Compared to cameras
and sound recording
devices, the eye and
ear are much more
complex, much more
successful and pos-
sess far superior fea-
tures to these
products of high
technology.
The situation in the eye is also true for the ear. That is, the brain is in-
sulated 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 measured by a precise device at that moment, complete si-
lence 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 endeavor,
no sound has yet been obtained that has the same sharpness and clarity
as the sound perceived by the ear. Think of the highest-quality hi-fi sys-
tems produced by the largest company 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 technol-
ogy are extremely sharp and clear. A human ear never perceives a sound
accompanied by a hissing sound or with atmospherics as does a hi-fi;
