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:
Zuccarelli Holophonics, Inc.
PO Box 64770-294
Los Angeles, CA, 90064
As is customary to say, I'm not affiliated with this company...
