As we get closer and closer, more details emerge. That's when we make a grand realization.

The world isn't reflecting sound.

It is made of sound.

Your cells can hear
Uncovering the relationship between life and #sound

There's a sensation that you experience -- near a plane taking off or a speaker bank at a concert -- from a sound so total that you feel it in your very being. When this happens, not only do your brain and ears perceive it, but your cells may also.

EurekAlert!Your cells can hearKyoto, Japan -- There's a sensation that you experience -- near a plane taking off or a speaker bank at a concert -- from a sound so total that you feel it in your very being. When this happens, not only do your brain and ears perceive it, but your cells may also. Technically speaking, sound is a simple phenomenon, consisting of compressional mechanical waves transmitted through substances, which exists universally in the non-equilibrated material world. Sound is also a vital source of environmental information for living beings, while its capacity to induce physiological responses at the cell level is only just beginning to be understood. Following on previous work from 2018, a team of researchers at Kyoto University have been inspired by research in mechanobiology and body-conducted sound -- the sound environment in body tissues -- indicating that acoustic pressure transmitted by sound may be sufficient to induce cellular responses.

Piero Umiliani, who is one of the characters of the – otherwise mostly fictional – graphic novel Giètz! was big into synths. He owned for example a EMS VCS-3 and made a few electronic soundtracks (here's an example: https://pieroumiliani.bandcamp.com/album/synthi-time).
Couldn't help but make this little self-parody of the comic, with a slighly anachronistic twist.

A four panel comic in b&w.

Panel 1: Piero Umiliani sits with Nico, the main character in a slylish and luxurious living room. They are small talking about jazz.
Umiliani: I've heard many good things about you, you should come and see me in Milan!
Nico: Milan… that woudl be amazing!

Panel 2: Close up of Umiliani
Umiliani: Have you ever seen a modular synthesizer?

Panel 3: Umiliani moves to a medium-size eurorack synthesizer sitting on a shelf.
Umiliani: This is my new eurorack system. Listen to the pulsar module going into the modal resonator!

Panel 4: medium shot of Nico, his face is shocked, eyes and mouth are wide open. Cats shooting lasers from their eyes appear behind him.

This was posted by DIY PERKS on TikTok https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSrX1j5AF/ and is a pretty cool use of existing knowledge & understanding. I especially like how this utilises nothing that goes beyond an HS education. Brilliance is the marriage of seemingly disjoint concepts to something new. Also demos the diffs between #innovation & #discovery. They discovered the interaction of #sound & lightening, then invented #tech to manage it
