The Electromagnetic Field and Human Health
The Electromagnetic Field And Human Health
by Giulia Boden    Source

It was a crisp Saturday night, and the snow was packed down into the Cotswold Way [UK]. We mused that a
toboggan would have been perfect for the walk through open fields and on top of the hard cold dome of the earth
that night, serenaded by the clearest of night skies and translucent stars. On the horizon, looking spindly in
comparison are electricity pylons traversing the fields, familiar furniture in this modern world.

Change direction, and there in the distance between two of them are the jewel we have come to see. Looking like
bright pigeon scarers, over a thousand strip lights, pushed into the ground beneath the pylons, glowing in the night
are being literally turned on by the power coming off the pylons.

We walked in amongst the tubes, which flashed on and off intermittently; we were very dark obstacles to the rows of
lights. One group close by all held the top of one tube, and as they held on it went out and as they jumped it went on
again. They were live transmitters of this huge electric-magnetic field; we all were, for once knowingly. We were
intrigued as to how close we could stand before the light went off; in the middle it was about 12 inches, and towards
the edges it was twice that.

                                              This is ‘The power of the Field’, an artwork by Richard Box, artist in residence at
                                               Bristol University. He has illuminated two very contradictory phenomena that we
                                               live alongside daily. There's an interactive element to all this, too, for those who
                                               go to the site itself.

                                               'You affect the lights by your proximity', explains Richard Box, because you're a
                                                much better conductor than a glass tube. And there's sound as well as light - a
                                                crackling that corresponds to the flashing of the lights. There's a certain smell
                                                too, and your hair stands slightly on end.'

We are used to the efficacy of electricity in our homes, the electric shadow of the television in our lives and the
satisfaction gained from a well researched idea and clear design gained from the Internet and computer programmes.

What most of us have chosen to ignore, is that the electrical circuiting in our houses can be as much a problem as
the presence of a pylon in your garden. In fact the field of the wiring in your bedroom may be as strong as if it were,
because being close to a weak source can affect you just as much as being at a distance from a strong one. Man-
made fields do not have to be very strong to dwarf the body. See how your sleep is affected by your digital clock
radio, cordless phone, wireless broadband connection etc. To an electrician, a weak magnetic field is 0.001 (Tesla),
which is still 100 billion times stronger than that of the human brain.

Research as yet anecdotal into the human body’s lack of bio-compatibility with man-made frequencies, shows how it
interferes with our natural frequencies; the sensitive pineal gland is affected by fluctuating field strengths so
influencing production of serotonin and melatonin. The brain contains magnetite which is also used in antennae to
receive signals.

We realised it was time to go; my arms were ringing and I finally acknowledged that I was not invincible to the ill
effects of the electro-magnetic field. It was with sadness that I left the field. Leaving that magical kingdom that was to
be dismantled next day, definite temporary home to elves and fairies as long as they didn’t stay too long and get
their wings singed.
