If you look into the wrong end of a telescope,
everything looks reduced, 'anti-magnified'.
Is there anything analogous acoustically?
In both cases, the phenomena is described
by wave equations -
It is completely analogous. A telescope makes things look closer. A
directional microphone makes things sound closer.
If you look through a telescope the wrong way, things look further
away. If you point a directional microphone the wrong way, things
sound further away.
