The Borg are coming!

Life as a bilateral cochlear implant recipient. If the topic is new to you, check out this background information on cochlear implants; while the article is somewhat dated (1998), it does cover a fair amount of history.

Sounds are not the same at different spaces.

Tonight I went dancing at Mass party at 1015 Folsom. I hadn't been in that club since January for the New Years Day party. The entry space is much bigger now, and there is easier access to the floor. I wanted to see if the stereo effect at the last party on July 15 in a different dance space would be mirrored here. While the volume was loud, I didn't get the sensation of my brain creating a spatial analysis of the sound. Alfie explained that the music was muddled there tonight. That's effectively a good way to describe it! It's nice that I can tell the difference now in sound quality from one dance space to the next.
