On one hand you say, "sure they do" to my facetious comment that "certainly the laws of science must tell us how to design a great sounding hall. Then you say, "...but there's no scientific criteria for what a "Great sounding hall" is." Which is it?Then you say, "Figuring out what people like to hear is another matter entirely." I think you have conceded that the "laws" don't cover enough to design a hall that people want to listen in. I am not arguing that there are no scientific principles but that science does not cover all aspect of hall acoustics anymore than it can fully understand any other principle of electronics or acoustics.
On the Intelligent chip, some state baldly that it cannot work given the laws of physics and therefore is a scam. Here the "laws of physics" cannot fully explain hall acoustics, therefore those saying they can perpetrate a scam.
I do not believe that our understanding can fully account for anything. I do believe that peoples' ears are trustworthy and the best guide.
