Virtual Thunderstorm

Listen out for the car that drives by. Excellent example of binaural recording. There is no brainwave entrainment technology in any of these examples from youtube on this page, merely to highlight its potential as a means to convey a 'virtual first person experience.'

Again, why is this not used in games, movies or recording live concerts? Imagine popping in an entire eerie horror movie [the whole thing done with binaural recordings designed to put you in the viewpoint of one of the characters (who knows, maybe you die in the end?)] with lots of subtle 'hallucination' points where you hear a close by whisper, a far off blood curdling yell, someone with a limp getting closer and closer, or hear someone breathing down your neck and then 'bagging' you like in the virtual haircut video (see earlier post) then being beaten to death with a blunt object with headphones on, while watching a POV camera on a close up screen or in hologram? It's the future man and it's scary. And fun.

Scary tits man, scary tits it would be.  This particular recording is not very good though.  The next one, 'Thunderstorm' is superior in quality.

Will ONLY work with headphones on. Extremely entertaining use of binaural audio... have your 'virtual hair' cut online!

Just wait till you're bagged. Makes me wonder why scary games like FEAR and Silent Hill, bah, rather, all games, do not incorporate binaural recordings. They could even use sound to provoke a fear/anxiety response like I suspect they did in the Paranormal Activity bedroom scenes. Probably too much $$ and effort involved. Oh well.
