How Science Got Sound Wrong


I don't believe I've posted this before or if it has been posted before but I found it quite interesting despite its technical aspect. I didn't post this for a digital vs analog discussion. We've beat that horse to death several times. I play 90% vinyl. But I still can enjoy my CD's.

Hahahhahaha. 

What a macaroon this guy is.

He touches on a few random scientific and audio points, like yes, we do experience sound with the body, and then acts as if he's just suddenly discovered something no one has researched.

Anyone really interested in how we localize sound should please search for "Head Related Transfer Functions."


Honestly, this guy is one of many many "gurus" I have read who do the same thing. Put together a number of things readers may know about, and then come up with entirely new ideas, which aren't really knew, and aren't really true. It is so depressing.
PS - If you like vinyl or R2R, that's' fine, I'm not arguing you should stop liking it. I just don't think this author is bringing anything to the table.
@erik_squires This really yanks your crank doesn't it? I knew noting about "Head Related Transfer Functions." etc and actually learned something from the article. He has a PhD and maybe had to write a book.
