@dymaxion I have fond memories of the anechoic (and heavily sound isolated) chamber behind Bell Labs Murrary Hill. So weirdly quiet and dead it was uncanny and disorienting.

    @mattblazeI'd love to get to try one some day. The large wind tunnel at NASA Ames was semi-anechoic, so shockwaves didn't reflect and disrupt tests. Standing in the 110' test section was extra weird because of it — an impossible large empty indoor space with weirdly indirect lighting, and no cues as to how big it was. No echo, and someone speaking from ten feet away was weirdly quiet.
