Fun fact: the standard advice for if a dog, cat, or human bites your hand, is to feed the bite. Push your hand further into their mouth, forcing the jaw open.

Nurses, EMTs, veterinarians, etc are taught to respond this

The advice for a human biting you is to jam your hand or arm deeper into their mouth, and rub the spot under their nose back and forth.
If you attempt to remove your hand, or forearm, the teeth do what they're supposed to and gouge out a chunk.

This vicious wolf attack illustrates proper technique.
So: every EMT and nurse who gets bitten by a human, is trained to jam their hand or forearm deeper into the mouth, feeding the bite so the jaw widens enough to remove the limb
Also, every redneck learns this along with the advice of "never run from an angry dog"
People whose life involves more bites than usual, are trained to do this. They get horror stories from coworkers who forgot to feed the bite.
A study of human bites: https://t.co/7sYwaiX8Xd
The study indicates that one of the worst bite wounds from a human, is a "fight bite," where someone punches their fist right into a person's mouth. This causes very deep puncture wounds, and greatly increases the chance of infection of tendons and joints.
What makes fight bites even more dangerous, is that extending the fingers afterwards acts to smear bacteria along tendons.

They have to be evaluated while keeping the fist closed.
The natural response to hand injuries is to flex the hand, extending the fingers to evaluate the extent of the injury.

This, if the bite punctured the MCP joints or tendon sheath, makes infection much more likely.
Who gets bitten most frequently?

Young, drunk men, while partying. And they get bitten mostly on the face.

Human bite injuries account for 0.1% of ER visits.

Here's a study of bite wounds, animal and human, in Germany https://t.co/59H58rhlrq
In this study, 77% of human bites were fight bites https://t.co/mvnu5wJXja
This study measured bite force in 770 humans

Incisor: 43.3kg
First Molar: 120.66kg https://t.co/EfRbZEZjsh
This study tested human bite force using a gnathodynamometer.

All subjects ceased applying pressure citing tooth pain, well before maximal pressure was exerted. https://t.co/IRGjQxoTi5
The highest recorded bite in this one was 124kg.

He also used a phagodynamometer to test crush pressures of various foods, with surprising results. He found that bread crusts can be incompressible enough to shatter tooth cusps.
The strongest recorded human bite was by Richard Hofmann, a floridaman, with 442kg of bite strength as measured by the gnathodynamometer.

Look at some historical examples of mass psychogenic illnesses: dancing plagues, laughing plagues, meowing nuns,

Here's a video on them:

They are interesting, but what is more interesting to me is Culture Bound Syndrome.
https://t.co/hMKaApUMZn

Basically: mass psychogenic illness, and presentation of various mental illnesses, do not occur in a vacuum. Cultures shape them.

For instance, Koro.

There have been several mass outbreaks of men completely convinced their penises are shrinking, anchoring them with string at night so they don't get sucked back inside.

Almost all in Southeast

Here's a description of one outbreak in Hainan in 1984:
So you want to generate interesting melodies.

1. Make a file called 1235.txt containing, one per line, all 24 unique permutations of the elements 1 2 3 5.


2. Cp 1235.txt to D.txt

3. Use sed to convert the numbers in D.txt to notes. Now you have 24 permutations of the major tetrachord in D.

4. Play them each. If it sounds like it increases tension, mark the beginning of that cell in 1235.txt with a +. If it sounds like it decreases tension, mark with a -.

Now those 24 melodic cells are divided into two groups: tension increasers and resolvers.

5. Rinse and repeat for all 12 keys.

You now have 13 plaintext files, filled with stuff like + 1 2 5 3 and - D E F# A

6. Figuratively roll dice to decide, given a +/- cell, what the next cell should be.

33% chance a + follows a +, etc.

Now you're outputting a stream of dynamic tensions: ++-+++-+-+---+ etc
