Language of Mind Aug 16, 2022 Spoken language is all about sound, right? Maybe not! Our brains make use of every bit of information available to figure out what we’re experiencing, but this process can cause us to experience some trippy illusions. Let’s explore the McGurk effect – the visual/auditory illusion where what you see rewrites what you hear! If you’re interested in perception, check out the Perception Census project! You can contribute to the largest study on perceptual diversity in the world! https://perceptioncensus.dreamachine…. 0:00 – Intro 1:10 – The McGurk effect 2:06 – Timing 3:19 – McGurk on the brain 5:53 – Can you McGurk a baby? 7:48 – Tactile McGurk 9:19 – Why do we get McGurked? 10:11 – Outro Sources: McGurk, H., & MacDonald, J.
