Where was that video/trick...

Post by **sliver** » Sun Jan 22, 2006 6:05 am

A while ago someone posted a video of a person's lips pronouncing a syllable with mis-matching audio. If you listened to the sound while watching, it made one sound, but if you closed your eyes you heard something different.

It was an example of how auditory function is affected by visual input.

Anyone know what I'm talking about, or better yet what page it came from? tia

Do a search for "sense test". I think that's what the thread was called.

do a search for the McGurk effect. Basically shows how visual information can affect auditory perception (sort of like a form of top-down processing)

All the vids google is giving me are of consonant changes ("bah" is heard as "dah" etc), but the one I remember was vowels. I think it was a woman, too, saying "oh" but it was heard as "oooh" (ü) when you looked at it.

Thanks though, at least I know what i'm looking for.

i like that one of the hobbit where he says "PO TAT TOES" and it looks as if he's saying MO TASTY HOES
