Things got very strange for a while, I was trying to reconcile things that can't be reconciled.  It feels good to say "I don't know, I'll never know, why bother?"

It is a pretty awesome moment when you realize you're free to just not think about something.  I expected it was like that "Don't think about an elephant" paradox, but really it's not.  It's a natural extension of being cynically aloof.

Welcome to the club :3  It's kinda strange for a while, believing there really isn't a god, but it's a very freeing feeling compared to believing in one that demands control and submission.

Out of curiosity (and ignore this if it's personal or you don't want to share it or something), what were you trying to reconcile?

You were listening to the future. :D

I am curious as to how easy such an effect would be to replicate in software, specifically as it applies to games. The dampening of sound and altering of time of arrival due to positioning of microphones and the mannequin head between them I would think would be quite easy, but I'm not sure how much the apparently ear-shaped parts would affect on it.

Oh jeez, I could feel it.  I could feel the bag on my head, and I moved away from the scissors that were dangerously close to my ears.

I could see this being a huge asset for video games.

Well, going to head out to MegaCon 2012 tomorrow morning. According to at least a Youtube video or 2, I think I chose wisely to postpone my arrival until tomorrow; that'll be when things get more interesting (people, events, costumes overall, exhibits). Got my costume ready (Going as a dwarven noble caught in a web (okay, I just printed a magenta curses ☺ on a sheet of paper. It was the only other ink in my printer that was still full)); takes less than a second to put on and off as I go about the place. I'm sure it'll catch a few people off-guard.

Wish me the best of luck, because traffic may be hellish once I get close to the place. Thank goodness I'm familiar with the roads on the way there. I'll be sure to try and take some photos while I'm there.

That was really fun. Reminds me of when I listen to the intro to Adventure Time with headphones on and I get that weird feeling when the "swoosh" sound happens. Like it's actually swooshing past my ears.

My eyes kept on doing the automatic "trying to track someone I can't see" thing.  I actually flinched when they did the "rapping on the back of your head" thing, and my hackles went up when the people "came closer" the way they usually do when people get in my personal space.

Oh, and I prepared to punch the guy when he whispered in my ear.  I could see hating this thing's realism in the end, actually... haha >__>

Actually I think it would be quite cool if games used this kind of thing to have people whisper in you ears. Maybe for a shoulder angel/devil kind of thing, or perhaps in some sort of horror context.

Yessss, I can see a lot of good uses for this kind of thing in first person horror games. Maybe I should talk to the guys who made Penumbra/Amnesia.

Haha, yeah.  The voice right next to my ear made all the hairs on my neck stand up.

If they had something like this in horror video games I'm not sure I could play them.
