     Ever heard of Holophonics?  Pioneered by a company called Zuccarelli
Holophonics.  They have a demo cassette tape for $15 that is FASCINATING.  On
a good tape deck, with headphones, the effect is amazing.  Not only do you get
the left-right effect as is typical of stereo, but you also tell up and down
directions and forward and backward directions.  Popular Science had a littl
e writeup about it in a Science Newsfront a while ago.  The first side of the
tape has sound effects, while the second has music.  The first side is the
most interesting.  These are the sounds included:

                        Removing jacket
                        Matches
                        matchbox shakes
                        scotch tape
                        haircut/hairdrier
                        balloon
                        lemonade
                        newspaper
                        plastic bag
                        whispering voice
                        bees/water
                        birds and airplanes
                        fireworks
                        model airplane
                        racing cars
                        rain with thunder

The haircut track will make you flinch!  You can tell where the scissors are
around your head!

The $15 price includes shipping and handling charges.  6.5% sales tax for CA
residents.  If anybody's interested in ordering or more information (they sent
me a few articles), their address is:

                                Los Angeles, CA, 90064
