Studying The Energy That Surrounds You
Sensorial Sciences helping people to improve their quality of life by understanding the toxic energy that surrounds them.
Helping healthy and disable individuals to understand the real reality behind sound energy. The vehicle manufactories industry and it engineers lobbied the Government giving decibels measurements that are bias and not appropriate for human life or living. It is time for them to correct that!
Many times I wrote that you can not assess an acoustic noise event from traffic based on decibels alone. Who understands decibels? Not the general population and there is where they fool you! To assess an event of noise use these items I am going to layout bellow:
1. Source of Noise
2. Type of Noise
3. Range of Noise
4. Decibels
5. Frequency
6. Landscape Architecture
7. The human factor
Please, tell Congress and our Local Government that you are tired of lies and you want the true about correcting the decibels that is appropriate for humans not a machine.
Here is the question to Engineers:
- How far a sound wave from the source of the noise emission is reaching out at the spectrum landscape? I know you can calculate that "range" in meters or feet and I am sure you know that --these items described above are the most important ones to assess an acoustic event, not decibels alone.

Digital Interaction That's Good for Autistics?
"David Savill finds it hard to know if people are happy or sad.

Breaking down barriers for women in tech
This is such an excellent idea. The need to address this known underrepresentation has been thankfully picking up steam, and it's great to see something happening as a result.
"WOMEN ARE UNDERREPRESENTED
Some of the most gifted folks in technology are women yet they are rarely quoted as experts by the mainstream media and blogs. Furthermore women are significantly underrepresented on panels at major technology conferences.
TO BREAK DOWN BARRIERS
The teleSummit aims to break down the barriers and showcase the brilliant talents of women who tech out.
TO MOBILIZE A NETWORK OF WOMEN
One of our long term goals is to create a database of women technology experts to be used as a resource for the media and tech conference organizers. This database will not only provide a strong network of women in the technology sector but support the creative talents and energies of women who thrive in this arena."
The official site contains some interesting resource information. Here are a few things to think about:
"Top 5 Cities Where Women Work in IT:
1. Washington, DC Metro area - women account for 32.3% of the IT workforce.
2. Detroit - women account for 31.5% of the IT workforce.
3. Baltimore - women account for 28.6% of the IT workforce.
4. Philadelphia - women account for 28.2% of the IT workforce.
5. Atlanta - women account for 28.2% of the IT workforce.
