Audio Illusion

I don’t know if I can call what you will hear now an “audio illusion”, but after I searched a little on google I learned that the real name is “Holophonics”

Holophonics is a form of sound recording that employs a dummy head recording arrangement and is based on the hypothesis that the auditory system acts as an interferometer. As with binaural recordings, the sound characteristics are most clearly heard through headphones. Holophonics should not be confused with holophonic recording (or holophony), which is a system of sound recording over the surface of a sphere.

Below is a YouTube clip that uses the holophinc technique in recording, but before you play it make sure you use a headphone to live one NICE experience! (Seriously). It’s about a virtual barber shop, and you will actually feel like you’re really there. The thing is so realistic that I turned around many time to check if there was any one in the room making these sounds.
