Document Summary
Information reaching both ears to determine the azimuth of sounds. Interaural time difference (itd: the time difference between when a sound reaches the left ear and when it reaches the right ear. Hearing inside rooms: direct sound- sound that reaches the ears directly, even though sound originates in one place, it reaches the listener from many directions.

Auditory scene: separating sound sources: auditory scene analysis- the process of separating the stimuli produced by each source. Musical organization: rhythm: rhythm- music structures time resulting in the time pattern durations created by notes. It is possible to transform a series of beats into perceptual groups even though the metronome creates a series of identical beats with regular spacing: how we move may influence the perception of meter.
