Today in class you will be exploring The Ear Pages, a site dedicated to Nobel Prize winner Georg Bekesy and his discoveries about the ability of the human ear to detect frequency (in sound waves).
When you finish, there are number of sites you might choose to explore, including some of the ones I have shown you in class over the past few days. The sound illusions work best with headphones.
- Holophonic Sound (sound illusion)
- Five Great Auditory Illusions
- The Counter-Rotating Spiral (motion afterimage)
- A Gallery of Visual Illusions (particularly good because the explanations are included)
- Another Blind Spot Locator
- Subjective (a.k.a. "illusory") Contours
