a: inner ear ~
b: instrument with thousands of tuned string

What:

"In effect, our inner ear is like an instrument with thousands of tuned strings, played upon by air vibrations in our environment. The range of possible interactions between those ''strings,'' all registering different segments and intensities within the sound spectrum, accounts for the enormous variety of tonal impressions we can experience."
