Yes... it could be possible in some cases, but... where is the question?

        You've pointed the heart of the matter, although it hasn't began
with Classical music... Every kind of vibration (sound/light/etc.) has the
power to affect ourselves in many ways. The CONSCIOUS use of them is the
real hidden key that we MUST consider everytime we play/compose/rehearse
music (in our actual field of creation). It includes a MORAL side that would
be very interesting to discuss, but very hard to stand in these days... ;)))

        When you say STIMULATE everything seems ok... But when you say
MANIPULATE, it comes to me a freezing image of lack of consciousness and
resposability... Without consider other ethical options... ;)
        I think that the most important thing to consider is the utter
intentions of every work, of every composition, of every human creation. And
without arrogance and selfishness, I think we have to consider this very
carefully and finally choose our own side over the boundaries of the
conscious vs. unconscious field. I'm really convinced that composers has a
vital role in social development. But the moral of this role is fundamental
to be clear.

>please give as much comments as possible...
        I'm doing so... but I'm still waiting for your questions... ;)))

>Csound is a great tool for that. Ha ! ;-)
        For sure...                 


Hope it helps...
