this is not meant to refute all the comments on the over-rated
importance of doppler cues in distance estimation, but: never
under-estimate the suggestive power of faked doppler shift cues.
this humble bear of very little brain once had the exceptional honor to
prepare john chowning's "turenas" (four-channel tape piece) for public
preformance. for practical reasons, we needed to play it on ambisonic
virtual speakers, so we did quite a few a/b comparisons with different
playback approaches.
it turned out that this monster of a piece is unkillable, no matter what
we tried. so this evil little bear of little brain but inexhaustible
mischievousness folded it down to mono, out of pure spite. the sound was
still all over the place. chowning 10, bear 0.
and here's to fake doppler shifts.
