Localization function
Suppose you get a new ear piercing that dramatically changes the shape of your pinna and causes you to have trouble localizing sounds. From which direction will you have the hardest time localizing sounds, and why?
Sounds from above, due to changes in interaural time differences
Sounds from the side, due to changes in interaural time differences
Sounds from above, due to changes in the direction transfer function
Sounds from above, due to changes in interaural level differences
