COSMIC VIBRATIONS AND LIFE It is not generally known that Marconi was profoundly interested in the narrowing point of union between cosmic vibrations and the mysteries of Ute. He. considered that the phenomena of the human brain had metapsychic character istles which brought the natural and the spiritual into communion. On one occasion he said. "It is evident that the human brain could send messages to distances Infinitely more remote than any mechanical transmitter over de- vised, because thought consists of
a category or those vibrations which we can just capture to-day wih the microphone, but infinitely more subtle."
The everyday work of Senator Marconi was devoted to more. mundane aspects of science, prin- cipally the automatic wireless ste ering of vessels controlled from the short, and the application of ultra-short waves to military de- vices of defence and offence.
