194 THE PERFECT DESIGN IN THE UNIVERSE IS NOT BY CHANCE

If a device producing a more

primitive image than the eye could
not have been formed by chance,
then it is very evident that the eye

and the image seen by the eye
could not have been formed by
chance. The same situation applies
to the ear. The outer ear picks up

the available sounds by the auricle
and directs them to the middle ear,
the middle ear transmits the sound vibrations by intensifying them, and

the inner ear sends these vibrations to the brain by translating them into
electric signals. Just as with the eye, the act of hearing finalizes in the cen-
ter 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, were the sound level in
your brain was measured by a precise device at that moment, complete
silence would be found to be prevailing there.

As is the case with imagery, decades of effort have been spent in try-
ing to generate and reproduce sound that is faithful 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 thou-
sands of engineers and experts who have been working on this endeav-
