The Random Feburary Tracklist

I had a winter tracklist back in the day, so it seemed about time to put a new one together. There are a couple of older choices in here but most of this stuff is newish and at least worth a listen once or twice.

Janes Addiction - Superhero
Just Jack - Starz In Their Eyes

The Beer Goggle Effect - The Engineering Way

In a recent study conducted by researchers at England's Manchester University in 2005, scientists actually came up with a mathematical formula to calculate the extent of the "beer goggle" effect on a given individual in a given situation. Their reasoning for creating this formula is that alcohol is not really the only factor affecting the drunken perception of beauty. Other factors, according to their research, include:

* How brightly lit the area is
* The observer's eye-sight quality
* The amount of smoke in the air
* The distance of the observer from the observed

The formula goes like this:







where:
o An is the number of servings of alcohol
o S is the smokiness of the area on a scale of 0 - 10
o L is the lighting level of the area, measured in candelas per square meter, in which 150 is normal room lightning
o Vo is Snellen visual acuity, in which 6/6 is normal and 6/12 is the lower limit at which someone is able to drive
o d is the distance between the observer and the observed, measured in meters

The formula works out a "beer goggle" score ranging from 1 to 100+. When β = 1, the observer is perceiving the same degree of beauty he or she would perceive in a sober state. At 100+, everybody in the room is a perfect 10.
