how can shaping papers into funnel make some kind of sound when placed near the ears?

The funnel blocked unwanted sound wave around the subject you wishes to hear, so it only collects the sound wave given by the subject and make it travel in the way of your funnel is shaped. To get a clear sound, make your funnel long and narrow.

Well, some politicians have chosen to be fitted with a device long used by heavy metal singers, it's a form of air compressor resembling certain parts of the bagpipe.  I believe it's called 'the Jobblower' or somesuch.  It allows for continuous singing or oration but, unlike the bagpipe which also allows for long-term noise making, it has no drones.  It does seem to attract them though.  Glad to help!

The only thing I can think of offhand is a cellophane case, something where you can see through to the printer but where the sound is encapsulated.  You can try a big storage piece or large tupperware that you can dispose of, and cut holes for the power cord, printer cord, and paper feed.  I know how loud they can be.

umm pick the instruments you want outta "packs" drag them to menu right click then go to "piano roll" \nto shorten sounds left click them once and you'll see red lines in a box move them in to a rectangle for best results

None, sound is a wave not a particle. Sound is just a wave of vibrations travelling through atoms.

Adobe Audition has this capability. (It's the "Stretch" effect in the Time/Pitch category.)

make anything out of the following\nperiscope\nvolcano (Although I don't suggest this - it is a very old project and maybe many will turn up using this)\nA mini hovercraft or hot air baloon (info can be found on net)\nI don't know what it is called but if you know that thing in which we have to take a small hoop across a wire (which is not straight) without touching it. If touched, it will make a sound.\n\nIf none of this suits you, you might watch Backyard Science at National Geographic Channel

yes we did it in science class.  I forget how exactly but you fold the paper and then start cutting tiny rows but everyother row you change directions and then open it up when you are done and you get a loop of paper like a hoop and then you can step through it.  E-mail me for more details at fairy_dust_xo@yahoo.com  Hope this helps!

the tearing of the paper when dry allows you to hear (literally) the pulling apart of the molecules of the paper...after all, it is a solid, and you are disrupting its structure.  \n\nThis is also true when the paper is wet.  The difference is that the water "dampens" (no pun intended) the sound waves.  The moisture of the water also weakens the molecular bonds within the paper and allows a quieter seperation.

How to Make a Two-by-Four Xylophone \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n   \n\n\n \n The xylophone is a percussion instrument. If the bars are made of metal instead of wood, the instrument is called a metallophone. If they are made of rocks, you call it a lithophone. If they're made of bone, it's a bone-ophone. \n \n   \n  Steps:  \n1.   Choose a 7- to 8-foot-long two-by-four.  \n  \n2.   Cut off a 3-foot piece. This will be the low end of the xylophone.  \n  \n3.   Saw progressively shorter pieces at 2-inch intervals.  \n  \n4.   Sand the wood to prevent splinters.  \n  \n5.   Slide foam pipe insulation along the inside edges of a discarded drawer.  \n  \n6.   Lay the pieces of two-by-four across the drawer to form a sounding box.  \n  \n7.   Cut two 1/2-inch dowels to about 12 inches long.  \n  \n8.   Wrap the ends of the dowels with wide rubber bands to make soft mallets.  \n  \n9.   Use small ball-peen hammers for hard mallets.  \n  \n  \n  Tips:  \n Try different types of wood, which will produce different sounds.  \n  \n Driftwood makes for a great-looking instrument.

sounds like the mezzotint

it could be paranoia. I tear mine becuase i read somewhere that the ripping of paper is calming. And if you focus on the sound, it truly is.

to be more specific a foley person finds alternative ways to replicate different sounds. ie snapping celery to make it sound like a bone is being broken, hitting a bag full of sand to make it sound like a thud or walking on cereal in a box to make it sound like your walking on gravel or in dry brush. It's actually pretty cool and takes a lot of imagination
