World's Quietest Room You Say? 29 comments
willfree · 9 years ago
My company records pianos in an anechoic chamber. They put microphones in the right places and then hit the notes on the piano - the microphones pick up the sound as usual. The room is designed to deaden reverb, so you can record/analyse sound with a clarity you can't get anywhere else. If you want a room that's actually silent, you need no air - ie a vacuum, ie you'd die.

There's still air in there lol, it's not like you can't produce sound in an anechoic chamber. It's just a super soundproof room.

I know, but around here people tend to drop the e, at least in casual conversation

Nobody pronounces literally with four syllables, do they?

The "shadow" of a Hiroshima victim, permanently etched 21 comments
willfree · 9 years ago
This whole piece of stone is in the Hiroshima museum. It's the steps of a bank from memory, they reckon the person was waiting for it to open when the bomb went off. Anyway they've excavated the whole thing and moved it into the museum, which is a fascinating and beautiful and terrible place, and highly recommended.
Impressive! 11 comments

Your aggression and insistence on playing the man and not the ball undermines your position, cia. You're right about one thing though - you two will probably never agree and it's past time to let this hideous thread die. Let it go.

Fun fact: early Australian settlers used wombat dung to build houses before the first shipments of bricks could arrive from mother England

How's the view from that high horse, cia? Everyone has a morality, some people are more inclined to put their ego aside and critically examine its source and its context than others. You're looking pretty absent of sympathy yourself right now.

Why is it necessarily sad to to think that one day, reality will continue without us, without all the achievements that make you so proud and the follies you find so evil? I don't think that's pessimistic. It just seems natural to me.

I'm with garlog. I think the reality is far more complex than simple polar labels like "good" and "evil" can describe. What's normal for the spider is chaos for the fly, and all that.

Way to attack the man and not the argument, guys. Ad hominem much? English probably isn't his/her first language and they're trying to engage. Good job shooting them down, well done.

One time, I dropped a mention to the cashier at a video store that the girl I was with, who was really my girlfriend, was my sister, and then we went into the horror section and made sure they saw us making out.
