Yes.

There's the semantic context and then just the sort of spectrum, right?

And the intensity of that spectrum, meaning when I say spectrum, I mean the different frequency amplitudes and what that shaping's like.

Yeah, yeah.

And that affects how your neural system is changing, even at the lowest level of what, you know.

What it's your ears, your brain, your cochlea is getting exposed to, but then also where, you know, so that would be the lower level, you know, what sort of noise damage might exist, what exposures, but then also then there's the amplification of noise.

you know, coming from your higher level areas that are helping you know that these frequencies are more important in your context, in your environment.

There was a funny, like this is kind of funny.

There was a film called, I think it's The Sound of Silence.

And it started, I love Peter Sarsgaard.

He was one of the actors in it.

And it was sort of meant to be a bit fantastical or is that a word?

Is that the right word?

But in fact, to me, so the filmmakers had interviewed, you know,

talked to me a lot as had – and to inform this sort of main character and the way he behaved because I have absolute pitch and there were certain things that they were trying to emulate in this film.

He ends up being this person who tunes people's lives.

He'll walk into their environments and be like, oh, things are going badly at work or your relationships because you've got this tritone or you're –

water heater is making this pitch and your teapot is at this.

It's totally funny.

No.
