    This is also the phenomenon behind a lot of the backmasking panic of the 90's. Parents didn't like rock or metal music and so were predisposed to hear all kinds of things when the music was played backwards. They would then write what they thought they heard, and put that text for people to read as it played backwards. and the text would prime people to hear what they were told to hear. I realized what was happening when a friend had 3 "messages" that he displayed while a song played backward and i heared them all when he played the same song backward. I then grew skeptical and always questioned what people told me i should hear.

    "Hello, thank you for calling." was first thing I heard.
    But there is also the FACT that the human brain CAN be Manipulated into thinking that it is hearing things it isn't. Or seeing, feeling and taste, even smell.
    It would have been interesting to hear that in the video. It's an all around cool subject, thank you!

    I heard "Wow, I think she was fine", then "Wow, Stacey was fine." I could see the horse in the image but not the girl. I like to think of the Adelson's Checkerboard illusion as the result of our brains having color-correction capabilities rather than a mistake. We can often see things in very unusually colored lighting as the proper colors and some people get better at it with training.

  • @AeroQC
    @AeroQC Před 2 lety +275

    What I thought I heard: "Hey, I speak through a sign!"
    Took me about five listenings to infer this specific phrase, but kept feeling that I had to say it in my head every time it came up again just to reconfirm what I was supposedly hearing.
    Originally, it was just a garbled mess of acute sounds, but asking me to think what I heard made my brain create something somewhat sensible, even though I actually believe there's no actual words being said (reminds me of Mark Rober's talking piano from a month, or so, ago).
    And lo and behold, I was half right and half wrong. I believed that there wasn't any meaning to the sounds at first, but after you egged me on to find meaning, my brain created a sentence. And would you have it "The man is painting a sign." is at least one word correct to my "Hey, I speak through a sign!".
    Had you not told me to find meaning, I would not have; but then again, I wasn't expecting to find meaning either.

    Just started the video: I'm having trouble hearing _anything_ decipherable from the sentence, and I bet this is intentional, but the closest thing I can piece together from listening to it a couple of times is "Oh no! Stupid phone!". I'll come back at the end of the video to see what it actually was.
    EDIT: Very interesting! I'm not typically one to get too frustrated with technology myself, but I currently live around people who absolutely do. So I can understand how I would have interpreted it like that! "Oh no, stupid phone" is a phrase I've probably heard many times. I won't say what the phrase really was to avoid spoiling people going through the comments.

    It took seeing the image side-by-side both ways before I could see the original shapes in the hard-to-see version, and it's still hard for me to see the ground truth in the test image. In my human-computer interface class back in the 90s we had a similar example of a cow that you can't unsee, and even 25 years later I can still see the cow when I see the test image.

    As an artist, I was taught in art school to “draw what you see, not what you THINK you see”. A guy I used to work with dropped out and said it was because that phrase was stupid, your brain is what you think you see. I had to explain to him this whole concept, you have a vision of what your brain think “a dog” looks like and it’s not nearly as accurate as looking straight at a dog, dropping preconceived ideas of what “a dog” is, because your brain is probably wrong.

    The sound is perceived as your mind predicts what it is or what you believe it is.
    For me it says "hey seems you're fine" but even from fully hearing the sound "The man's painting a sign" you can always go back think of what what heard and replay it again and it will play it from what you think it is based on sound and recognition.
    Might be just fully saying random stuff but that's what I believe it is.

    I’m gonna go in a mini rant:
    This is interesting to me because I have something called social pragmatic communication disorder (as well as the occasional hallucination caused by ptsd). I don’t inherently understand social cues, or misinterpret them. I’m often missing the context of situations, which makes sense as to why I struggle so hard in any kind of interaction(especially legal jargon, which is intentionally hard for regular people)
    I have difficulty making connections because to most people, all of these cues are often unspoken and coloured entirely by our experiences. So when I do or say something (that I think is a normal or correct response), it’s like that person predicting the coffee cup, but seeing a glass of water instead. It definitely throws people for a loop. Tho sometimes I do wonder how aware of it people are, because I also have a stutter and most people are shocked when I tell them, but can hear it afterward.
    So yeah, this video is very interesting to me. It does feel like I’m going about, experiencing life in that two tone or altered audio. I have a book of experience that tells me that’s a horse and a woman, even if I still can’t really see it. But I just keep on keeping on because it’s the only way I know.
    I’ll end with a quote from Komi Can’t Communicate “An important thing to remember is, just because a person has problems communicating, doesn’t mean that person doesn’t want to communicate with others.”
    Thanks for the insight

Either a cool outline of a person crouching down holding a light or something, or it is a horned person in what would be the "arm" of the second image with long hair, a doorway on the right, and light on the floor
    Edit: Hey, my first guess wasn't far off. The thing on the left I said looked like a face... that was the horse's face. Not too bad as a guess! Also, weirdly despite seeing the context of that image, I still can't see it when we move back to the original

    About the Spanish aspect of this video, two things.
    I can tell from experience that knowledge of a sentence clarifies immensely the understanding of what's heard. Many times I don't understand a thing of what a song in English says, then I find the lyrics, and magically I understand everything.
    The other thing, regarding you learning Spanish, first, congratulations. Second, watching TV or videos with subtitles in the same language helps a lot to get the meanings; I suppose it will be easier in Spanish, as the writing is phonetically close to the speaking.
    Third, in Spanish, Toronto is stressed in the second "o," not in the last. It doesn't mean something else as you said it, just sounds funny ha ha.
    Most important, and harder to explain, is that in Spanish we have two verbs that mean "to be," and they are "ser" and "estar." If you want to speak about permanent things, like being Canadian, you use "ser" (soy canadiense). If you mean something not permanent, like being tired, you use "estar" (estoy cansado).
    Of course, there are nuances and little details in this general rule, like, when you speak about something/someone being alive or dead, you use "estar," the non-permanent verb.
    Quite a philosophical statement in a grammatical characteristic.
    Good luck, y después seguimos conversando en español. 🖖😁

    "Oooh, what you see" is what I heard. Crazy and cool stuff! On a similar note about the colors, this is probably also why when you tint an image with any given color, your brain can still tell which parts are supposed to be red or blue or green, because they see them in relation to others, even when the _actual_ color is actually a grey without that color in it at all! It does the same thing as the image of shadowy tiles in the video.
    I think that one exists in particular because the sun tints the world around us in different tones depending on time of day and weather conditions. We still need to be able to identify colors in relation to each other and identify shapes and find faces.
    The black and white photo makes me think of those visual illusion drawings where you can see either a little girl or an old woman.

      What the brain is trying to do there is more like colour correction, it is trying to make the perceived colour consistent regardless of the lighting conditions. In effect the same thing that the auto white balance feature on a camera is trying to do but for the most part the brain is better at it. Although far from perfect and it can get tricked and mess up under the right conditions too thus how the checkerboard illusion works it tricks the brain into thinking there is a difference in the lighting conditions across the image that doesn't exist.

    Great subject! I thought the message said, "wow, thank your phone." I know that doesn't make sense, but it was so fast that was the best I could do. The picture I thought was a rapper/rocker singer with a microphone, leaning to the left, the round dot on the upper left the microphone, under it his hand in white, mid right his pants have a bandana hanging out. His head and face look a little funny and smashed.

    The best way to think about it is not as a prediction, but as prior knowledge. If you know what a coffee cup is, you identify it as such due to prior knowledge. With the cylinder at 3:00, you know what a shadow is, and you assume B is lighter it is a light square surrounded by dark squares.

    I heard "No, it's safe to sign." before and even after the context. Personally I think it reveals that I always have a worry something isn't safe which does make sense I'm the oldest of my siblings. I guess it can also allude to my trust issues, but that's just my guess.

    I constantly bump into things, especially door frames. I recently found out that I have a medical condition that affects my proprioception. It’s genetic, so it probably explains why my sister bumps into everything too.
    I thought the audio clip was saying something like “I feel fine,” then my brain started hearing something about “science.” In the picture, I saw what looked like a woman’s face, but didn’t make out the horse or her hat. Honestly, my brain was going for a 1980’s abstract rock poster-type image of Pat Benatar. lol
