4 Weird Audio Illusions! youtu.be/kbzL9PxtFf0
Do You Trust Your Senses? youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQwg0PxpUPlrCbBDdUdLcYga4AANBUWkI
The Cocktail Party Effect is an auditory phenomena that, really, humans shouldn't have to solve – normally we can automatically separate different sounds and voices through our selective attention.
