[sdiy] The eardrum and brownian motion

[Barry Klein]

Along these lines, there is a "weird science" site I'm sure a lot of you
have come across, here:

You take a box of stirring straws and cap the end and hold it near your ear
and you go wacko.  Mabye a clue to your theory.

I've been wanting to make this thing for weeks now.....

Yo,

Fascinating. Brings up something I discovered a while
back: if one stays in a completely dead room i.e.
anechoic chamber, after a few minutes it starts to
freak you out. Then I think about all these noise
generators you can buy that creates white noise to
sooth you. Perhaps there is something here.

Then there is the topic of the qualities of the noise.
Level, spectrum, distribution...

I recall the lunches I'd spend in the hills above my
place of work. Get on the Rice Burner, grab a burger,
and eat it along side a burbling brook while looking
at the trees. Very nice.
