Sort of reminds you of this image from the paramedic's report...
Note that ECG heart monitors use a similar green light:
It has been said that the background screen was to resemble brain waves, and below is a screen shot of an EEG, which measures such waves:
At minimum, it is interesting that an image of an aspect of the body being monitored is the backdrop for the "Dangerous" song.
And speaking of "Dangerous", did you know - Michael Jackson began recording the "Dangerous" album on June 25, 1990, almost 20 years ago. Bit o' trivia to start your week.
UPDATE: Here is the video of the whiteboard notes for the "Dangerous" rehearsal, which shows notes about brain waves (thank you Jessicakthx):
Well this is interesting on many levels. First the EKG is from before the ambulance was even called. Second it doesn't look right. I am no Dr. but I have seen a few and this one isn't right.
ReplyDeleteHow very strange the green lights looking like the EKG.
I am not sure what to make of it all really.
However the scene from TII is as always amazing.
According to the rehearsal board where things were written on the dry erase board, Dangerous is supposed to have a brainwave scan in the background. So I guess that's what the green lines are supposed to be.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering what these lines were since the day I had the CD booklet in my hands, for the first time.
ReplyDeleteBrain or heart, I think the meaning is the same.
Life or death.
Thank you SC for pointing out this.
@jessicakthx Thanks for your comment; I've included an image of a brain wave monitor (EEG) as well.
ReplyDeleteGreat post! Very interesting the focus on 'body function themes'I instantly came to think of the picture I've seen of MJ having recorded his heart beat for the intro to Smooth Criminal.
ReplyDeleteIt could be interesting to find out, if the brain wave scan shows a brain in action or a 'resting brain'... Is it Michael's brain waves? I guess he didn't pick this just for the beauty, of it. Symbolism; but which?
LOVE in large numbers.

oh this is just getting better & better LOL
ReplyDeletebtw am sure u all have noticed that the time on the supposed EMT graphs shows 11:51:33 ..I mean do they think we're stupid or what?!
Hey Seeing Clues! I wanted to tell you that your the best! The issue at MJHD is their loss! There is a mod there that reminds me of Swolf and i think she is behind this! Name starts with A lol You don't need them they need you! You don't know me but I'm a fan. Take Care
ReplyDeleteThanks for another great post SC. Very interesting. And for to.fatima... Yes, Michael's supposed EKG graph says 11:51:33 when the 911 call wasn't made until 12:21, or something like that. How could that be unless the machine malfunctioned, but I doubt that.
ReplyDeleteHere's a good video about the TII Dangerous rehearsal and it includes the dry erase board picture I was referring to. Just thought I would post it, since a few have asked me where I saw the dry erase board thing. :)
