Do you hear with your ears or eyes?

Because the audio is garbled enough to be barely at the threshold of comprehension, the text provides cues that influence your perception. It's like watching TV with closed captioning on.
 
I only hear get away no matter what I look at?, is this like those magic eye pictures?….couldn’t get them either :confused:
 
It's always "get away". I went from line to line and only the 4th line was in sync with what I heard. Maybe because I'm not a native speaker.
 
Get awake only.

Has anyone analysed the sound to see if it's the same each time, not convinced it's not subtly changing.

1st try: Ped-a-way and possibly cut(d)-a-way

2nd try: Get-a-way after repeated listening 5 minutes later. It is definitely get-a-way beginning to end.

3rd try: Get-a-way, beginning to end, 5 minutes after the second try.

4th try: Get-a-way beginning to end, 5 minutes after the third try.

Total test time 15 minutes and 5 minutes between tokes! I mean test. :-)

I see no reason for such an exercise. What is the purpose, other than me taking 2 extra hits on a cone, that I double filtered, and neatly packed with Blue Punch?

Usually there is a one-toke limit through the day from noon until sleepy time at 11-12:00. Then I might take two or three, but seldom more than 3 hits per day, total.

Actually, it was an irritating test. It reminds me of the last guy I worked with for 13 years, who was the owner. He was worthless, and you couldn't GET-AWAY from his useless prattle.

The mid-brain superior colliculus is integral to rapid eye shifting and includes auditory neurons with high frequency response to the time difference of sound arrival to our 2 ears which is processed in the lateral superior olive nuclei of the auditory brainstem. Changing the frontal eye field attention initiates cortical brain connections to the superior colliculus (as well as the auditory cortex).

The superior colliculus exhibits a non-linear dynamic with respect to reception from the spatial field in it's link to the auditory brainstem. Which plays out there as neural firing rates being greatest with fast gazing patterns. Thus short term rapid eye shifting and long term gazing have different influence on what is being picked up.

In effect rapid eye shifting accentuates neural attention to a segment in time of the ongoing audio flow. The faster the change in attention the more clearly the brain neurologically interacts with a segment of the audio. And thus, the less the brain registers the time difference between sounds' arrival to each ear of that audio segment. There is a term when this occurs called "spatial release" and when that happens what we popularly refer to as frequency "masking" abates and in effect that sound is perceived clearer.
 
While I do hear with my ears, the looks of a speaker definitely influence my thoughts. I'm not going to trust my ears if I think an affordable 2 way sounds better than a 3 way from the same line.

I also find more often than not my ears prefer speakers with lumpy measurements...like the exaggerated fq's are offering better resolution when certain notes pop out. I know, i know

What's that saying? Ignorance is bliss, especially if you can afford it.

Easy for you to say.
 
As a 'model' failure, I cannot even stop taking such tests; knowing full-well I am going to fail again.

Stereograms? Anyone?

Funny thing is if you have a strabismus eye condition like I do, you will never see these hidden pictures because of the condition. I wondered why my whole life I could not see anything. Strabismus prevents you from seeing any of those hidden pics.

Once I was watching an Anime series, and the first seasons were Japanese with subtitles, and then suddenly they switched to dubbed audio, but subtitles were still on. I was probably half way through the episode before I realized that they were speaking english!

There's something odd about translated subtitles. They make sense when reading them, but it feels very strange when it is dubbed and people are say speaking the translated version. I'd actually prefer subtitles with the native language than an over dub in English.
