1-really dont know, the book is called Dear professor Einstein, Edited 2002 by Prometheus Books (Ute Konner) literary Agent, SL Barcelona. Traduccion to spanish by Marta Pino Moreno. www.gedisa.com gedisa@gedsa.com printed in spain. the child asking the question is called Keneth Ashboro, form North Carolina.
2-i did not know about the orign of the Question, Zen Kohan, nor deep facts about Einstein.
3-we, me and Fanny, enjoy thinking about, beyond the real meaning/origin, thats the porpuse. like listening some CAGE works. I apreciate your contribution.
Why would she ask that of
Why would she ask that of Einstein? That question is an old Zen koan, and as most Zen koans, it is not a scientific question for which there is a yes or no answer. Its purpose is to make the student think in a new way. So, the question is an exercise for the mind, not a question of physics.
And while Einstein was a brilliant physicist, he once admitted to a psychologist that psychology was way beyond his understanding.
thanks
well, let me share
thanks
well, let me share something I read yesterday with FANNY : (I´ll try to translate a brief letter a child sent to Albert Eisntein):
Agoust 19 , 1947
Dear Dr. Einstein
we would like to know, If nobody is around, and tree falls down…would there be a sound? Why?
There is No answer at the book, but an empty page, it is printing error? didn’t Einstein have an answer?
Better for me, because the less I know, the more I enjoy the experience of making or listen sounds without expecting any results or answers. Just a Hobby.
On the other hand, when being part of a community, I DO care about their target, culture and rules.
I am really enjoying this feedback. but i got to "categ..and tag..some sounds" so see you, or hear you... also, is this an open topic...ya?
I think that you have
I think that you have contributed much more than most people.
So please don't be apologetic in any way.
Not everyone has the same commitments, and having a family is as important as work to most (if not more)- not to mention much more important than your hobbies, if you consider Soundsnap a hobby.
The community owes YOU!
Tasos,
1sr of all. forgive
Tasos,
1sr of all. forgive my poor ENGLISH, if dont understand something i say, please, let me know !!
2nd I´m not sure if posting this comments at the forum is really accurate, but I tried to e-mail you, not being successful, please, remove it if u consider better.
well, as you can see, i am uploading a lots of packs/samples, in-a-hurry-like way, after being away of SOUNDSNAP for quite a few weeks...why? ok, lets say:
3-Not being able to "multi-Upload" was a 10% of the reason, at least for a guy like me, meaning, HAVE-NO-PATIENT/TIME… for many reasons, later you may understand.
4-i am also uploading at freesound, and ..lets say...learning what´s about this kind of HOBBY, remember i told you i am just an amateur, not only about soundmaking,recording,processing,and-so-on, (the technical issue), but also at being part of a "community" as i think you are, therefore, I have learnt a lot about. another 10%.
5-my business is very demanding, having to travel a lot between Brazil and Argentina (where I am from), so 10% more.
6-the most important, I am a father of a 6 years old girl, FANNY, and for the reason of being most of the year traveling, I invest most of my time, when being at home, to enrich our relationship…(will talk about this issue another time, or better, if you visit FREESOUND by any chance, may see some work we are doing together about MAKINGSOUND, and also some posts about she at the forum). the 70% left .
ok, I am about to be out of home for a couple of months, this time with FANNY, and I really wanted to upload before leaving.
So…Happy New (y)EAR, to all of you at SoundSnap !!
ohh, I promised about tagging properly the already uploaded samples, and thers a lot more waiting x describing, I do it in a couple of days.
Happy new year rfhacke!

Happy new year rfhacke!
I definitely see your point that 'Sound Art' is not suitable for any sound that doesn't fit into any other category. I have changed the three first of the DS.F1 sounds to the 'Science Fiction' category and into the 'Space FX' sub-category.
This isn't totally accurate, but it seems to be the most suitable.
About the rest of the sounds, the tagging and categorization is fine, although I tend to consider a sound as an 'ambience' if it is longer than 30 seconds or so- so you could remove those that are less than that and place them into 'Space Fx' too.
Let me know if that didn't cover your question.
Hi, Tasos/everybody at SoundSnap
I just uploaded some samples and I am not sure about their “categories / Tagging”
mainly, up to now, I have the following “pack-like” sounds:
-DS.Catamarca.trip at Unreal, other ambiences
-F1.Br.07 at Other sports
-DS.F1.Passing at SoundArt/SonicArt
-DS.FH.Fanny tones Idem previous
so, after a research, found sounds like DS.Fanny.Tones at Telephone cat, with accurate tagging, then I shall move n describe them properly.
what about DS.F1.Passing? I really feel uncomfortable calling them SOUNDART, where do u suggest they´ll fit properly?
Thanks a lot, again, GOOD x the multi-uploading TOOL
