This sound-suppressing silk can create quiet spaces

If they can keep the price at a reasonable level, this would go a long way to treating shared listening spaces (living rooms, etc.).

Interesting for sure! Thanks ...😊

That may be cheaper than building my house of stereo ;)

A wind screen like that in a convertible when placed behind your listening chair along with a low speed fan whose blades are treated with natural low shear materials will increase laminar flow in and around your listening space. Result is better everything. TomD

Thank you so much for posting. I've been kinda obsessed with how noise cancellation could graduate from earphones to bigger scales, but the best answers I've always gotten is that it would take too much energy or would be not feasible for other (practical engineering) reasons.

This could have major (positive) health implications. See this story (about noise) in the New Yorker.
