  1. #21
    It's actually a voice clip of someone saying "Laurel" idk how you deaf as niggas hear "Lanny".

    Your ears must all be fucked I can hear it just fine.

    If you think it's Lanny you are broken.

    I only hear laurel.

    The explanation I heard on NPR yesterday was younger people are more likely to hear Yanny as they can hear higher frequencies and although they are not sure why, they suspect that's what is responsible for the differences...I don't buy it myself and it's funny those saying the primary is yanni, I don't hear yanni at all, I hear laural very clearly and that's it.

    The fist time I heard it I heard Yanny. I thought how could people hear anything else? Then I heard it the next day and I heard Laurel. It’s not like those 2 words are remotely similar.

    As far as the “blue/gold” dress goes, I’ve never seen anything but gold.

    If you hit the last bar (the max) you'll hear Yanny. Distorted but closer to Yanny than Laurel nonetheless.
    I still don't understand the point of all this though. Boh...

    I think it's to demonstrate/suggest that reality isn't real and is simply down to the perception of the observer.

    Ok, but you could say that about a lot of things really. Colours, people, situation etc.etc.
    Still, this is so minor that I just don't understand the obsession. Sounds more like kids playing to me.

    yes. (re: colors situations etc)

    I think the fact it is a good example of difference where there are no blurred lines. I most definitely only hear laurel and nothing else, it's ridiculous to me that anyone hears anything else, equally there are ones that only hear Yanni and think the same.

    Color blindness and situations (which ultimately rely on memory which we know is flawed) is more easily explained away I think than hearing completely different words from the same recording.

    It's a good demonstration I think of how even when you are convinced you know the truth about something or witnessed something...you might be completely wrong about it...which opens up a can of worms about many things, such things as witness testimony and again reality.

    If 999 people say the sky is blue and one says it's green, then the sky would most likely be officially noted as blue...even thought it was actually green. The 999 call the 1 colorblind when it's actually the 999 that are colorblind. etc.
