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.

I don’t do this too often but I’m going to reveal something about the Teleportation Tweak. Introduction to How the Teleportation Tweak Works (the whole story can finally be told),

“Now, there’s been a lot of speculation that the Teleportation Tweak involves sending subliminal messages over the phone - which actually isn’t a bad idea lol ..."you are getting sleepy and your system sounds just like a really really big system...Magicos and Continuum Caliburn and the really big DarTZeels..." or sending frequency sweep audio signals or low frequency demagnetizing fade signals over the phone, akin to the demag tracks of the XLO Test CD. But those aren’t what I do, not even close and a little too mundane, anyway. Fact is, when I do the Teleportation Tweak for a customer his system doesn’t have to ON at the time, nor does he even have to be in the house! Hel-looo! So, here’s what I’m going to do. I’m going to give away some of the "tricks" involved with the Teleportation Tweak. Watch this space. I will be running around doing a bunch of things today and the next few days and will be filling in the blanks on the fly.”
Teo,

You knowledge of modern engineering especially research w.r.t engineering is rather "limited". Using Queen’s as an example of the rest of the world is rather "limited". Many universities specifically have Engineering Physics disciplines in fact (my undergrad). Research at the bleeding edge of things w.r.t. engineering disciplines, whether semiconductors, AI and information theory, even materials, etc. are not anything like basic mechanical engineering, civil engineering, and even electrical engineering, and your attempts to paint all engineering as such only shows lack of experience on your part. There is a big difference between day to day implementation engineering, engineering R&D, and pure research in engineering fields.

I actually talk to professors at universities fairly often. I also talk to engineering professors often. It not rare at all for cross-disciplinary research either as the lines between the two disciplines often blur except when you get into theoretical physics, which very few, even at the university level are involved in (most experimental physics is very engineering like by the way).

And no, they would not take exception with "how" you say it, they just would not agree. You are conflating all engineering with simple implementation engineering which is absolutely not true, and you are conflating all physics (and science) as one of pure theoretical research, which again is very much not true.

Go to any university and ask any professor of physics if they think what I say is true or not. They may take exception with how I’m presenting it or wording it, but..conceptually, re the idea of reality itself...they will agree.

But the full nature of the loadine as seen by science, is one of all theory, as.... with no anchor point, it can’t be anything else. The science and physics....recognizes and attempts to deal with the box and the turtle, or tries to deal with the misty obscured ends of the loadline.

At Virginia my Aerospace Engineering program like any school included mucho physics, theoretical physics, statistical thermodynamics, mucho math, chemistry, theoretical propulsion, fluid dynamics (physics), statics and dynamics (uh, physics), nuclear engineering (physics), indeterminate structures, and many other courses.
At the University of Toronto, many of the Engineering disciplines like Electrical and Computer, Biomedical, Aerospace, and Engineering Physics were split out from some of the more "traditional" engineering disciplines into a sub-Department called Engineering Science.


This is the background on Engineering Physics, which is specifically administered within the Department of Engineering Science, in the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering.


"The Department of Physics at the University of Toronto, together with the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering, created the Engineering Physics program in 1934 (called Engineering Science since 1965). The Physics Major continues to attract students with a keen aptitude for physics who see the creative potential for combining this with an engineering degree. Graduates appreciate the high degree of flexibility provided to them in terms of the design of their program across a wide spectrum of theoretical and experimental physics courses."
As far as I know they don’t teach this in Engineering school. “If you consider the short answer as a kind of joke the answer to what is relativity is that formerly it was believed that if all material things disappeared out of the universe time and space would be all that was left. But according to relativity theory time and space would disappear along with the things.” A. Einstein
