Kevin Kelly posted “The Scifi Sound Effects That Take Over Your Brain” and brought back a lot of happy (and scary) childhood memories. Sounds, like flavors, can trigger a memory and/or an emotional state much more than a picture. Listen to all of them but the Alien Heat Ray and the Alien Probe from the 1953 version of War of the Worlds.brought back some scary memories. The original Star Trek transporter sounds like wonder and awe to me. It was a very cool visual effect as well.
