Some lighter reading - I just learned about this. The perfect field trip for this group's membership:
http://www.audium.org/ "Audium is the only theatre of its kind in the world, pioneering the exploration of space in music. The theatre's 176 speakers bathe listeners in sounds that move past, over, and under them. "Sound sculptures" are performed in darkness in the 49-seat theatre." Audium has been around for awhile: http://www.audium.org/omhpp.cgi?src=archive/archive_history.hpp with 4 channels (8 speakers in 1960) and growing from there. Okay, the speakers can *move* - cheating! Anyone from this list been to Audium? I've not been yet, but am curious. My first post ever to this group after lurking for 7+ years.
