Плерома,
О_Б,
Дорогие друзья! Если вы слышите звуки на этом видео-тесте, то это означает, на мой взгляд, что ваши органы чувств более чувствительны, чем у обычных людей, типа, вы очень творческие натуры.
Тем не менее, советую почитать самостоятельно текст и, может быть, если вас заинтересует, то почитать сугубо научно-медицинские тексты, на которые я дам ссылку. Если захотите, то поделитесь с кругом друзей, что вы поняли и обнаружили. Удачи!
Do you hear the dots moving when you watch the video? Then let us know in the comments below.
It sounds like a Zen conundrum: what is the sound of dots moving? Most of us can't answer that question, but for people with a newly identified form of synaesthesia, hearing such sights is the most natural thing in the world.
Melissa Saenz at Caltech in Pasadena was tipped off when a visitor looked at her screensaver, which made no noise, and said, "Does anyone else hear that?"
She quizzed him and found that his experience had the hallmarks of synaesthesia: a trigger through one sense was giving rise to a sensory experience in another. It was automatic and her visitor had experienced it as far back as he could remember.
To round up a few more test subjects, she passed around the noisy image via email. To her surprise, a few hundred viewers yielded three more of the new synaesthetes.
She showed them a variety of visual stimuli, from moving dots to flashes of light. Depending on the stimulus, people described simple abstract sounds such as tapping, thumping, whirring or whooshing.
