Blood rushing through veins is audible as the Rauschen heard in the doctor’s stethoscope. Music and parties rauschen. Internal passions are reflected in audible externalized motions, and even generate them. More narrowly summarized, and more scientifically precise is the definition that Jacob und Wilhelm Grimm discovered in the writings of Johann Gottfried Herder: ... As opposed to the klang (sound), the musical note, the geräusch (noise): It is obvious that all the external grooves of the ear and even the tympanum cannot properly be the instrument of sensation.
