How do we help those born deaf hear music?
Sound is the vibration of particles through a medium - ususally the air - and is measured with Herz, 20-20,000 Hz being the avergae range of human hearing. In some cases, these vibrations may be felt with the sense of touch depending on the intensity. it could be feasible to distinguish notes and octaves without the ears if trained to do so. One may possibly 'feel' the music in the air at loud concerts, have the vibration of a metal rod suspended by a string struck against a fence travel up and meet the hand not quite dissimilar to the percussion istrument that is the triangle, or even have that telephone ringtone that gives the impression of a buzzing bee; tuning forks too may be an option, but the writer is unsure about that specifically.
