I need a haircut!
Friday, January 26, 2007
Have you ever gotten a haircut by a man, named Luigi, faking a bad Italian accent? No? Well here's your chance. Download the mp3 below, put on headphones (very important), play and enjoy your visit to the barber.
The technique of recording such pieces is known as Binaural Recording. These recordings are optimised for headphone listening and simulate your two ears by using two microphones as listening devices; as opposed to one microphone gathering both left and right channel information.
Enough talk, here's the mp3.

fuck i almost looked over my shoulder...
Man, did I have to sign up on that site to download the file? I did anyway, so doesn't make much of a difference now. File is downloaded, but I'm gonna listen to it later. Don't know why... and frankly, I don't know why I'm posting this comment too... I could have just listened to it and told you what I thought. Anyway.
Oh man! That was f*ck*ng amazing!!! And the plastic bag was just freaky! Pravin poked me in my side while I was listening to the thing (I had my eyes closed), and then the barber (or whoever) whispered something (in the left ear), and I thought it was Pravin, and I hit him in the tum... I guess I owe him an apology...
It is really mind blowing isnt it? :).
There are links to more binaural sound clips at the bottom of the Wikipedia page if you guys are interested.
amazing.....the whole thing was like i was really having a haircut...especially the click...with the fingers...wow
