SinceThe70s Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 Very cool. I heard nothing but Yanny in the original. Check out this link where they play it at different pitches: https://www.cnn.com/videos/cnnmoney/2018/05/16/laurel-yanny-pitch-zw-orig.cnn My wife, son and I just listened to the different pitches. My son heard nothing but Yanny the whole time. My wife and I heard both depending on the pitch. But for the most part she heard Laurel when I heard Yanny.
ExiledInIllinois Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 I am really really close to middle. But lean Yanny ever so slightly. I slide bar a little to Laurel and I can hear Laurel.
PromoTheRobot Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 (edited) There is something seriously afoot here. Why are these a thing all of a sudden? Someone discovered and is learning to exploit perceptual differences between people. That's heavy stuff. The best way to divide people is to make them unable to agree on simple stuff.

YoloinOhio Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 Has trump weighed in yet? He seems like a Yanny. 1
/dev/null Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 (edited) The first time I played that clip I heard Yanny Then I started messing with the slider and started to move Laurel near the left of the slider. A few minutes later I went back and played the original clip again and hear Laurel. Moved the sliders around and hear Laurel in most positions. Freaky Edited May 17, 2018 by /dev/null 1

Stevie Ray Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 At high pitch I hear Rosen, and at low pitch I hear Allen. 1

US Egg Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 As far as I'm concerned, Yanni sucks and Laurel and Hardy are great.

Call me suspicious but if you recorded both words, filtering the lows out of one and the highs out of the other, that is what you would get. One heard at the highs and one heard at the lows, and somewhere in between, both.

BUT, it has always been more of a "YAM-ME" for me. Not sure where the they get the "n."

Wife hears Laurel. She though I was messing with her and got annoyed until I showed her the articles. We then proceeded to the blue/gold dress again and I see gold she see blue and black. Fun times, thanks internet for needlessly getting me in trouble with the missus. I don't need your help I do just fine on my own!!! 1
That's No Moon Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 It depends on what you are playing it back through also. On my phone it's laurel, when I heard it on TV later it was Yanny. On the NY Times thing it's Laurel and I need to click right twice to hear Yanny. Oh, and that dress is blue.
