20211121 : Hearing experiment - results
Today I got a TV in the room. The broken one is still not working. They couldn't get some parts so they will replace the whole TV. This is a temporary arrangement. So that concludes my hearing experiment formally. It has been almost 4 weeks. Good enough I suppose... Here are the results... Procedure: Put on music/ songs that I am very familiar with, a bit loudly on my phone. Keep the phone closer to the right ear. Plug the left ear as tightly as I can. Close the eyes and listen. Do the above as many times as possible everyday. Observations: Unfortunately, I did not do a baseline correctly. But on a scale of 0 - 10, I would peg it between 0 and 0.5 before I started. Some unintelligible noises would come through intermittently and feebly and there was a constant shrill sound (like the one we would get from a picture tube tv with no signal) After 4 weeks of the listening, I think I can peg it at 3.5 - 4. The background noise is still there - but has changed from the shrill noise to so...
