Default Risks of datareduced music

Hi,

Very interesting
article and hoping to see whether this article will provide some clues on
digital
sound, fatigue factor, High resolution format and etc etc.

Some excerpts:-

"the CODEC can reconstruct from
these an approximation of the original picture or sound signal that appears
as similar as possible for the human conscious perception, but is not
identical to the original signal. The danger of this exploitation of human
perception flaws is that especially by lossy audio data compression sound
portions get systematically destroyed, those although the brain would not
pass them to the conscious awareness, are likely necessary for the human
hearing's own perpetual calibration."

"The basic principle of modern audio data reduction is, that is to say, to
omit during storage exactly those sound portions those an average human
being would not consciously perceive. The white science likes to call such
methods gladly playing down "psychoacoustic", although in fact they have
really nothing to do with psychology of sounds (e.g. the realization of
noises as pleasant or unpleasant etc.) because their impact is on a far
lower neurological level since they function on a model of the cochlea in
the human ear and thus need to be called correctly "neuroacoustic" data
reduction."

The author seems to be a lunatic, his sig:
"teachmaster of LOGOLOGIE - the first cyberage-religion"

To me the whole article is absolutly bogus, born out of some drug abuse. The
poor guy suffers from tinnitus and rationalizes this as the result of data
reduction technics, instead of having a look at his listening habits and
levels.
It is the typical rationalization pattern that can be created by abuse of
psychoactive drugs or medicines. As long as he can articulate on the
internet and doesn't do harm to himself or others this is perfectly OK in my
eyes, but the credibility is not that high.

I just read on and he even claims to be enlightened. My guess with the drugs
seem to be right on spot.

Get real Chelvam, you should not be impressed by a pseudo-scientific
language, it is exactly the same with those quack-claims.

What?! I am taken for a ride, again! Opps.... need to tell my wife she can
keep her pink clothings.
Wonder how the college is taking his views.

Nice you took it like that, Chelvam, it's really a funny site. Must be one
of the college-kids, they get some free space and put up anything- he
actually mentions that on the home page, the university only gives a limited
space so he has to keep the pages as simple as possible. The most space is
dedicated to his "art". He likes the trance-techno "music", guess about the
tinnitus.
