Are the five senses really all that we use to take in the world around us, or is it a little more complex than that, with psychology playing a more prominent role than you might have thought?

I don’t see the gif in the description :( I googled it but ya
I actually experience 'vear' but I had no idea that it had a name until now. I also get synesthesia where some words smell like melting wax so maybe there is a connection. I wonder if there is a connection with autism, those of us on the spectrum tend to process senses differently (hence noise sensitivity for example) It'd be interesting to study. 😁
Indeed there is! Atypical neuronal structures in the brains of people diagnosed "autistic" often include "incorrect" sensorial perception (both cross-wiring of them, as well as a lack of depth of perception in cases such as temperature). The argument I make is "if you've ever tasted green and yellow when you heard a weed whacker kicking up, you're either on acid or a synesthete."
I wonder if it's related to "musical tinnitus" where you hear sounds (mostly music) in white noise (like fans blowing).
Indeed.
I’m autistic and experience vEar, synthesasia, and asmr, misophonia!
I’m autistic and I experience none of those things.
12:35 -- I literally had to request a different office because me and a married coworker loved each other's smell so much it was getting uncomfortable. He is literally the only person in the world that ever did that to me. It's been 12 years and I can still remember his smell. It wasn't just one way. He loved my natural smell. We were never intimate, I was not on birth control, and we were in an outdoor work environment most of the time, so neither of us wore too much unnatural chemicals. It was insane how much our natural smells made us crazy.
Same with my partner - we both find deodorant on the other repulsive, it's just weirdly uncomfortable to even hug his when he smells like artificial scents. I've always thought I had a sleep smell, when I entered my bedroom I would feel super relaxed because I could "smell sleep" but no-one ever said they could smell it - then one day he just said "I love how you smell when you sleep, it's so relaxing" and my theory was proven! After something stressful happens or I've been afraid (yelled at, busy day at work, panic attack), he can apparently smell the difference too, vice versa Right from the beginning too, though it did intensify with time. We're both just really sensitive to smells in general.
It's kinda weird tbh, but we enjoy it...
u live in the omegaverse or sum? 🤣
For the visual morse, what I heard was it ticking like a light switch as it went on an off, not a sustained noise while it was lit.
Oh my god!!! Dude!!! I say ALL THE TIME when my sense of vision is overwhelmed by something too bright that it's "too loud" and like sure I'm being a lil funny but I'm also pretty serious... it's so overwhelming and it causes physical pain. I literally need sunglasses to be out on bright days.
But wow this is really cool!! I miss this channel and I'm glad that there's some left I haven't seen yet. This stuff is absolutely fascinating ❤❤❤❤
Where's the link to the gif you promised
What a horrific experiment to perform on Helen with zero acknowledgement of that :(
Dr. V. S. Ramachandran created the mirrors box therapy, he's is an AMAZING neuroscience educator
I don't quite hear the gif (it not jif, look at what the 'g' stands for), but I "feel" the "bass" rumble as the screen shakes. That kinda clued me in to the idea of it being a visual cue. I can almost feel the fake hand in the video too. Mine were out of sight but still, we definitely prioritize visual information over other sensory input.
I couldn't hear any sounds, but I imagined a sound with the light to help count the Morse code. I knew it was my imagination though... until I thought they added sound to the boxing one, then realised that's the sensation they are talking about. I guess we just imagine the doof doof doof as the ball is being hit because we know the sound so well.
The literal inventor of the gif says it's pronounced 'jif', so it is. No need to 'decide'.
@@speters17 well even the greats are wrong on occasion
Don't worry, you'll get it right from now on ;)
One of my favorite SciShow facts was the one about people having neurons dedicated to detecting in milliseconds that someone is looking at you. Is that a separate sense?
Wow, great segment on the vEAR thing. Great stuff!
I think it's a different type of hallucinations, like vision is to visuals, hearing is to sonorals
Specially bc they mix a lot with each other and every other abstract dimensions including space and time, and boy is the inner universe of a human's brain complex, so much more than we currently think.
Like, layers and layers of complexity above
I really gotta start trying to draw/animate what I think and feel like, words aren't a good dimension to inscribe this type of information.
But, it's like hearing a mind voice when you're reading, simply a sound that correlates to that visual input.
The more abstract, the better
Letters convey sound perfectly trivially in words.
Things too complex to even cohere into a simple well defined concept won't be as easily linked to an specific sound, but if you put noise, then asked to see if Bouba is lower pitched than Kiki, I'm sure Kiki would be the high pitched one;
The noise could be a energy/"information" source for pre activating sound circuits, then their images would be shown alternatively with the tones in a random order, or just the tones/bells, then just images and they self report which "sounds" higher pitched.
The human mindscape of abstract space made up of concepts and pure information that's subjectively constructed using what's ultimately real physical information(braiding of different quantum entanglement states in all of the ways it can happen and their emergent features in upper layers of abstraction, as I think about it); is wonderfully complex.
It's the Cosmos's finger that creates the magic of an entire, conscious, perceptual universe of subjectivity and separatedness from the absolutedness of itself
Nice Information
It's very faint, like the ghost of a sound or like hearing my heartbeat under certain conditions. In fact, it's so faint it's hard to tell if it's something I'm hearing because something is actually making a sound somehow or something I'm hearing just because I expect to hear it. Maybe that's it- maybe the shaking makes our blood pressure spike and we can hear that. Oh, I didn't know about the other thing, that's cool.
I have a weird crossover between sound and pain. Sound goes in one ear and straight to the ardrenal gland (joke). I want to fight the morse code tone to the death. (this is called misophonia, which translates loosely to sound anger). As for noisy GIFs, I think we hear the sound because we expect the sound and probably fabricate it by bracing for it.
13:20 ish. I used to have a very long commute on the bus. Some of the folks on the bus smelled so bad that I had to move or sometimes even get off. I was stunned that I would react that much.
I think we usually walk around not noticing how we smell because humans use sight much more than smell to identify people. But if people are out in public and their smell breaches a certain threshold it becomes obvious and impossible to ignore.
Hey there, really enjoyed the video! would love to get these as audio only, are you on audea?
This will be a good one
If a guy naturally produces a smell that makes women and Girls lose cognitive ability and self control and thought. Should the man cover his smell and women do things with him again their normal principals who's to blame
~8 min On guessing. Used to be interVIEWer for marketing research company. My boss told me guesses are pretty accurate. This makes me think about intuition.
I was just talking about senses today and I wonder if our being able to yell distance was a sense and if we understand the mechanism of things being farther away appearing smaller and why we can trick our brains using this perception.
Crowd crush and crowd collapse are stressful enough to think about anyway, but the fact that it’s so hot and sweaty in there and you’d be smelling all the stress and fear of everyone around you while being unable to stop, yikes. Nightmare time
Let's hear it for Past Hank dutifully having repeated the word "synesthesia" so many times while CLEARLY being chronically unable to produce that string of sounds reliably with his mouth.
Was there ever an outtakes reel for that episode? Or did someone decide that Hank accidentally spitting for five minutes was not high-quality entertainment
I have audio->visual synesthesia and I actually see the motion and colors (projector, I think it's called?) But with sound less gifs I hear the noise I expect them to make but only in my head. Does that make sense? Like the way you "play" a song fully in your head and it's almost exactly like listening to it?
2:45 i visualized the sound while looking at it blink while listening to him, i hate and enjoy my complex ptsd, im all aware and its hard to control thoughts and i sometimes lose my feelings completely and i dont know what i feel cause my thoughts from past trauma keeps changing and it can make me forget what i was trying to learn at the moment so trying to learn while i can at the moment and do remember sometimes but hey, im doing ok i think,, ill keep learning,
I have lattice degeneration and eustachian tube dysfunction so my hearing and sight are diminished. I'm severely triggered by bright lights (e.g. LED car lights should be banned) and people chewing (I hear myself chewing so much because of my eustachian tubes I cringe/shiver when I hear others). When I listen to music I see sheet music of the notes and each note is a different color corresponding with the notes (generally G's are green, F/F#'s are orange, B/Bb's are cyan, and E/Eb's are yellow)
I am super curious to know what kinds of reactions autistic individuals have to chemosignals.
Where’s the link to the gif?
The Twitter link under original episode
Did they put the link for the sound hallucination
It's funny. I remember the jumping towers gif and never really heard a thing. I did however, get the sense that my poor little brain was expecting to hear something. There's a sensation, maybe in the ears, when I hear loud but low sounds off in the distance and tan echo of hat sensation is present when viewing the gif. It's almost like replaying a song in your head. There's a bit of recall of what the sound should be, but it's extremely faint and flat.
Around 27:40;
OR....
OR, maybe, the participants chose the delayed gratification response BECAUSE IT WAS MORE MONEY...
Derrr...
is sci show psych back now?
6:05 I couldn't care less about any debate over how to pronounce "GIF".
But I'll add that the first initial, G, stands for "graphic", so it would make sense for the sound to be a hard "G".
Maybe if the "G" stood for "Giraffe", then it should be said as a soft "G" (which sounds like a "J" sound).
What do you call it when a noise is so loud you can't see? This is something I've been wondering for a while.
14:03 plants have chemosignals as well.
The fact that the one sense we can’t replicate in online communication is the one that subconsciously enhances empathetic feelings is perhaps not surprising. And this fact does not bode well for the future.
Yo
Edit: does depression affect the senses? Cuz for me it feels like I see, but everything is "out of focus". I can hear, but seem to hardly hear most of the time when someone's talking. I can smell, but It feels like I have out something over my nose preventing me from smelling properly. I can feel things touch me, but it feels that I'm not here, like here, but not at the same time. After talking a cold shower, my stress lowered and my heartbeat dropped and I literally was able to think, feel, sense a lot better. It was temporary tho
With absolutely no medical education that I would present for myself, I would say 100% yes in my limited scope. Depression causes chemical signals and mental stress, and I would find it very hard to believe that wouldn't cause issues.
It could be disassociation, it's a feeling of a fugue state, like you're dreaming or watching yourself from somewhere else. I've experienced this sort of thing during severe depressive episodes. I figure that it's because our brains aren't equipped to process extreme emotions and we disassociate as a defense mechanism. Our brains do very weird things!
What you feel what others feels intellectually by thinking from there prospective
Doesn't the fact we can detect optical illusions by like looking at them another way of the same way for a While
My brain is busy I need. To focus here 🤫
Duu dogs again are above and beyond us.
Its inhumane what they did to that monkey.
You do so much work. And you give so much.
Your entire team should earn some kind of hall of fame!
What about Sensory Processing Disorder?
vEar is when you can hear a Prof. Farnsworth meme in his booming voice.
Glad y'all are back from sabbatical... I hope at least!
Just before I watch it, even if it is totally stupid I will krep this comment: my guess is it is some kind of reflex because of which we protect our hearing from potentionally incoming loud sounds by tightening some kind of muscle
Wow I formulated it really badly, but I was right
VEAR. Yeah. That happens w naughty gifs for me, made me bug out when I was a teen because I swore the computer was muted. 😂
I have a friend they tried the rubber hand illusion on and it didn’t work. I wonder if it’s how they did it or her cognitive issues.
Honestly I'd take a smaller gift card now, over a larger gift card later, for the sole reason that I am already at the place and can use it for the purchase I have already planned to make. Taking a gift card that I use later, even if it's larger, means I need to arrange for and expend effort to go back to the place again, spending more money in the process, and likely having to keep track of an expiration date. Chances are I won't even remember I have it and won't get to use it.
This might change if it was somewhere I actually have to go to regularly, but a fast food place? Naw. Gimme the little one I can use now, please.
Could the participants in the impatience study just be primed to read faster because of a very fast stimulus, rather than specifically because that stimulus was connected to fast food? And could the people who live in areas with more fast food not just be more impatient and move through life faster because fast food tends to pop up more in faster-paced, more urban environments where the whole pace of life is ramped up?
My mother have a hard time focusing on what's said on RUclips videos where the breathing between sentences is cut. Like reading on this text without the
room
between
sentences.
So anosmia may be able to blunt empathy. That might explain someone I know, actually.
So our bodies don't talk to us we just imagine feeling them well panic not pain maybe body parts have ghost
What i got from this is that the marvel superheroe daredevil is possible
For a moment, I thought the thumbnail was a rendition of the sage medallions from Ocarina of Time

RE blindsight, it is interesting because I am aphant. The loss of sight would plunge me into a world without images of any kind. I wonder if those with blindsight are more clearly able to see images in their mind, possibly hyerphantic, which allows them to compensate for this lack of vision? To an aphant, most of the world is clairvoyant (can "count sheep" in their minds eye to various degrees). It also makes me wonder if those who have anauralia (a silent mind) also, can experience VEAR like those who are clairaudient (can hear sounds, eg their "mothers voice" in their mind)?
RE fast food. Correlation isnt causation. There really are more fast food places in areas of higher poverty. Areas of higher poverty tend to live hand to mouth more. You wont find a maccy Ds in Belgravia, only outside it.
"Etymology of Clairvoyance:
Clarity - the ability to think clearly / brightness of mind (Latin)
Clair - clear (French), Voir - to see (French)
Clairvoyant - clear sighted perspective (French)..
This is how this useful language breaks down for me, and why it might be helpful to those of us who think in ways not yet fully understood by science:
Clairvoyance = Clarity of thought in visions (100%, Hyperphantasia - 0%, Aphantasia)
Claircognizance = Clarity of instant thought (reflex cognition - ah-ha moments, intuition, muscle memory, genetic memory and fight or flight responses)
Clairaudience = Clarity of thought in sound (0% Anauralia)
Clairolfaction / Clairalience = Clarity of thought in smell
Clairgustance = Clarity of thought in taste
Clairtangent / Clairtactile = Clarity of thought in touch
Clairsentience = Clarity of thought in feelings (0%, Alexithymia)..
Could there also be a...
Clairchronoception - Clarity of thought regarding time?
Clairspatial - Clarity of thought regarding spatial awareness?
Clairthermoception - Clarity of thought regarding temperature?
Clairnociception - Clarity of thought regarding pain?
Clairproprioception - Clarity of thought regarding body movement, force and position?
Maybe there are people who can see the past and future at one end of the extreme?
It also makes sense to me now, why some people with Parkinson's can see Machine elves, why patients with PTSD can have visual or emotional flashbacks, how schizophrenia patients hear voices and see visions, how tulpamancers can create tulpas, why dementia patients can mentally 'time hop' uncontrollably, why some people suffer psychopathy and how psychogenic drugs can cause trips. Even why some people can smell colours or taste numbers and maybe why some people get phantom limb pain.
Are our individual minds like a fingerprint, unique to us all? A mixing deck of senses; that we all have different levels and combinations for, in order to achieve balance?
The new and growing understanding of the human mind is fascinating to one that is silent and blind. I look forward to there being accepted language to discuss it all."
2:40 ish is so real for me. I play a lot of first person shooters. My sound actually dictates my memory. I have tested this over 100 times and my sound memory is always perfect. My visual is
.. whatever it feels like lol
Wonder how many of the ones that heard visuals ever took LSD. When I took LSD peoples bodies would start forming the letters in the words they spoke.
So we know the sweat pads from people giving speeches causes empathy, but I wonder if the audience can effect a speaker/singer and it can be used to counter stage fright and maybe help people that are bad test takers.
There's 2 amydelas on the each hemisphere
I couldn't exactly hear the gif, but I sort of felt the crash in my ribcage. Does anyone else or am I just a weirdo?
Similar, didn't hear it but made me think to brace myself, so I think it's a response to the inner ear bracing itself.
Oh boy howdy
🤔 On the vEAR topic, is the sound a foreing one to the listener? Otherwise, imaginatiom and memory alone could be convincing enough to the brain of the "sound" is being heard, no? I have not met a person who can describe what a didgeridoo sounds like (if they've never heard it before) 🤷🏻♂️
Interesting bit about the sensory receptors of the limbs 🤔
Now bodily odour can tell animals a lot about other animals. But with humans I think it's an impairment because it deters a potential partner rather than attracting them. Now we love when our partner has a nice cologne or lotion on themselves but when it comes to bodily odour, we are creating distance.
2:55 theory¿ More like hypothesis.
22:32 that is the one of the most absurd things i've literally ever heard, people aren't more impatient and in a rush because fast food exists, its because of the rush and forced productivity mindset that shoved onto us by capitalism and all of advertising not just fast food, and the propagandic lie that if we grind we can be rich too someday and not have to grind so much, which the economic situations of generations of americans has proved wholly false
If a guy naturally produces a smell that makes women lose cognitive ability. And will ..who fault is it if your daughter does stuff with him that goes against her principals
3:36 When I'm in bed and the lights are off and the house settles, the creak makes a really bright white flash in my mind. I've always wondered why the noise makes a light in my head lol. It's a weird thing to try to even explain.
6:04 how do you say "species"? Is it spe-SEES or spe-SHES?
I think, therefore i am
There's no debate on 'gif' vs 'jif' pronunciation - the literal inventor of the format says it's 'jif'.
Where’s the gif
where the tweet tho
( of the bouncing radiotower )
Some random RUclips commenter be like ,,hold my beer..
Surgically making a monkey blind is a little messed up.
But what really had me surprised was that David Bowie and Trevor Noah both had blindsight.
I don’t think $120 thirty days from now is a significant enough amount of money to test patience
could this affect the way people can be so easily moved to go to war? After all, the ''nicest'' people can become brutal fighters because influential leaders persuade them that their country needs defending when this may not be as literally true as they fear. Our species needs to learn peace as a way of life if we are to continue to survive and evolve.
So smell is tied to empathy. Covid messes with smell. Is that why the world is on fire right now?🤷🏻♀️
ah some GIF do have sound now
So if we separate by 6 foot, this natural sense is pointless.
Hearing “Gif” pronounced wrong as “Jiff” like “Jiff Skippy Peanut Butter” has me irrationally irked.
I thought they were going to get rid of the channel
What do microbes sound like
OMG if you say JIF one more time I’m gonna lose it. It’s GIF. It’s an image, not peanut butter. Lol
You probably have dozens of people saying this already, but "jif"s? so it's 'Jraphic Interchange Format"? Jood, just Jrate.
The answer is 42.
Poor monkey
JESUS QUIT CALLING THEM JIFFS
Gif not jif, fungi not funji
It's not pronounced jraffick, therefore it's not pronounced jif
The Lord our God created all forms of Perception,
He is sight, so He sees all that can be seen,
He is hearing, so He hears all that can be heard,
He is touch, so He feels all that can be felt,
and smell too, and all the others.
When you see something, He sees it.
When you hear something, He hears it.
When you feel something, He feels it.
Imagine seeing all that you have seen all at once,
but also so much more.
Imagine hearing all that you have herd all at once,
but also so much more.
Imagine feeling all that you have felt all at once,
but also so much more.
Every pain you have ever had, or will have,
He has felt it, and feels it, always.
When you hear a sound so loud it defense you,
He heard it, He felt that pain, and feels that pain.
Every second of His existence is a mountain of suffering,
that the whole of humanity's history can't even compare too.
And that suffering, is for life, for He is truly and completely good.
He could end his suffering,
with the wave of a hand, the snap of a finger,
or a whisper from his lips,
end existence, end all life,
but he has not done so, for He is all the is good,
and all that is good is Him.
Okay the fast food thing has to be correlation, not causation. You're really telling me that there isn't a more likely factor that would affect people's patience that's common to people living in different types of neighborhoods? 🥴
27:30 waiting 30 days for $20 just doesn’t really seem worth it. I can make $20 in less than an hour
