First patented in 1958, the Neurophone by Dr. Patrick Flanagan is a revolutionary device that transmits sound directly to the brain via ultrasonic stimulation—opening new frontiers in learning, relaxation, and cognitive performance.
What Is the Neurophone?
The NF3 Neurophone by Dr. Patrick Flanagan is a patented neurotechnology that bypasses the auditory system and sends sound directly to the brain through the skin. Originally featured in Life Magazine in 1962, this device has fascinated scientists, biohackers, and seekers for over six decades.
Invented when Dr. Flanagan was just 14 years old, the Neurophone uses ultrasonic signals to stimulate the saccules—sensitive organs in the inner ear—interpreting these vibrations as sound even when the device is placed on the skin, not the ears.
How the NF3 Neurophone Works
The Neurophone emits ultrasonic frequencies through electrode pads that can be applied to the forehead, chest, or other areas of the body. These signals stimulate the inner ear’s vestibular system—specifically the saccules—where the brain translates the input as audio, bypassing traditional hearing pathways entirely.
Dr. Flanagan theorized that this method of audio delivery may enhance blood flow to the brain, stimulate the nervous system, and promote a state of whole-brain learning and meditation-like relaxation.
Reported Benefits of the Neurophone
While mainstream medicine has not fully validated the Neurophone’s potential, anecdotal reports from users around the globe include:
Accelerated Learning and Brain Function: Users report better memory retention, enhanced focus, and improved language acquisition. Some EEG studies have suggested increased hemispheric synchronization.
Enhanced Sensory Perception: Many describe hearing through their skin—especially helpful for those with hearing loss or in noisy environments.
Stress Reduction and Mental Clarity: Neurophone sessions often lead to deep states of relaxation similar to meditation or binaural beats.
Better Sleep: Regular use before bedtime is linked by users to deeper, more restorative sleep cycles.
Increased Energy and Balance: Reports include better coordination, alertness, and an improved sense of physical grounding.
A Legacy of Innovation with No Negative Reports
The NF3 Neurophone stands apart from most biohacking tools—it has been used for over 60 years by thousands without a single known negative report. This makes it one of the most reliable and fascinating alternative technologies ever developed.
Whether you’re a biohacker, meditation explorer, or simply someone looking to enhance cognitive performance, the Neurophone offers a unique and proven path toward neural optimization.
Meet the Inventor: Dr. Patrick Flanagan
Dr. Patrick Flanagan was an inventor, scientist, and spiritual philosopher whose work bridged science and consciousness. His early invention of the Neurophone foreshadowed a lifetime of boundary-pushing ideas, from hydration science to pyramid energy research. His legacy lives on through his open-source library and the continued use of his beloved Neurophone worldwide.
How to Order the NF3 Neurophone
The latest version, the NF3 Neurophone, features an updated design and enhanced signal clarity. It is available exclusively through CoolestTechEver.com.
I’ve been blessed with some truly amazing clients over the years. The most world-famous? Oprah Winfrey. Out of all the developers in Chicago, she chose me to oversee the $28 million construction of her iconic Harpo Studios. With the help of my stellar team at Oxford Realty, we brought Oprah’s dream to life—on time and on budget. Midway through the project, I discovered, to my astonishment, that Oprah and I had actually gone to the same high school. That serendipitous connection with Harpo Studios—and the success of the build—earned me the Chicago Sun-Times Developer of the Year award.

But what I took away most from working with Oprah was the inspiration to follow my own creative dreams. That inspiration led me from building skyscrapers and corporate headquarters to making films.
My first famous client in my new life as a filmmaker was none other than Dr. Patrick Flanagan—a genius mind described by Deepak Chopra as “a gift to humanity.” Our connection came at a low point in my life. I had just returned from a peak experience–filming my Antarctica expedition for The Coolest Meditation Ever. Nearly broke and crashing on an air mattress on a friend’s dining room floor in Studio City, I was preparing for crowdfunding the post-production editing of the film.
To make matters harder, Elizabeth—the woman I believed Spirit had told me was my perfect partner—had gently told me she wasn’t ready for a relationship at the time. My confidence was bruised. But on my way back from Antarctica, I had filmed Patrick at Chichén Itzá, and that brief collaboration sparked something powerful.
When I called Patrick to pitch a full series of Flanagan videos, he was immediately warm and receptive. I kept it simple:
“Patrick, I’d like to produce a 50-video web series using your line of innovative PhiSciences products. Each video would showcase a different experiment, crafted to engage a whole new generation of fans on YouTube.”
Patrick didn’t even pause.
“How much?”
“Expenses plus $20,000,” I said.
“When can you start?”
I explained I had one last gig promoting the One Love Fest in Ojai, but after that, I’d be free to film the entire series over two weeks in early March.
“See you in March, Ken!”
Just like that, I was off to film a visionary. Patrick and I would go on to create the 50-part docu-series THE FLANAGAN EXPERIMENTS, an exciting story of Patrick’s visionary science and spiritual insight entirely ahead of its time.
The final days in LA flew by. I packed my gear, said goodbye to my pal Tom, and hit the road to Sedona. I thought I’d be gone two weeks.
I wouldn’t move back to California for eleven life-changing years in the renowned red rocks of Sedona!

Filled with wonder and presented with love by award-winning filmmaker Ken Sheetz, The Flanagan Experiments is a life-affirming documentary that honors the legacy of visionary inventor Dr. Patrick Flanagan.
Born on October 11, 1944, Dr. Flanagan was a child prodigy who began inventing at age 8. At 17, he gained national fame when Life Magazine featured his revolutionary invention, the Neurophone — a device that transmits sound directly to the brain via ultrasonic waves, boosting cognitive performance.
Over the next five decades, Flanagan became a legend in the fields of vibrational health technology, bioenergetics, and anti-aging innovation. His creations — including Crystal Energy, MegaHydrate, and the Sensor V Medallion — continue to transform lives through enhanced hydration, energy, and cellular health.
A Meeting of Minds
In 2012, filmmaker Ken Sheetz met Dr. Flanagan while producing the acclaimed documentary The Coolest Meditation Ever, filmed at the South Pole on 12.12.12. That encounter sparked a creative bond and led to over 50 illuminating interviews with Flanagan, featuring luminaries like Deepak Chopra and the BuzzBroz.
Inside the Film
This feature-length film curates the most compelling moments from the viral Flanagan Experiments YouTube series — which earned over 25 million views — to explore:
The Neurophone and its mind-expanding capabilities
