I heard the opening line from Arctic Monkeys' I Bet You Look Good on the Dance Floor...but then I hear Laurel. lain:
I'm also wondering if Southerners might not have an advantage in hearing the original information package and not being misled by higher frequencies given that unlike our cousins to the north we have to regularly unpack fairly muddy speech patterns and accents.
And when it comes to the sugar vs salt on them debate, that can get literal.Yes, but at least your grits are to die for.lain:
I first heard Yanny...now I hear Laurel.
Weird, give it a listen.
Same here.
A couple days ago it was clearly Yanny, and then I listened again just now expecting to hear Yanny again but it was definitely Laurel. :chuckle:
Okay, I've just tried this again, on loop, rewinding randomly and it still so blatantly starts and begins with an 'l' to me each time. I don't get how "Yanny" can even be heard on this. "Yanny" would effectively end with an "E" sound.
Bemusing stuff.
I realized the first time I'd listened on my phone so I went back to the phone and it was Yanny. On the laptop, it's Laurel. :liberals:
Must have something to do with frequencies, device speakers, and our auditory system? All those are outside my knowledge base.
Yes, it's entirely to do with all of those and what a load of blackberries...or should I say, souffle? They sound one and the same when put in a mixer...
:liberals:
Except... I heard something on your sound clip that wasn't Yanny or Laurel.
It's Laurel until the -33% at which point it sounds like Yaley to me and continues at every slower speed. Once we're back to normal and at every faster speed Laurel returns.
