Hey all, Found this article in physics recently. It talks about how we have auditory illusions, making it impossible to distinguish reality when people only hear some things played. It means that we cannot figure out how to do some things just by listening to them, and we may not even know exactly what we are really doing to make sounds we hear when we play our selves.
this includes 1) sounds need to be slightly out of phase to distinguish between two tones and to locate spatially 2) harmonics can only be off by only so far before they are not perceived as being part of the same pitch 3) notes played quickly close in pitch will not be distinguished from each other clearly (what did Jason Ricci really play in that triplet)?, those further apart in pitch, but at the same rate, will be perceived separately 4) Scales played up and down simultaneously (would take two harps) will sound like a melody, not what either individual harmonica is playing.
kind of technical, but interesting...

I'd like to read it... however, you have to be registered. I tried but it didn't seem to work.
Is there another way of sharing it? Could you post it?/send it by mail?
