sound
21.4.07 @ 15:49 the importance of sound in life. imagine a world without sound. when you open the door, it won't give that squeaky sound. when you speak, your friend won't hear anything. after years of audio capability, what will happen if we lose it someday? we've all taken sounds for granted. when we are in the train we expect to hear the 'doors closing tiit tiit tiit tiit' sound. but if one day we don't hear it, what will happen? yesterday i was listening to the radio and there's this audience calling in to complain that mrt's door closing announcement is too loud, too frequent and it irritates her. why don't we think of it from another point of view, we've gotten so used to that sound, if one day the sound disappears, we'll feel weird like something's not right. but of course after some time, we'll all forget about it and go on with our lives. lets say we still our hearing, but everything's messed up. for example, when a dog barks at you, all you hear is birds chirping. and when the toilet flushes, all you hear is a person vomiting. imagine having screwed up listening. that's what i call hell. but come to think of it. which is worse? the abscence of hearing, or the malfunction of it? with love, xoxo |
