    Cool Virtual Barber Shop!

    I found something neat. It's kind of a brain trick/function. Basically you wear headphones and listen to the audio file, as if you were in a barber shop getting a haircut. You MUST wear headphones for this to be effective at all.

    I actually found it really surreal, if I didn't know better, I could have sworn someone was behind at some points. Just turn off all other noise sources, put on headphones and close your eyes.

    It is on YouTube here for your convenience:

    The bag and the whisper were the best parts. Pretty cool.

    It's called holophonic/binaural sound.
    Essentially it makes a 3D soundscape very, very cool!

    I heard one a long time ago of someone walking around shaking a box of matches, very eerie when it moves around behind you!

    Or movies in general, can you imagine having a nice set of headphones on in a movie theater? Especially on "first person" movies or scenes, like walking down a hallway when a murderer/zombies/ninjas are coming after you...somewhere.

    Whats funny is my brain created the sensation as if someone actually whispered into my ear, and my shoulder jumped just as if someone had.

    I think cinemas should have a headphone screening for some films, with 5.1 headsets like the Speedlink Medusas or similar, wired to each seat.
    It'd be so awesome to know the whole room is in silence, but to have the surround sound direct to you, saving the distractions of people slurping drinks and rustling popcorn!

    Here is another for your listening pleasure! Use good headphones and keep your eyes closed the entire time. I find it best to imagine your a sitting in a chair in a room or outside where this is going on.

    I discovered the virtual barber shop a while ago. It is hilarious to watch people experience it.
    The fiery red Torino rolled to the curb, we hit the pavement ready for action.

    Yeah this was posted in Tech Today a few years ago, but it is cool nonetheless.
