I'm clearly hearing "Laurel" but if I go to that pitch-shift twitter post, I clearly hear "Yanny" on the down-shifted ones and still "Laurel" on the other ones. On the other hand that bass thing just gives me "Laurel" regardless.

How are people still fascinated by this sort of thing?

Fuckin nerds.

Yeah stop enjoying things guys.

Exactly what I suggested. Good job.

I just don't get why every time a new one appears Facebook goes into meltdown as though it's the first time anyone has encountered the idea that we perceive things differently.

It’s unbelievable how much you suck as a person

It's cute how keen you are for me to know what you think. You should save your energy though, you will never encounter another living thing less interested in your thoughts than I am.

Because they're moronic cunts.

Laurel first time I heard it this morning, Yanny this afternoon when I heard it again and now it’s back to Laurel.

Exactly the same for me.

It's an interesting effect. John does indeed 'suck as a person'.

Debatable.

I get Laurel.

On the pitch shift/whatever I get Yerry at 60%-90% and then it's all Laurel.

Aye, the pitch shift is Yanny. That's not an audio illusion, though. That's someone fucking with the audio to produce two different results rather than being exposed to the same.

All I hear is cunt

Depending on the pitch I either hear 'cunt' or 'John.'

Guys if you look at an Elephant and a Frog, what do you see?

I see an Elephant but that's just me.

I started off hearing Yanny, but not I can only hear Laurel.

Doesn't work for me. I can basically only hear Brainstorm. If I really focus on Green Needle I can kind of hear "Green Storm" but there's no needle sound whatsoever.

I played it to someone without telling them the options and they heard "one needle" but after seeing the options they too could only hear brainstorm.

-james-

I can hear Brainstorm, Green Needle, or indeed Green Storm, at will.

Mazuuurk
18-05-2018, 12:28 PM
Fucking weird. Expected that to work the same for everyone. I clearly hear what I'm thinking about.

SvN

That's insane. I can swap between the two depending which bit of text I'm looking at.

I can also get "Green Storm" and "Brain Needle" if I try.

Pepe
18-05-2018, 01:10 PM
I can also hear whatever I want to hear.

Ok I tried it again and now I can hear Green Needle. So annoying.

All I hear is ‘how are people still fascinated by this sort of thing?’

I still hear John's a cunt.

If we’re doing this, then John’s a yanny, surely?

Kikó

Laurel.

Pepe

Brain needle.

Sorry chaps, I found this interesting yesterday so I'm afraid I can't join in again today. Have a nice evening.
