these vibrations to the brain by translating them into electric
signals. Just as with the eye, the act of hearing finalizes in the
center of hearing in the brain.
The situation in the eye is also true for the ear. That is,
the brain is insulated from sound just as it is from light. It does
not let any sound in. Therefore, no matter how noisy is the
outside, the inside of the brain is completely silent.
Nevertheless, the sharpest sounds are perceived in the brain.
In your completely silent brain, you listen to symphonies, and
hear all of the noises in a crowded place. However, if the
sound level in your brain was measured by a precise device at
that moment, it would be seen that only a complete silence
prevails there.
As is the case with imagery, decades of effort have been
spent in trying to generate and reproduce sound that is faith-
ful to the original. The results of these efforts are sound
recorders, high-fidelity systems, and systems for sensing
sound. Despite all of this technology and the thousands of
engineers and experts who have been working on this endeav-
or, no sound has yet been obtained that has the same sharp-
ness and clarity as the sound perceived by the ear. Think of
the highest-quality hi-fi systems produced by the largest com-
pany in the music industry. Even in these devices, when sound
is recorded some of it is lost; or when you turn on a hi-fi you
always hear a hissing sound before the music starts. However,
the sounds that are the products of the human body's tech-
nology are extremely sharp and clear. A human ear never per-
ceives a sound accompanied by a hissing sound or with atmos-
pherics as does a hi-fi; rather, it perceives sound exactly as it
