Are we actually inherently drawn to analog artifacts including things like film grain? Or are we accustomed to seeing/hearing it? If you plucked a member of an un-contacted tribe out of the Amazon, would they prefer film grain and vinyl? I'm not sure, but I'm willing to hear the evidence presented.

I remember the first time I saw 60hz video on a flat screen TV. I thought the motion looked so incredibly unnatural it was almost unwatchable. Now, it just seems normal. It had nothing to do with 60hz video itself - it had to do with the expectations built up by years of watching 29.97hz interlaced NTSC video...
