What's this?

Feels different to me...

with the dress thing, it never seemed clear to me. Like I could get how the blue dress folks saw blue and the white dress folks saw white. With this one, my speakers are blaring out laurel plain as day...it blows my mind that it sounds SOOOOO different to someone else. And yes, I went to the link that explains it and demonstrates it.

Laurel or Yanni? -- HokieDevil 05/16/2018 12:24PM

On "The Five" it was "Laurel". Later on another program it was "Yanwe". -- MikeVT85 05/16/2018 9:28PM

I hear Yammi. Someone must be playing a joke. There’s no way it’s Laurel. ** -- Hoakie82 05/16/2018 4:47PM

It's laurel. ** -- Hokie5150 05/16/2018 5:24PM

Laurel (pic) -- Hokie5150 05/16/2018 2:40PM

Laurel. Get that other trash out of here. ** -- ElbertoHokie 05/16/2018 2:10PM

It's the oddest thing, I heard Yanni two times, then read "Laurel" -- jmanatVT 05/16/2018 1:45PM

Is it frequency based? -- Hokie360 05/16/2018 2:47PM

...what’s the frequency Kenneth ? ** -- chumley 05/16/2018 5:51PM

After repeated listening, I heard: Dave's not here ** -- VaTechie 05/16/2018 2:28PM

Basically same for me. I heard sort of high-pitched Yanny, but then... -- Gobbler-100 05/16/2018 1:53PM

I hear "Yanny" but also hear "aurel" at the same time... -- MP4VT2004 05/16/2018 5:04PM

You heard both too? Ladies and Gents, I've found my vice-emperor for life. ** -- Late 80s Hokie 05/17/2018 08:28AM

Something else I've watched suggests it's the speed at which it's played -- jmanatVT 05/16/2018 1:48PM

How does that affect two people hearing it at same time? ** -- CPRVHokie 05/16/2018 1:54PM

Not sure, different path might cause different frequencies to be attenuated -- jmanatVT 05/16/2018 3:12PM

Saw this on the news this morning, and heard Laurel -- Late 80s Hokie 05/16/2018 1:29PM

My new theory. Right wingers hear Laurel, Lefties hear Yanni. Those of us -- Late 80s Hokie 05/16/2018 1:49PM

You have my vote ** -- CPRVHokie 05/16/2018 1:55PM

Laurel. Never liked that Greek dude anyway. ** -- vt90 05/16/2018 1:24PM

Listened to this on a continuous loop for a minute -- Newt 05/16/2018 1:23PM

So weird -- VT Pops 05/16/2018 1:21PM

Yanny ** -- Pylons 05/16/2018 1:20PM

100% Laurel ** -- OXVT 05/16/2018 12:58PM

Ugh. We’re on the same team here. ** -- CPRVHokie 05/16/2018 1:18PM

I hear Yanni and have no idea how anyone can hear Laurel. And I am now more -- Coach McGuirk 05/16/2018 12:54PM

Agree 100% yanny ** -- HokieForever 05/16/2018 1:01PM

I hear "Yami" ** -- WestyHokie 05/16/2018 12:47PM

That’s what I hear, too. ** -- Hoakie82 05/16/2018 4:50PM

I don't know who either is ** -- OXVT 05/16/2018 12:43PM

Laurel -- HokieDevil 05/16/2018 12:52PM

Yanni -- HokieDevil 05/16/2018 12:53PM

Laurel. ** -- Femoyer Hokie 05/16/2018 12:36PM

That is freakin crazy... -- JoesterVT 05/16/2018 12:28PM

The different pitch links further down the page -- Pylons 05/16/2018 1:23PM

Blue or gold dress redux ** -- CPRVHokie 05/16/2018 12:31PM

Feels different to me... -- JoesterVT 05/16/2018 12:36PM

Same concept. I looked at the picture of th dress at the same time as my -- CPRVHokie 05/16/2018 1:02PM

I’d be curious if anyone listened together & one heard yanny & other laurel ** -- Hoakie82 05/16/2018 5:04PM

Yes. 4 of us listened at once. 2 and 2. ** -- CPRVHokie 05/16/2018 5:53PM

Just shared it with a coworker (who is younger). We heard different things -- Tafkam Hokie 05/16/2018 6:16PM

Shun ** -- CPRVHokie 05/16/2018 7:57PM

I get it... -- JoesterVT 05/16/2018 1:04PM

So, I played this earlier this morning and it was yanny, yammi and muffled. -- Gobble Gobble 05/16/2018 12:47PM
