My picks from today at
#cfa2025 (the French acoustics conference):
- humans can locate a source of vibrations around them based only on the perception through their feet on the ground -- but not if they stand on one foot.
- There are auditory equivalents of the "gorilla experiment", demonstrating an effect of attentional deafness.
- There is a **HUGE** interindividual variability in the ability to detect repeated patterns in a noise.
