Or almost all forms of recorded audio for that matter. It is basically miraculous that a single speaker can create the impression of an orchestra; it obviously relies on an implicit instantiation of this same principle.
- kazinator 11y agoIt's miraculous that pressure variations on your ear drum reproduce the impression of the orchestra; the speaker just builds on that.
- jrlocke 11y agoFrom that point of view a speaker makes perfect sense, and that insight points to an even deeper importance of implicit versions of this transform.
- tacos 11y agoI don't know what that means. But "Two ears = two speakers" must really blow your mind. FFT is closer to what's going on with Cochlear Implants. Which both suck for some of the same reasons.
- tcfunk 11y agoBut really an orchestra is just a collection of various "speakers" -- tools producing sound waves by causing vibrations in different ways.
