In real life you would hear crickets coming from bunched up vegetation and that sound would have a location and its volume would change as you move closer or further away from it. But in the current ambient audio, everything is duct-taped to the player's head and moves with the player without any realistic portrayal of space

The rate of cricket chirps, which male crickets make with their wings, correlates to the temperature in their surroundings. Snowy tree crickets, as represented artistically here, are nicknamed "the thermometer cricket" for their accuracy. (Image credit: NOAA Office of Education)

For many people, opening their windows to a chorus of crickets is a hallmark of summer nights and fall mornings, but did you know that their symphony can also be used as a thermometer? By counting the frequency of their chirps, you can estimate the temperature with arithmetic!

Record your decision so you remember if you take a break or want to repeat your experiment later. Here is my example: Date: 7/28/22. Time: 8:00pm. I heard 2 groups of crickets, one high and one low. I am going to listen to the high-pitched group of crickets because they are the easiest for me to count.

In both examples, we are plotting data and drawing a line of best fit, or a line that goes through the most of our data points. Then, we find the formula for that line, which also serves as the cricket thermometer formula. The formula for a line is y = mx +b, where:

Including crickets in your diet is one of the most impactful ways you can reduce the amount of destruction you inflict on the environment. 


Woah, that was intense... Sorry, Mother Earth made me write it.

Okay, I have a CORSAIR CMPSU-450VX 450W ATX12V V2.2 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply (copied from newegg) and its about a week old. I've noticed when the system is idle.... the PSU sounds like a cricket. It stops only when I'm doing something ie scrolling a page or clicking something. Something seems to have to be consuming more power for it to stop. I have localized the problem to the PSU using a stethescope. I understand from kinda sorta similarish posts that it may be a coil vibrating in the PSU.

Question: Is what the mechanic said true? Is this really an all out $1K job? or is it a simple clutch adjustment? How would I go about asking a mechanic for a clutch adjustment to make the noise go away. And in your opinion, do I finally have the cricket noise nailed down correctly?

First I made a recording with some real crickets so I studied the waveform and the harmonic spectrum. A chirp is made by 4 impulses (20ms each every 30ms). The dominant frequency is 4170Hz with some 8340, 12480, 16680Hz (a flat C note). Now I'm working on the resonance.I didn't try it but I'm sure you can do a great cricket with the Operator (Ableton Live instrument) and with many other vst synths. The advantage with pd is that you can simulate the strange tempo/nontempo of the nature.I can give you the puredata patch if you like but I don't know how to attach files here.

and if you're not try a synth! Base the sound on a white noise hiss and fiddle around with other pre-sets (those that sound like a ringing phone) until you have something clear and resonant. There's plenty of free cricket sound effects on-line if you need inspiration/a reference point.

If you like I have two cricket recordings from Australia that I could send your way. First is a shotgun mic on a single cricket chriping loudly and constantly with lttle variation. The other is a stereo recording which features a group of crickets chriping at regular intervals. Into the recording a second group of crickets joins in. Send me an email to kyle [at] cannedgeek.com if those are useful to you.

I really should have more. There have been some great varieties of crickets I have been hearing this summer in my area. I am happy to just send those to you fo free - although if you have something to trade from Scotland in return that would be even better. ^^

I know it's not a cricket, but to get a good synthesized cicada sound I'd try taking a recording of a baseball card being flipped by the spokes of a bike tire and pitch it up like 2 octaves to get that cool cicada sound effect. I'd also experiment with different types of material - like an old plastic credit card or plastic spoon.

If not, your inverter is likely fine. I heard nothing in your video except the flipping of the switches. Do your "crickets" sing only momentarily, as the switch is turned on, or do they launch into a full operetta?

Attention restoration theory (ART) posits that stimuli found in nature may restore directed attention functioning by reducing demands on the endogenous attention system. In the present experiment, we assessed whether nature-related cognitive benefits extended to auditory presentations of nature, a topic that has been understudied. To assess directed attention, we created a composite measure consisting of a backward digit span task and a dual n-back task. Participants completed these cognitive measures and an affective questionnaire before and after listening to and aesthetically judging either natural or urban soundscapes (between-participants). Relative to participants who were exposed to urban soundscapes, we observed significant improvements in cognitive performance for individuals exposed to nature. Urban soundscapes did not systematically affect performance either adversely or beneficially. Natural sounds did not differentially change positive or negative affect, despite these sounds being aesthetically preferred to urban sounds. These results provide initial evidence that brief experiences with natural sounds can improve directed attention functioning in a single experimental session.

Beyond ART, two broad research findings support potential cognitive benefits from experiencing nature sounds. First, prior studies have demonstrated widespread associations between noise levels and health. Noise pollution (e.g., urban environmental noises with sustained, high-amplitudes) has been associated with greater amounts of reported stress and distraction (e.g., de Paiva Vianna, Cardoso, & Rodrigues, 2015), which can lead to chronic learning and attention problems (see Hammer, Swinburn, & Neitzel, 2014). Thus, natural sounds may improve aspects of cognition relative to urban sounds because these two classes of sounds generally differ with respect to their amplitude in the real world (see McDonald et al., 1995), with nature sounds being thought to provide a quiet respite from urban environments (Mace, Bell, & Loomis, 2004). In this kind of framework, however, nature sounds may not confer any cognitive benefits relative to urban sounds when presented at the same amplitude.

A second reason why natural sounds may improve cognitive functioning is captured by stress reduction theory (SRT; Ulrich, 1983). SRT asserts that the aesthetic and affective value of experiences with nature can lower stress levels, which may in turn benefit cognitive performance. In support of SRT, natural sounds have been shown to reduce physiological symptoms of stress and improve affect (e.g., Alvarsson, Wiens, & Nilsson, 2010; Benfield, Taff, Newman, & Smyth, 2014; Ulrich et al., 1991), and, moreover, certain classes of natural sounds (birdsong) are perceived to both lower stress and restore attention (e.g., Ratcliffe, Gatersleben, & Sowden, 2013). Thus, nature-related benefits to cognitive functioning are compatible with both ART and SRT, though under SRT one would expect cognitive benefits to be a consequence of affective changes.

The present experiment provides a more direct test of whether randomly assigning participants to hear nature versus urban soundscapes improves the functioning of directed attention. In line with previous work from the visual domain (e.g., Berman et al., 2008; Berto, 2005; Bourrier, Berman, & Enns, 2018), the primary hypothesis was that brief experiences with nature sounds, relative to urban sounds, will result in performance improvements on cognitive tasks requiring directed attention.

To address whether any nature-related cognitive improvements could be explained by affective changes, which would be predicted under SRT, participants provided aesthetic ratings of the sounds they heard as well as rated their positive and negative affect before and after the sound intervention. Aesthetic judgments have been interpreted as an affective response in the context of SRT (Ulrich, 1983), and previous investigations of nature-related cognitive benefits in vision have examined how aesthetic ratings of experienced nature relate to cognitive improvements (Berman et al., 2008).

Given that prior research has established that nature stimuli are aesthetically preferred to urban stimuli (e.g., Kaplan, Kaplan, & Wendt, 1972; Kardan et al., 2015) and that experiences with nature can improve positive affect and reduce negative affect (e.g., Benfield et al., 2014; Bratman, Daily, Levy, & Gross, 2015), we hypothesized that, relative to urban sounds, nature sounds will: (1) be aesthetically preferred, (2) increase positive affect, and (3) decrease negative affect. Importantly, however, under SRT these aesthetic and affective changes should significantly relate to any observed cognitive improvements. Thus, there are two overarching aims of this work. The first aim is to assess whether nature sounds can improve aspects of cognitive performance. The second aim is to ground any observed nature-related cognitive benefits in the context of either ART or SRT. 006ab0faaa
