Based on the psychological effect known as "priming" you
hear
a distorted unclear word and depending on what you're
reading, your perception of that word changes, Laurel /
Yanny
style. If you're not familiar with this click on the first link
before reading further.
The idea is to come
up with enough of these words to
put
together a short story or description of a scene either by
hand
or with a computer program. Then to read various
interpretations of it and hear multiple short stories from
one
repeating sentence, paragraph, page or book.
I'll do as short sentence using some famous ones:
"Laurel brainstorm was a green needle."
"Yanny Greenneedle was a brainstorm."
So the audio you're reading the two different transcripts
of is the same, repeating over and
over, but you can change the actual story, (not just the
words)
depending on what you're
reading due to your brain being "primed" by the
particular
visual
sentence.
Words that made more sense would have to be lined up,
but
the above clumsy attempt basically says:
"Laurel had a brainstorm, he invented the green needle."
"Yanni Greenneedle (His last name) was just generally
incredibly
smart."
So yea, those are clunky as hell but that's the idea. A
series of
these words created and strung together such that they
create actual sentences, not just words, that change as
you
read differently worded transcripts.
To take it a step further, it could be an actual short story
with
4 or 5 scripts you could meander back and forth through.
The basic idea.

Nine possible interpretations for this one.

There's enough of these to put together a story.

I'm sure some of the things these dogs "say" could be used.

Ooh this is an interesting one. |
|
|
These are pretty populer on Youtube and TicToc. I don't have
time to do it but somebody should. They might
get a few million hits, make twenty bucks or so. I'd play it. |
|
|
Hey, Sarge, that gives me an idea. It could be animated as
well, just have the lips moving as vaguely as the words. Have
a split screen with two different things going on. Top screen
matches the top screen subtitles, bottom screen bottom
subtitles. |
|
|
No wait, the two screens would clearly mouth the words for
that panel to
add to the priming deal. It would actually enhance the effect. |
|
|
Hey, channeling 8th! Well done sir. |
|
|
Although he would have said We will allow this. |
|
|
Naw. I only do that shit once... and then I let them go. I channelled them once for your aerated litter box idea... and I just, I won't do two shows a night, I just won't do it... |
|
|
I mean really. Would you want to be kept hanging around for any old time I felt like trying you on like a suit? |
|
|
The thing is I think it only works if you are already thinking of the target word. I don't know if these noises can be parsed by the brain in real time to make it generate coherent sentences. I think it would be more like listening to speech in a language you are vaguely familiar with - if you have a script you can follow the words but without the script it just turns into meaningless noises. |
|
|
Maybe it could be a mystery where a key piece of
evidence is a picture of a dress that is of uncertain
color... |
|
|
I think that's a great idea. Take this phenomena and
make some kind of mystery, game or puzzle out of it. |
|
|
//I mean really. Would you want to be kept
hanging around for any old time I felt like trying
you on like a suit?// |
|
|
I hear you. (majestic music starts) So I will bear
that mantle. I vow to do
my best to summon 8th. Wherever there is
sentiment, political correctness or love of cats, I
doctorremulac3 will let 8th be my guide, to scorn
and mock silliness, sentimentality or over reliance
on cats for social interaction.. (music stops) |
|
|
wait, I like cats. Hmm. Let me think about this. |
|
|
// if you have a script you can follow the words but without
the script it just turns into meaningless noises// |
|
|
That's the point, it is just meaningless sounds without the
various transcripts, but you can have one string of
meaningless sounds that your brain translates into various
words by the various written transcripts or subtitles if you've
got an animation of different scenes which could be kind of
cool. |
|
|
One wonders if you could overlay "blue" and "gold"
verbally, and then have the identity of the suspect
hinge on their color of dress. |
|
|
Maybe overlay gold in a high frequency on top of
blue in a lower frequency and you could have a story
that changes depending on how old you are when
you read it. |
|
|
I wonder if you could use a "primer" (short film or story or
something, done "straight") to put the viewer in a particular
frame of mind, so they subconsciously follow a particular
path. Viewing with a (very) different "primer" completely
changes the main story, without it actually changing. |

Could probably do something with the "talking" dogs in the
video. (link) |
