The "head shadow" effect refers to the way sound waves are affected by the shape and position of a person's head, creating a phenomenon that influences how we perceive the direction of sounds. When sound waves travel toward a listener, the head can block certain frequencies or reduce the intensity of sound coming from one side compared to the other. This results in a difference in sound intensity and timing between the ears, which the brain interprets to locate the sound source.
