The New York Times has an interesting article, "Silent Discos Let You Dance to Your Own Beat," about outdoor concerts that are noiseless--because the music is delivered by headphones--and multi-threaded, in that people can choose to listen to different music streams delivered by different djs all playing simultaneously.
This is interesting on many levels. It's one way to provide outdoor music "festivals" in places that are adjacent to residential areas...

Back in 2002, I interned at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago and we had a "silent dance party" during our 24 hour solstice festival. Getting approval for outdoor night time events from the local community and their activist Alderman was very difficult, so that was a great way to get around his concerns. It's interesting now, 13 years later, that they are making an appearance in NYC. From what I remember, that the silent dance party was sort of an early 00s thing in Chicago. There was DJ and artist that sort of specialized in it. I guess sometimes things take a while to get to the coasts... ;-)
The discussion in the article doesn't acknowledge earlier events in places like Chicago.
It's sorta like how bike share wasn't on the radar until Paris launched it, even though large scale systems had already been in place in Lyon and other cities for some time beforehand.

You can test yourself by looking straight ahead and having your outstretched hands move internal from your sides. I additionally lost night vision which means presently makes seeing inside in night harder to explore rooms. Article beneath proposes these progressions may tire our cerebrums prompting intellectual misfortune.

My hearing misfortune began years back, was tried however don't recollect why there was no development or portable amplifier recommendations. The most noticeably awful part is being stayed away from in light of the fact that I ask, "what did you say?" and afterward being shouted at makes me quit reacting. Senses that being evaded.
