I have read that one of the explanations for shamanistic drumming is that the beat subdues the left side of the brain. There seems to be a lot of questionable drum healing offerings on the net but one intriguing aspect of shamanism is that the drum could be much more accessible than the mediation techniques and training required in other approaches. I'm not sure how magic fits into it all but I have always wondered if any magicians exploit the color phi phenomenon. Great post, Jill Bolte Taylor's talk is one of the most amazing projections I have ever seen, and an easy winner of the "best use of a prop in a presentation ever".
