"Virtual Barbershop" - Foxboy - 06-25-2007

This is an amazing bit of stereophonic engineering, as a demo for some technical system or other.
Wear headphones for it, if you can. It's not loud, but REALLY effective via the phones.

them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.''

Yow. I'm listening right now, and the first few sounds made me think something was happening outside the headphones -- I actually stopped it to see what was making that noise.
(LaterSmile Enh. Good start, but I was expecting something rather more -- there was nothing here I hadn't heard from a half-dozen similar "spatial sound" demos.
I was amused, however, by the fact that Youtube popped up the Paris Hilton sex tape as one of the "related" recommendations.
