Problem:
How long can a Metalhead survive without Heavy Metal?
Question:
Can a Metalhead refrain from listening to Heavy Metal for 2 weeks?
Hypothesis:
I predict that the subject will not survive the two weeks, as i think that this is an experiment of futility.
I predict that the subject will not survive the two weeks, as i think that this is an experiment of futility.
I think this will happen because i know the subject personally, and i know that they listen to music on a daily basis. They are also known to listen to music at every available oppertunity. Because Time Spent Awake = Eating + Music, when Music decreases, and Time Spent Awake stays the same, Eating must increase. This would suggest that the subject will gain mass over the course of the experiment. However, Eating = (Moving x Thinking) + k; therfore when Eating increases, k is a constant and so cannot change, and Moving would not change, therfore the subjects thinking capacity must also increase.
Note: k = the "can i be bothered" constant
Variables:
Uncontrolled:
hearing music without input from subject, incuding other peoples phones, stereos, television, etc.
Controlled:
subjects proximity to music, subjects proximity to access to music, subjects ability to secretly get someone else to play them music.
Variables Measured:
Time taken for subject to give in before they kill themself.
Equipment:
Clock
A Metalhead
Safe to lock musical implements
Diagram Of Setup:
Diagram Of Setup:
Method:
Step 1 - Set up as shown in diagram.
Step 2 - Remove all musical implements, including MP3, delete all music on phone, refrain from using music on laptop.
Step 3 - record seconds/minutes/days without listening to music in a table
Experiment will begin 3/07/10
3/07/10 Just in time to watch the Le Tour de France
ReplyDeleteok bets are on, i reckon you'll not last a week, partially because its holidays, and partially because there will be parties and gatherings where there will be music and the chance for metal to be played, thereby contaminating the subject and thus making all results less credible and in a way void
ReplyDeleteas well as, Eating = (Moving X thinking)/J(The junkfood/vegetable/health constant)
the value of the snacks and/or meals that are comsumed as a result of eating healthy food, the value of "j" decreases, and thus the thinking increases, but bad food is a greater "j" constant and thus makes moving and thinking lessened, as junk food makes you stupid i.e. subject and case, joe hili.
therefore you must take into account the Junk Food Constant or JFC (not to be related to KFC although it does make the JFC increase so they are a circle relation)
This experiment relies too much on trusting someone not to listen to music even if they were at home by themselves...therefore, the lack of discipline of the teenager will render this experiment VOID
