Could someone answer me this: Where's the thrill in fine audio
reprodcution? I read somewhere that some guy got "a thrill out of the illusion that [he] could step forward and shake John Coltrane's hand". Is that what thrill's you about high quality audio reproduction? Or is audio a backdrop to some of life's other great delights - parties, sex, vacuuming... You could say that I'm a thrill researcher. I've been conducting interviews with people about their thrill experiences at the website www.chromo11.com. Feel free to discuss my question here [though I may not be around much as I'm on about 100 groups at once], but if anyone feels they've something to say outside your group, then please visit the site and answer a series of thoughtful questions. I'll meet you there! Thanks Brendan email: thrill@chromo11[dot]com web: www.chromo11.com THRILL NOTES: 1. thrill can come under many other guises - maybe you've met with pleasure or delight? 2. sometimes the tame can be wild and vice versa; don't judge yourself unfairly. |

om Could someone answer me this: Where's the thrill in fine audio reproduction? Emotional reaction to music. I read somewhere that some guy got "a thrill out of the illusion that [he] could step forward and shake John Coltrane's hand". Is that what thrills you about high quality audio reproduction? Not exactly, but not that far off. Or is audio a backdrop to some of life's other great delights - parties, sex, vacuuming... Some experiences are plenty exciting based on their own merits, no added music required. But, there's something to be said for audio as figurative flavor enhancement for experiences that are more pedestrian. |

Or is audio a backdrop to some of life's other great delights - parties, sex, vacuuming... It depends upon the person's frame of reference. I've been a musician and vocalist in the past(no record contracts - lol) and reproduced music is completely underwhelming compared to live or better yet, creating it with others. Yet, to my mother, listening to her music at home and live gets the same reaction. But, yes, for most people by the time they get into high-end audio, the magic is gone. |

Hi Arny,
"But, there's something to be said for audio as figurative flavor enhancement for experiences that are more pedestrian..." Now this has got me intrigued. It matches what's been written about the effects of some drugs, they don't thrill themselves but raise existing experiences to a different level. And it's certainly true that if you removed the 'banging music' from a carny the atmosphere would become deflated. But that's a really unrefined example. The carny's all about turning everything onto max and shocking the system. Do you have a more refined personal example of when you can remember audio making a difference to a pleasurable moment? I'd really like to interview you about it. This angle would make a fine addition to my thrill interview collection. If your able, please go to www.chromo11.com and follow the instructions for the interview (a series of standard questions that you can complete at your leisure). Or I can email you a copy if you prefer. I hope you can help. Regards Brendan Brendan Walker - thrill@chromo11[dot]com Research Fellow Royal College of Art, Kensington Gore, London SW7 2EU, England. +44 (0)20 7590 4573 |

What really killed young Nate? Only the beast in you would know. But after the fact, here's what Google know... you more than just tried to **** his dead cadaver, you actually grope and sodomize him during the wake after hours and post to RAO during that same day just so to get your mind off it. No one really know the exact number of children and young adult in your congregation you have molestedly sodomize in the past and/or currently in the plan, but as penance and atonement to all your wrongdoings, I hope the court finds you guilty soon with regards to the Wheeler's case, you insatiable pedophile sodomizer. And so, with your current legal troubles, I hope the bums in prison appease your unrequited love and addiction for ass ****ing, God willing. **** you. --- Audio content: I like interconnects, cables, and wires of different colors and geometry, I like them all. I had Red Dawn to Wireworld, oh what a thrill. |

JBorg's egregious pedophile fantasy snipped in the interest of common decency Hey George is this a friend of you ? ![]() Ya think? Ya think maybe George does sockpuppets? Hey Mr. Wheeler are your children also read RAO ? ;o) Sockpuppet Wheel's wife and daughters only read RAO when he calls them over to the CRT, so he can add their names to his little vanity law suit. One of Sockpuppet Wheel's co-conspirators revealed the thinking behind it all a few days ago. Their goal is to show that they can libel me as much as they want with impunity, but should I libel one of them even a little, I get taken to court. It's your basic dominatrix mentality at work. Mentally add sockpuppet Wheel's signature under JBorg's. He's laughing his ass off. For him, its a male dominance thing. Poor man seems to have only had daughters... I'm afraid that *YOU* are (unvoluntary ?) contributing to this exacerbation of the debate. You think there's a chance that JBorg's was so thoroughly compelled by his obvious mental problems to post this egregious pedophile fantasy, that we could call the act involuntary? LOL! Publicly agree or not agree doesn't matter *WE* know that it's true. I think that George and his clique are really upset by all the on-topic discussion of audio around here lately. They get insecure when people start talking about things they haven't got a clue about. So they staged this. |

![]() Sockpuppet Wheel's wife and daughters only read RAO when he calls them over to the CRT, so he can add their names to his little vanity law suit. Arny, who told you I have a wife and daughters? Are you now stalking me? Should I worry about what is in my mailbox? If you plan to stalk me I will happily take this to the police. KEEP MY FAMILY OUT OF YOUR SICK SOCIOPATHIC CROSS HAIRS. Was that clear? Arny said One of Sockpuppet Wheel's co-conspirators revealed the thinking behind it all a few days ago. Delusions of consiracies noted. Arny, you have the summons and the complaint, do you see more than one plaintiff? Arny said Their goal is to show that they can libel me as much as they want with impunity, but should I libel one of them even a little, I get taken to court. More delusional nonsense. I have never accused you or anyone else of pedophilia so you are basically lying about a consipracy to libel you that includes me. Besides you have libeled many others on RAO who chose to fight fire with fire rather than to take legal action I like the fact that you have admitted that you libeled me though. That makes an easily proven case even easier to prove. Arny said It's your basic dominatrix mentality at work. Bizarre psycho-analysis premised on paranoid delusions of conspiracies noted. Arny said Mentally add sockpuppet Wheel's signature under JBorg's. He's laughing his ass off. More delusions. Arny said For him, its a male dominance thing. Poor man seems to have only had daughters... I guess you want to prove that even a lawsuit doesn't serve as a lesson in conduct. |

Arny said You're really weak about the concept of reliable evidence, aren't you sockpuppet Wheel. Given the fact that you were wrong about my existance and you are wrong about my family I'd say you are the one struggling with the concept of reliable evidence. I said That is creepy even for you. Arny said No, its how things work. It's how things work? I didn't exist a few weeks agao and now I have a family complete with daughters? That isn't how things work in reality Arny, it's how they work in your mind. The two are completely unrelated. I said I noticed you didn't answer the question. Who told you I have a wife and daughters? I didn't tell you this. Who did? Arny said I answered it. No. Arny said However that was a reasonable presumption. It was a presumption for sure. Arny said Perhaps you don't have a wife and daughters but have a mother and sisters. Or many other possibilities. Why anyone would assume I would allow a daughter to read your accustaions of pedophilia is beyond me. I said KEEP MY FAMILY OUT OF YOUR SICK SOCIOPATHIC CROSS HAIRS. Arny said Well, sockpupppet Wheel, didn't you include their names as part of a money-making scheme you hatched together just lately? I said No. No such scheme exists Arny said I have legal proof in the form of a sworn statement, that such a scheme exists. No. What you have is a lawsuit. You predicted the clerk wouldn't even accept it for filing based on your misconceptions of the law. You jumped all over Middius for not checking up on the law but it appears that you are still guilty of the same thing. It is no surprise that you would find the demand for money in the lawsuit amounts to a money grabbing scheme. If you knew the procedures for limmited lawsuits you would know that a dollar amount is required in the complaint. I said and no child of mine or any minor of any sort was named in my lawsuit against you. Arny said So then who are these people that you mentioned? If you are foolish enough to let this lawsuit go to trial you will find out. Until then they are none of your business. I said Was that clear? Arny said Yes, their names were stated very clearly. I said Well, at least I know the source of your misinformation. It is you, moreover your poor powers of deduction. Arny said Deduction is based on evidence, and thanks for providing more evidence. More evidence of what? That you are in over your head? That's already been proven to anyone with a brain. |
