like you can tell me all you want how the sound is stored in the grooves but fucking H O W
HOW DOES THAT GET INTO THE NEEDLE
HOW ARE THE VIBRATIONS TURNED INTO MUSIC THAT YOU CAN HEAR???
H O W
The vibrations aren’t “turned into” music, they are music. When vibrations occur inside your inner ear, your brain processes this as sound.
The grooves in a record are an analogy for these vibrations, a method of remembering them so that they can be recreated later on.
Put your hand on a speaker while loud music is playing and you’ll feel the vibrations. Those are exactly the same vibrations happening inside your ear when you hear the music.
But how do you capture that?
Take a surface that vibrates strongly when a sound is played, like the skin of a drumhead for example. Connect that surface to a little tool - when sound causes the surface to vibrate, the tool digs a little bit into some wax, leaving behind a pattern that matches - in proportion - the vibrations of the surface caused by the sound. This is your analogy (hence: analog music).
Now, when there’s no sound playing, you run that little tool back over the pattern. This causes the skin to vibrate again, this time in response to the tool running over the pattern instead of because of an external sound. The vibrations should match, proportionally, the original vibrations of the music.. and thus these new vibrations, if you were to amplify them, would be a recreation or “recording” of the original music.
That’s oversimplified of course and things have changed a lot since the days of wax, but that is very basically how the process of recording music worked at first, and the general idea of how sound gets from a groove in a record into your brain.

Thank you Science side of tumblr
I hugely appreciate people taking to the time explain stuff like this, as it helps put an end to the “wow, science is magic!” trope that’s become far too common.
One of my long term fandom friends (back from ye olde message board days of yore) has been posting for weeks about how her teenage daughter is “out of control” and she just posted in the facebook group about how her daughter has ruined Christmas by deciding to be a lesbian and the whole group just went “Karen, you’ve been writing gay m/m slash fic for three decades” and she went “but that’s different, that’s not REAL” and I’ve never tried to actively set someone on fire with my brain before but
“I came to you guys for support not to be attacked”
That’s funny, that’s really funny, because that’s probably how your child feels. You fucking shitheel.
Two of the other mom’s in the group just offered to take M for Christmas and keep her with them when school restarts because she deserves to be loved. One of them actually said “deserves a real mother” and I just spat my tea everywhere.

All the more fitting since the flavor is “Classic Salt”

Don Bluth only knew how to draw one man, but dammit he wasn’t gonna let that stop him.
To be fair, he knew how to draw two men
my absolute favourite thing about this post is that it says “knew” as if don bluth isn’t still alive asfdkjdgl
I’ve seen so many posts like that that I genuinely thought he was dead
Karymsky Lake is a crater lake located in the Karymsky volcano in Russia. With a radius of 5 km it was once one of the world’s largest fresh water lakes, but as a result of a recent eruption toxic gases turned this into one of the largest acid water lakes.
A lake of acid? Whoa.
“The Cake Is A Lie” is a genuinely brilliant piece of environmental storytelling in video games and I will never forgive you people for what you did to it
Alright I’ve gotten asked to clarify this post a couple of times now and what I mean by “it’s a brilliant piece of environmental storytelling” is that the place where you see “The Cake Is A Lie” first written is an entirely optional section of the game. You can only find it if you look in the right spot and figure out what to do. It’s not a necessary part of the plot, but it can clue you in on what is happening-that glados is lying to you and manipulating you-way before it ever actually happens. If you manage to find the ratman den that “the cake is a lie” is scrawled across the walls of, then you have made that discovery well before glados ever mentions a cake, meaning that if you were willing to explore, then you as a player can start to put together the larger pieces of the story without ever explicitly being told. It was a really effective way of letting the story happen to you rather than you being told what is happening and that interactivity is an advantage that video games have over movies and books and I think Valve handled it perfectly. Now if only they would make a game sometime this decade…
Leaks claim that Efi will create Anchora, which will be the next tank; Doomfist is not next; and apparently, Mei will get an origin video. Not sure what’s legitimate, but there it is
And Efi’s still voiced by Terry Crews
