Episode 030 - Seahorse and Dumbo Octopus

This time around we become a Sea Horse and a Dumbo Octopus. Next week is going to be our awesome windows 7 house party and in honour of that we share with you a hilarious video the house parties. Also things got a little crazy this week with some audio illusions, so watch out for that little gem.


This week we decide to drink a Horses Neck. It contains Brandy, Bitters, Ginger ale and a lemon twist.
The reason we drink at home this week is to not pass out in a home we are trying to burglarize. Also so we don't get arrested for stealing an ambulance to get home from the bar.
Image of the week you say? Well there's two, a scary and a funny. First the scary:

And now the funny:

What's happening in the world this week? A man was caught with marijuana stuck to his forehead in a gas station and teen sensation Miley Cyrus has shut down her twitters. Also a man has driven an on fire van! In addition to all that a 64 year old woman has a fake third arm after a stroke (here is the video from TED I talked about) and a couple has burning tap water. That leads us to the jerk of the week: well a man has shot his fiancée in the night before their wedding because he heard something in the night.
We have a discussion about audio illusions as mentioned earlier, and they are really cool. One we can show you here is an Aphex Twin song which takes the spectrum analysis of a song which normally looks something like this:

Zoomed out the Aphex Twin song looks something like this:

But zoomed in it looks like this:

(whoa!)
Here is the software to do your own spectrum analysis.
Also, a man has mooned a train and got dragged to the next town (we think it might be our friend Derek).
You might want to check out the band we played this week. They are called The Zolas and you can listen to them here.

I enjoyed the episode, guys.

In response to your question about my current place of residence: I live in South Louisiana, inside a very cozy drainage ditch with all of my mudbug family. The weather has been perfect for about two days here; 50 degrees with a light breeze. It's usually about 95% humidity and 100 degrees (commonly referred to as "miserable", or "barely life-sustaining").

Oh, those temperatures are Fahrenheit, by the way. I can't imagine either of those would be too terribly comfortable in Celsius.

(50°F = 10°C, 100°F = 37.7°C)

P.S. Silly United States; too stubborn to use the system of measurement that nearly all of the rest of the world uses.

Other interesting audio illusions:

Shepard Tones

Risset Rhythms

These illusions are roughly analogous to M.C. Escher's famous infinite waterfall drawing.
