DEEP DOWN IT'S ALL WAVES
Pärre Bonk II (1885–1943) dabbled in a vast variety of scientific theories, principles and inventions, but it was not until 1932 that he was able to draw all these threads together in a unifying theory of wave mechanics that unleashed a gamut of new technologies.
All energy is vibration. From Gamma waves at a frequency of 1022 through the visible spectrum at 1014 and on through radio, and then to music at its lowest audibility of 25 Hz - all is one long salami of waves. And anywhere you slice the salami, you get a clock running at a different speed. The ability to convert one form of radiation to another lies at the core of many Bonk technologies. From the biomagnetic Kosmo to the Paranormal gun and up to the Quasar of today - the key that unlocks all these secrets is the science of electromagnetism, which is the transfer of packets of energy from one atom to another.

Stimulated by fantastic displays of the Aurora Borealis in 1915, Pärre Bonk postulated the existence of electromagnetic fields that he called the Van Gogh Belts. These striations of powerful magnetism emanating from the poles were found to contain geopathic capillary strata which were the key to the flight of Bonk electromagnetic balloons. The interaction of cosmic rays with the radon-charged enochite dust in the ‘balloon’ created a magnetic field differential which provided the lift for the balloon to ascend.

Launched in Chicago in 1948, where it was quickly nicknamed 'The Flying Pig', the '45' played a significant role in the energy-consuming industrial expansion of the post-war period, especially in the USA, where almost 50.000 '45's were sold in 1949. By 1950, almost all Gnagg Booster production had been moved to North America, where an office was established in New York and a factory in Philadelphia.
A DEFUNCTIONED WORLD
By 1962, the manufacturing base of Bonk Business Inc. had reached a peak of labour-intensivity. A decade later, the installation of factory automation had been completed and a new range of Raba Hiff industrial machinery was going into production.

This narrow spectrum booster was designed to convert psychedelic cerebraic energy from large concert audiences in the late 1960s into electrical power for stage equipment. In the largest 'Darshan' configuration, the Freakwave Transmuter could produce 30.000 watts. Production was discontinued in 1974, but the Freakwave is still manufactured under licence in India.
The Scandinavian band, The Sheets, used the Freakwave on stage to power their backline.
The Freakwave Transmuter was the last craftsman-made machine.

The DEF-II pioneered the use of passive photon radiation. Renowned for solid durability and outdoor mobility, it is still in service in developing countries around the world. Production was licensed to the Shanghai Sheet Metals Corp. in 1996, to supply rapidly growing demand in China.
The breakdown of authority in the late 1960’s caused many to question the Protestant work ethic. A spreading worker malaise was testing the loyalty of the work force. Bonk workers demanded more leisure time and proposed the dropping of minor components from the Raba Hiff machines. Management agreed, and was surprised to find that sales held steady. When the elimination of further components produced increased sales, there followed a program of Defunctioning to dispose of the working innards of the entire Raba Hiff range. Within twelve months, our happy workforce was on a ten hour week.
The placement of these defunctioned machines in executive suites, offices, studios, and on the factory floor, has been proved to increase overall output due to increased staff job satisfaction. The ‘presence’ of the Raba Hiff range is achieved by patented advanced photon radiation technology.
