Poll: Audio Science Review in the World (2024)

[Jas0_0]

Hi from Tottenham, North London. Probably most famous for a certain football club, whose stadium occasionally hosts musical megastars (Beyoncé’s bass was large).

Less known as the home of scientist Luke Howard, ‘Namer of Clouds’. I like that cirrus, stratus, cumulonimbus etc were all dreamt up about five minutes walk from my house.

From Washington, England a couple of miles from The Angel of the North. The town's major claim to fame is being the ancestral home of George Washington's family.

If I was Dimetrios Synodinos; I would have guessed North America was the money-bet.

These [current] numbers beg for a recount!

Why's that ?
Two polls leading to about the same outcome... You have to accept cold hard facts.

Hi folks - I am enjoying this global feedback in Aachen (Germany)

I've been to Aachen many times. Why is that place blowing up?

 

[GeorgeWalk]

Northwest Florida, U.S.A. - about 40 miles north of the Gulf of Mexico. The driveway is about a 1/4 mile long. It is about the same distance to the closest neighbor. The elevation increases about 120 feet from the road to the house. View attachment 344335The image shows about 27 acres. The property includes 240 acres and is surrounded by another 450 acres or so of pine forest.

120' That the top of Mt. Florida?

well El Dia de la Bestia was a underground satanic-comedy of early 2000's with nice dialogues but i though it was more related with Plaza Castilla also in MadridView attachment 344425

That neon still stays there due to the film. And since this is an audio forum, every 90´s kid knows this one:

More interesting audio stuff from that film; take a look at this scene:

The priest is holding some underground Extreme Metal classics: Live Death from Suffocation, Welcome to Hell from Venom, Unbounded Terror (one of the pioneers of Death Metal in Spain, from Baleares...)...

Best part is that it was a real basement from a real shop. The store was Hard Vynil, and the basement was where Drowned Records used to be located (next to Estrella street). Why do I know? Because I bought Black and Death Metal right there when I was younger.

Hi from Segovia, Spain.... N41W004, rounded.

In Segovia's land, where melodies sway,
Notes dance through time in a rhythmic display.
Composer's haven, where genius takes flight,
Harmony weaves through day and through night.

Great buildings stand, a testament bold,
Whispering stories, centuries old.
People of warmth, with hearts so grand,
In Segovia's embrace, united we stand.

With attention keen, ASR's tested grace,
In every note, each sound we embrace.
A symphony of voices, meticulously accounted,
In Segovia's melody, every test is mounted.

Long live Zero and Zero Red !!!!

Very pretty but your water pressure must be terrible, do you just take baths?

 

[Jimi Floyd]

Greetings from Pisa. You will not believe it but the bell tower of this cathedral is actually leaning...

120' That the top of Mt. Florida?

The highest point in Florida is Britton Hill which is shown to be 345 feet above sea level and is located 60-70 miles WNW of here.

If SoCal skateboarders ever saw those "walls", they'd take on the challenge.

All our new public retaining-walls are now adorned with these skateboard deterrents:

That’s ignorant, similar In London and and actual metal spikes were used here 9 years ago, since removed

Essen, Ruhrgebiet, Germany (photo not mine)

Former mining and steel powerhouse and part of the biggest metropolitan area in Germany.

I believe my father's family migrated to Essen from France in the mid to late 1500s. They were French Huguenots.

Somewhere between North America and Oceania (I reluctantly voted for the former). The first one isn't my photo; I'm on the other side, and photos get cluttered by the palm trees:

On the other hand,

Through the window of our vacation house, where I'm gradually building a nice 80s vintage system:

So nice to see photos from so many places I love, especially Oslo (where I 'enjoyed' the first several months of Covid), Pisa (which I visit frequently, close colleagues at the University), and my home town of Chicago. Oh, and while I lived in Yorkshire, not London, during my years in England, COYS!
