“More often than not, urban living causes narrow focus and disconnection. Too much information is coming into the auditory cortex, or habit has caused narrowed listening to only what seems of value and concern to the listener. All else if tuned out or discarded as garbage.” ~Deep Listening – Pauline Oliveros
