Ummmmmmmmm. We just got this sound masking equipment installed at our office and I'm not so sure about it. Basically its a series of speakers that pump out musak, yeah elevator musak, and white noise. So it sounds like static with some light music underneath it. I have to say, my first reaction is not very receptive. I'm sorry, i'm just not into the listening to static scene. I feel it in the center of my chest pulling apart my insides with a laser flashlight. I put my headphones on to listen to real music, which I can only do for so long, cause I like to hear what's going on elsewhere. The idea behind this stuff is to try to block noises from certain areas of the room from going into the others...so I can deal with it if it solves the situation, but right now I feel really side swiped by this overwhelming feeling of swimming in a static sea. But we were told to be open minded, so I'll give it a chance. I don't want to feel like a spoiled brat if I say anything about it. So if its read here, I don't care. This is my mind, I don't ever want to put a censor on this. I want this thing to flow out my thoughts into the open air, so they don't get stuck bouncing around in my head. Arggg! Static. I'm going to have to come in some night and put on some Dark Side of the Moon. There are speakers all over this office, it is literally an ideal office surround sound setup. Whatever. I'm out.  ¶ 4/03/2003 04:17:00 PM
