NEWS HOUR SHARES - Perception, 'Yanny' vs "Laurel'

Our ears hear reality, our brains 'hear' an interpretation.

"Yanny vs. Laurel spotlights our brains’ desire to fill in the gaps" PBS NewsHour 5/16/2018

Excerpt

SUMMARY:  It's the auditory debate taking the internet by storm.  The PBS NewsHour's Nsikan Akpan and Julia Griffin explain how one sound can create two different experiences.



MY EXPERIENCE:

On my iPhone I hear "Yanny."  On my TV home entertainment system connected to a HI Def Surround Sound Amplifier, I hear "Laurel."  The device does make a difference.
