God forbid you hear kids laughing too.

What bothers me is when people buy houses that are next to/close to things that can be a nuisance....be it pickle ball courts, race tracks, community pools/clubhouse/rec areas, small airports, etc and then complain about the noise, get them shut down, or cost them exorbitant amounts of money in legal fess and noise abatement that they are no longer profitable or enjoyable and end up shutting down.

For a country that put men on the Moon in 1969, we sure know how to sabotage quality of life. First, we had the automotive engineers decide that having every car honk its horn when the doors are locked, is a great idea. So what do we have?...a cacophony of intrusive noise at every grocery store, mall, church, school, cemetery, etc, etc. Brilliant! Now imagine living in a neighborhood where someone is shingling their roof everyday. Again, brilliant! 😵‍💫

Tennis is better, just play tennis.

I like how he said, you could make "one or two" microphones with unwitting spiders, but there are engineering possibilities that we can possibly use to copy the spiders' methods to make the billions of specific mics that we actually want.

Amazing!

Fascinating! Is there enough data to suggest this could surpass the fidelity of current microphones?

Entomology and engineering to the rescue!! Welcome good sir!

Fabulous talk!! Great to imagine all those spiders around us listening with their webs

Bio-accoustic lmao

I thought there was a sycamore grove that's larger than that, a few years ago.

Noise is the primary reason wind turbines are being largely banded from onshore use in the USA. They need to be 1-1/2 - 2 miles (~3 km) or more from were people are, which even in lightly populated areas is difficult to do. There are at least two main sources of wind turbine noise. Where the blades cross the support tower creating a hushed low frequency noise transmitted through atmosphere and where the blade tips cross the ground or water throwing air pressure into the surface causing noise that is transmitted long distance through the ground or water. This talk has the uncomfortable possibility of trying to represent the noise from a wind turbine's gear box and drive train as being ALL THE NOISE from a wind turbine which would be mild, when it is the blade's noise of a hushed low frequency high intensity that likely chases away most of the fish from offshore operating wind turbines. French fishermen protested an offshore wind turbine farm installation because their experience with operating offshore wind turbines is there is no higher level marine life such as fish around large offshore wind turbines. Once a boat is within 1/2 km of an operating offshore wind turbine the noise starts being stressful on the crew. It is almost unbearable when under it. Anytime there is a documentary on servicing offshore wind turbines the service crew had turned the wind turbine off and locked the blades before approaching it. On land wind turbines transmit sound through the ground that is of low frequency at around 15 Hz where human hearing typically is stated to only go as low as 20 Hz. That 15 Hz frequency at high intensity can rattle a person's skeleton. It varies with the strength of the wind and the power the wind turbine blades are extracting. The avoidance of addressing the noise from offshore operating wind turbines to higher level marine life such as fish may with the future high maintenance costs make them an obvious expensive blunder that was largely known from the beginning. There never being a realistic equitable balance from the large impact they have on their close by environment, high capital cost, high cost maintenance at high human risk, with comparatively little electricity generated that can only substitute when available and needs to be conditioned for grid quality power. There still has to be dispatchable power available for every MW of grid contracted capacity. Unlike onshore wind turbines that are a hazard if left derelict offshore wind turbines might be left derelict as artificial reefs and marine tourist sights.

I will look for a better recording of Pando that has no interference of explanatory dialog ;)

I certainly appreciate an extremely interesting and informative story such as this. Pando is indeed fascinating. What I do not appreciate about this presentation was the fact that every time any recording of the sounds made by Pando were played, there was also continual talking going on throughout each recording :/ It’s just like when you watch your local weather person. And they stand right in the spot you need to see on the map lol

great video

Thank you so much for this vital information

WHAT IS CAUSING SOUNDS AROUND THE EARTH? Friction between the spheres results in world sounds and weather changes. The reason is that the troposphere and stratosphere are rubbing together The stratosphere is 60 thousand feet above the Earth's surface along the equator, and 40 thousand feet above the poles. The changing of these heights causes friction, thereby creating sounds during this height equalization process. Also causing or resulting in the Earth's global warming and cooling. The sounds will leave when these spheres equalize. The end result is catastrophic weather globally including extremely high seas. Discovered in 2022 by William E. Nelson

what a waste of my time

🤍

Mary Elizabeth Brown is so intelligent! She is truly a fine example of virtuoso! Super cool stuff there!

What exactly would studies like these prove in court?

Program to increase Apple Mini Max Audio. Ap-p[le is always miserable Low! Pls.

Only one comment? This is a great, concise video. Thanks

Hffhdjhdfh

It's killing our wildlife. Marine Mammals are dying and washing up on the beach..on top of birds they kill and taking the natural beauty of our country. I went to Europe..It's all you see.there has to be another way.

Fear God

The first 2 jumping scale examples, i dont hear the illusion. I hear the pitch jump in each ear. Anyone else?

Where can I find the files to print?

Is there a way I can listen to just the recordings? The hydrophone root recording is oddly soothing.

Cripes...what b.s.....

Truly amazing ❤

Yes, more acoustics research please. The delight in the giggles and applause of the students echoes my reaction. As a left-hander, I noticed the high notes at first on the left, but I was able to shift sides easily at will. Some of my phantom words: Glug glug, too late

Lovely presentation! Thanks so much for this imaginative research!

Is it possible to hear more of these recordings - not in the context of the talk?

The amount of times "uhm" is said and the inability to keep track of a train of thought or complete a sentence without having to think is awful. Information is great but really need to work on presentation.

Sounds at 4:35 and 5:41

he is right...the quaking leaves sound is soothing

i read a recnt article on Pando and am here to hear the marvelous sounds

The shart machine 😂😂

Ever try to drive a combine through an offshore wind farm? You don't get far until you sink.

been 9 month. where is the widely avaible 3d print (or stl files?) i would LOVE to print tiny violins and give them to schools

Video has fine visual, but no acoustic content! I can practice my lip reading.

We have a campaign right now as giant offshore turbines are planned for our coastline on the East Coast of Australia

Don't compare noise to humans with dolphins and whales. We don't navigate by sound unless we're sight impaired. The studies aren't in yet on the long-term impact of the offshore "farms" * should be called plants

I wonder if it will affect them more than killing the planet with fossil fuels, their co2, pollution, etc.

There’s more marine destructive impact from submarines and warships using underwater technology that will be covered by some official secrets laws. I believe subs can transmit information at very low frequencies and covering distances far further than anything a wind farm could produce which likely could be interfering with whale song.

Neglected children cramped into unsuitable accommodations, with no activities to occupy them are the worst thing to live under.

You can legally pull the fuse if they force your car to have this noise maker. If the car was made before September 2020. They just tried to sneak this annoying sound maker on our nice quiet car. They failed. Nobody wants a humming EV. Luxury gas cars are just as quiet while backing and going forward at slow speeds so save the lies about noises. I have been driving all types of cars and have two EVs now ( 2020 Chevy Bolt Pre Sep 2020 manufactured and a KIA EV6 2023 that only makes a backup sound only ) and I demand they are quiet in forward. Backup yes but NOT forward.... that is a solid NO. I am not responsible for other's issues. Nice try though. The fuse will be legally pulled tomorrow first chance. Toyota was sued and they have to do it but I will not have this annoying hum on my EV ever. Can't drive slow with the windows down at all. Car was not sold with them and it won't be retrofitted just like seatbelts back in the day. Federal law states that a vehicle will not be required to be retrofitted with anything it was not sold with if it does not pose a threat to inside passengers. Outside are on their own.

Interresting. Now, make one that will cancel the crackling noise I hear (Menier's) so normal sounds come through.
