History of Western Civilization Told Through the Acoustics of its Worship Spaces

Abstract.  Insights into the history and future of western civilization are found by applying information theory to the acoustical communication channel (ACC) of its worship spaces. Properties of the ACC have both influenced and reflected the choice of message coding (e.g., speech or music) at various times. Speech coding is efficient for acoustically dry ACCs, but hopeless for highly time-dispersive ACCs. Music coding is appropriate for time dispersive (reverberant) ACCs. The ACCs of synagogues, early Christian house churches, and many Protestant churches are relatively acoustically “dry” and thus well suited to spoken liturgies.

The spoken liturgy, dominant in synagogues, was carried over to early Christian churches, but became unworkable in Constantinian cathedrals and was largely replaced with a musical liturgy. After a millennium, the cathedral acoustic was altered to suit the doctrinal needs of reformation churches with its renewed emphasis on the spoken word. Worship forms continue to change, and the changes are reflected in the properties of the ACC. The pulpits of electronic churches may be evolving into radio and television performance spaces and naves into worshipers’ living rooms.

There are a few campuses in the USA and UK where chickens are allowed to roam freely, often as part of educational programs or sustainability initiatives.

In the USA, some examples include:

University of California, Davis: The campus has a farm that includes free-range chickens as part of its agricultural programs.
Bard College: They have a farm that features free-range chickens, contributing to their sustainable agriculture practices.

In the UK, examples include:

University of Edinburgh: They have had initiatives where chickens roam freely as part of urban farming projects.
Kingston University: Their campus has included chickens in community gardening efforts.
These programs often emphasize sustainability, education, and the benefits of local food production.

Small scale chicken farming, as in residential and even in educational settlements, are regulated at the local level by municipalities, cities, or counties. Local ordinances vary widely with some common elements including:

  1. Zoning Laws: These laws determine whether residential areas can keep chickens and in what capacity. Some areas may prohibit chickens entirely, while others may allow a limited number.
  2. Permit Requirements: Some localities require residents to obtain a permit to keep chickens.
  3. Coop Specifications: Regulations may include specific requirements for chicken coops, such as size, location, and sanitation standards.
  4. Noise and Nuisance Laws: Rules may be in place to manage noise and odors, ensuring that chickens do not become a nuisance to neighbors.
  5. Health and Safety Codes: These codes can cover the cleanliness of the area where chickens are kept, as well as guidelines for feeding and waste disposal to prevent attracting pests or creating health hazards.
