2017-08-18 23:29:38 +0000 UTCI also subscribed to The Sound Traveler. I'm blown away by your experiment. I watched the Munich video and I felt like I was wandering around the marketplace of Bonn again. I did that a lot when I spent a year abroad in Bonn about 10 years ago. I haven't felt that feeling in a long time.
2017-08-18 14:53:24 +0000 UTCFinally catching up my video subscription feed. I'm here because I read your one second disclaimer clip to the end.
2017-08-18 14:49:25 +0000 UTCSo, I'm now a patreon because I like to freeze frame your videos and read everything. So... well played sir, well played!

2017-08-16 03:02:35 +0000 UTCYeah the comments got a bit dicey on this one. I was rather impressed by the shot myself!

I enjoy your positive outlook and boundless enthusiasm for all the things that make the world 'tick'. Cheers.

2017-08-16 01:22:02 +0000 UTCI did not, I wasn't 100% sure I was going to make the video when I recorded the intro. Turns out it was really fun! You never know where things are going to go when you start something like this.

2017-08-15 22:55:13 +0000 UTCI should have stopped reading... I knew good and well I didn't have a cupcake in the house. But I'm happy to be here. I have been a cheerleader for these videos for years. Now I'm finally throwing some money at it. Flip chickens and twirl cats!
2017-08-15 22:34:56 +0000 UTCFulfilling my "blood oath covenant". Seriously, this is easier than "building a cupcake" (? - it was blurry).

2017-08-15 21:05:57 +0000 UTCDustin, Thank you for another fascinating video. This one is particularly interesting because my daughter was born with unilateral hearing (no nerve to one ear, fine on the other side). More recently, I've had a growth removed from one of my ears (an acoustic neroma or vestibular schwannoma) which cost me all hearing (and balance inputs) from one side. I've been trying to learn from my daughter how to improve my acoustic location skills while also trying out a BiCROS hearing aid. (wireless transmission of sound from the bad ear to the "good" ear.) Your pointers to articles and the general topic are of more personal interest than many other videos of yours. But all are greatly appreciated. Keep up the great work.
2017-08-15 02:46:14 +0000 UTCYou win, the blood oath is signed. Your sister is an amazing shot, the world needs more women of her caliber...

2017-08-15 01:08:43 +0000 UTCYoutube comments looked a bit dangerous so I thought I'd post here :) I'm already a Patreon so I guess my blood oath covenant is fulfilled right? Fantastic video Destin, I was all giddy about sharing the knowledge once I'd watched it. Never thought about vertical resolution before and the trick dogs do was the first thing I thought of once I'd put my mind to thinking about it. Oh, and nice shot by your sister, even if she did mean to hit the branch!

2017-08-14 19:58:38 +0000 UTCBlood oath covenant signed. (Fits well with the other educational stuff I support, but you know this means I can't also support NDQ, right?)

2017-08-14 18:17:53 +0000 UTCI already subscribe, I'm already patreon... Sorry to see so much drama on youtube comments about the rifles etc. There's lots of sane, responsible gun owners who know what you're doing is safe. Thanks so much for continuing to create such amazing videos Destin, you're keeping the internet classy.

2017-08-14 04:20:28 +0000 UTCI got smarter today and also read some forbidden things. It's amazing how we can read small text that has been compressed so far that most characters are indistinct and we mostly just interpret the shape and length of the words. I've been a patron for a while now.

2017-08-14 00:31:22 +0000 UTCI read a text on a youtube video and apparently that means that I have to sign up to patreon now. You really have to be careful these days. Well, it was about time anyway.
2017-08-13 20:45:48 +0000 UTCI don't know about wolves, but I have watched both foxes and coyotes while they're hunting and they do tilt they heads to better pinpoint the location of their prey. Even my house cats will do that as well, though I'm not sure if it is for better audio precision, or for visual. I do know that I have difficulty locating the direction of a sound because I've lost most of my hearing in my right ear.

2017-08-13 20:02:14 +0000 UTCDestin where are you going in colombia?! I'm from colombia and would love to know how you like it there.
juan E aponte
2017-08-13 19:48:50 +0000 UTCDogs' floppy ears are a result of domestication, and I'm assuming that kills their ability to resolve direction from spectral cues. Do undomesticated canines, like wolves and foxes, which have stiff, upright ears, not need to do the head tilt?
Adam Spangler
2017-08-13 18:15:30 +0000 UTCBeen watching your videos for a long time. Blood oath fulfilled.
2017-08-13 17:31:31 +0000 UTCBlood oath fulfilled. Apparently, I am psychic or you time-traveled my oath, because I've been supporting you a long time, but oh well. ;)

2017-08-13 16:39:59 +0000 UTCGreat vid - shared! Tilting your head is a good way to try n work out verticals - clever dogs :P Never knew you could mess up your audio positioning so badly by messing with your ears though - fun games!
