Psychoacoustics: Explaining Tonotopicity, Consonance, and Dissonance | Susan Rogers | Berklee Online

[@BigMTBrain]

This was really great, and I LOVE the physical analogies; however, would've been AWARD WINNING if supplemented with corresponding graphics and, of course, audible examples. Still, so very much appreciated!

[@torley]

I ADORE how you use the metaphors @ 4:34 with your mouth sounds, comparing to silk vs. corduroy makes for a more vivid example. The only thing this video is missing are some actual audio examples themselves!

[@shayeasy]

Susan Rogers is absolutely brilliant

[@ygzok]

I've always heard about psychoacoustics but never bothered to actually learn what it is. This video was incredibly informative. Thanks a lot!

[@jacobchateau6191]

I love the way this lecture was composed.

[@69Harveyb1]

omg 😉

[@AnalogKitchen]

Wow. I love this! I might do a video on how this would work using analog synthesis

[@kaspartambur]

I enjoy how you yourself can tell, that some information that you are presenting will be hard for the new listener and try your very best to help with hand gestures and speaking tone ! :)

[@dianamccandless7094]

NOW I UNDERSTAND! OMG this is fantastic to know (for sure). I was suspecting these things. I'm a numbers girl, so "very high integer ratios like 32/45...." I knew I had found the right place.

[@Jon-BEDM]

Awesome! Thank you for sharing this.

[@Thelonious2Monk]

Thanks. The 64,000 dollar question, though, is why we are so keen on hearing "smooth" tone rather than "rough" tone. I have no problem in touching corduroy but hate listening to dissonances. There must be an evolutionary reason for our love for harmonic sounds.

LOOOOVE this video

[@x1thesoul172]

I had to learn all this the hard way with much experimentation using synthesizers. I love how she presented it! Not sure how easily some people would follow along. But wow that was so lovely.

I am ‘some people’ and I’m about to watch this for the second time, again 😂

[@tonydeltablues]

Good one Professor Rogers - I'm off to get my corduroys on with my silk pocket square ;-) Thanks :-)

[@DougGrinbergs]

Interesting, complex math elements of psychoacoustics

[@colintesla]

this is my jam

[@youreright6627]

This is Great, thanks a lot

[@owendoconnor]

Brilliant

[@kalyankrghosh819]

Thank❤❤❤❤

[@luanaudio]

That was great! What subjects does she teach?

[@ethanshephard]

Music cognition

[@danielpittman889]

Her voice is somewhere between Lorraine Bracco and Joan Cusack.

[@AnthonyCarrier]

Psychoacoustics? I though that was me, "A lunatic with an acoustic guitar!"

[@donalgreenwood5890]

It’s not that hard to do so

[@joepalmer5251]

I like tacos

So: just Describe what you've discovered, proper-name the field of pursuit, and as much as possible associated with it, in academic language (Greek/Latin) and hey presto!... now you own a territory which affords you jobs, funding, occupation, status and the semblance of superior insight - but what's really being revealed is the obviousness and inadequacy of your interpretation, hence "Silk, Corduroy, Denim".

god forbid someone use a metaphor to explain science in layman's terms
