Can you hear the beep? 👂
An audiogram measures something extremely useful: the quietest pure tone we can detect at different frequencies.
But:
Detection ≠ Attention ≠ UnderstandingReal hearing means extracting a voice from noise, recognising incomplete information, localising sound, adapting to change — and doing all of that comfortably and without unreasonable cognitive effort.
My new HybridMind42 article asks a simple question:
Are we measuring hearing loss, or measuring enough of human hearing to understand what a person actually needs?The audiogram isn't the problem.
Don't break the tool. Define its proper boundaries.#HybridMind42 #Audiology #Hearing #HearingLoss #HearingAids #Tinnitus #Neuroscience #HumanPerception #ScienceCommunication

PSA:
I recently turned 50 and, to celebrate, my wife told me I wasn't heaing things normally anymore.
I went to the ear people who agreed with her.
I'm getting hearing aids before my mother and before my father in law, both of whom hear much worse than I do, because current science suggests that untreated hearing loss contributes to cognitive decline and dementia. No thank you!
I'll take the bionic parts.

Hi everyone - thought I would do a quick one of these #introduction things! I'm George, I work in the gaming space handling paid social and general digital marketing for Frontier (Planet Zoo, Jurassic World Evolution 2, F1 Manager 2022, and more!). I'm profoundly deaf with a cochlear implant which restores a considerable amount of but my directional hearing is wack as I haven't gone bilateral.
I'm here to meet new people and explore this exciting space, especially in the wake of recent Twitter events. I have three cats, an unhealthy paternal obsession with Grogu, and lucked out with both ADHD and autism ✌️
