148: Do you hear what I hear?
January 20, 2021
Probably not. We all have slightly different physiology, and that's particularly evident in our hearing especially as we age. Hearing tests will show quite different responses to frequency range. I'm deaf in one ear and with damaged hearing in the other, as the result of surgery about 15 years ago. I've seen my brain create sounds where none are there and modify sounds to match what my memory expects. it's fascinating, thrilling and disorienting. What does this mean in electronic music where so much of the output is intuited through exploring different sound modules? I have no idea what you're hearing and really very little what I'm hearing. More to come...working on a new piece with accompanying lecture due out this next week or so.
