Compared to cameras and sound
recording machines, the eye and ear
are much more complex, much
more successful and possess far
superior designs to these products
of high technology.

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
trying 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
thousands of engineers and experts who have been working on this
endeavor, no sound has yet been obtained that has the same sharp-
ness and clarity as the sound perceived by the ear. Think of the high-
est-quality hi-fi systems 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 prod-
ucts of the human body's technology 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; rather, it perceives sound exactly
as it is, sharp and clear. This is the way it has been since the creation
of man.
So far, no man-made visual or recording apparatus has been as
sensitive and successful in perceiving sensory data as are the eye and
