Music with everything

David Jones

Nature, 1997, vol. 390, issue 6661, 663-663

Abstract: George Orwell once said that the purpose of light music is to prevent you thinking. Daedalus agrees, and he is devising a way of filtering out unwanted background music. The idea is to create a circuit that can distinguish between speech and music. Music has regular peaks at the intervals of the musical scale, and it should be possible to generate a circuit that detects and responds to this pattern. Any sound with the tell-tale musical periodicity in its power spectrum could then be cut out.
