Vibrations and perception
    #5810162 - 07/01/06 03:48 PM (17 years, 6 months ago)

I was just posting a reply to a thread about sound, and it got me thinking.  Basically, what we percieve as sound and light, is two manifestations of the same energy.  But when you look at the whole range of possible frequencies, we are only conscious of a very narrow band.  Visible light is around 4x10^14hz(post infra-red)-7.5x10^14hz(pre ultra-violet) and sound is approximately 20-20000 hz.  So if you look at that, you see that there is a LARGE amount that we are not consciously aware of. 

It is easy to imagine the evolutionary requirements to facilitate the development of these two primary senses.  Now I was wondering, what environmental stress can you imagine to bring these other wavelengths into the picture?  I am sure that a single celled organism picks up sounds much differently than we do, so how do you think a potential future species might utilize these extra wavelengths for purpose of survival or perpetuation of the species?  What environmental stress can you see as being required to bring these other wavelengths into the evolutionary picture?

i can see perhaps the "invisible" waves becoming a threat to our survival; therefore, we require a new sense organ to be aware of these energies.  Or maybe, there is some beneficial energy that feeds us directly if we know how to move into it (think of plants growing towards there light source). 

Any thoughts?
