Thanks to the slight delay in the arrival of the sound waves between the left ear and the right ear, your brain locates the origin of a sound.“Also, the brain knows if it should wake you up at night. Damien Mascaret illustrates:”On the first night in the countryside, for example, church bells are a potential hazard to your brain. He wakes you up. But from the second night he realized that it was safe and let you sleep.“

The “Palace of Memory”
