I just had an epiphany that what ASA is talking about has alot to do with classical conditioning.
It's quite abstract.
Anyways, I think he was talkin about the evolution of terminology being used in audio--how visual words such as resolution, bright, dark, openness, etc became daily jargon in terms of describing audio.
Classical conditioning is when a subject is sharing one stimulus response to various stimuluses. Consequently, when we see sudden flash of bright light, we evade our eyes from the source. This is tantamount to our ears wanting to evade a sound that is piercing our ears, because it is too bright.
So, we have two different types of stimulus, but only one word to describe the two differenyt stimulus, because there is only one stimulus response.
So, we describe, or give adjective, to stimulus, not based on the stimulus, but rather, based on our stimulus response to the stimulus.
