SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the concept of transmitting carrier wave signals vocally, exploring the potential for using human vocal cords to modulate sound waves for communication. Participants confirm that while traditional carrier wave modulation is typically used for data transfer, rudimentary forms of amplitude and frequency modulation can be achieved vocally, such as Morse Code. The conversation also references cultural practices, like monk chanting, as examples of vocal modulation. The idea of genetically modified individuals using sonic waves for communication, as depicted in the show "Dark Angel," is also mentioned.
