We here at Entertainment Engineering love the strange and interesting. We’re curious people. So, even though this piece is an older one, we were intrigued and thought to bring it to you. 


Being in extreme silence—with literally no sound to distract you—your body becomes the sound field. You start to hear your heart, throat, lungs. It is said that remaining inside the chamber for too long can become disturbing. One thing we do know is that it will likely affect everyone differently. 


Do you think you could stay inside an anechoic chamber for very long? Below is a video where David Muller from Veritasium investigates the concept. It’s recommended that you listen to the video using headphones.
