distances from the lightning source, but the Earth–ionosphere waveguide behaves like a resonator at ELF frequencies and amplifies the spectral signals from lightning at the resonance frequencies.
The real Earth–ionosphere waveguide is not a perfect electromagnetic resonant cavity. Losses due to finite ionosphere electrical conductivity lower the propagation speed of electromagnetic signals in the cavity, resulting in a resonance frequency that is lower than would be expected in an ideal case, and the observed peaks are wide. In addition, there are a number of horizontal asymmetries – day-night difference in the height of the ionosphere, latitudinal changes in the Earth's magnetic field, sudden ionospheric disturbances, polar cap absorption, variation in the Earth radius of ± 11 km from equator to geographic poles, etc. that produce other effects in the Schumann resonance power spectra.
Peter Schumann
If there‘s any cat among the bunch who earns the title notorious nomad it‘s Peter Schumann.
At home on the road, he seems to already be down with everybody wherever he goes, weaving a network of soulful individuals around the globe.
One of the few things that do call him homewards once in a while is his laboratoryesque Holz- markt studio overseeing Kater‘s riverside.
This is where his offspring evolves from mere hi-hat grooves to full-blown rave monsters. Peter Schumann translates the experiences his travels created into soundwaves - relentlessly: since his debut in 2002 a stunning twenty albums, EPs and singles have seen the light of day.
And as long as the horizon keeps calling, there‘s no end in sight for his constant output.So remember, when you nd yourself dancing to a Schumann set and it seems to take you places, you‘re actually creating a full circle, extending his journeys from the physical to the metaphysical dimension.
