It’s medically called having kids.

Welcome to real life, where all audio signals are mixed in real time

Okay, so, here me out.

I ain’t no fancy neuroscience PHD major or nothin’, but…

Back in the day I was really into the band Radiohead and I was smoking a lot of…well, let’s just say “the Devil’s Lettuce”.

Radiohead released an album called Kid A and it was absolutely phenomenal. Well, sure as shit, someone on the internet found out something really interesting about that album. If you played two separate copies of that album from two different audio sources, and you started one copy precisely 17 seconds after the first, it would create some really trippy harmonic sounds and audio effects. It was dubbed Kid 17 by a small cadre of fans.

I know this isn’t necessarily an answer to your question, but just a personal anecdote. I feel like it’s kind of relevant here.

an experiment with words, first mixed (CAP ist first sentence, lower is second, but try to read all words first) then separated versions:

LET how ME does TRY it TO feel MAKE to YOU you COMPARE reading IT that TO sentence READING and TWO this SENTENCES question WITH in MIXED parallel? WORDS.

let me try to make you compare it to reading two sentences with mixed words.

how does it feel to you reading that sentence and this question in parallel?

actually reading this feels a bit similar to listening to different songs in parallel to me, but when reading these 1:1 alternating words (even with one sentence in CAPS) i do not recognise any meaning while reading, but when explicitly only reading CAP or noncap words. when listening to two songs in parallel this seems far more easy for me and seems to work. am i a musician?
