    Encouragement to do a double blind test on this one; box up some LED’s with a power strip, one on and one off, have the person who set them randomize which are on and then you guess which (neither, R, L, both). Repeat a few times.

    I know similar experiences aren’t predictive, the sound is a kind of synesthesia with the concept of running electronics (which is itself pretty cool/interesting!).

      A double blind would mean no results are discovered lol.

      A single blind test would be fine.

      And yes, I’ve done this. I’ve turned away from a device, and my partner either toggled a switch powering thw device, or a switch which wasn’t connected to anything.

      Perfect accuracy.

      Edit: I replied when i first woke up. I didn’t read carefully.

      Neat experiment idea but I don’t have a tools for that lol.

      If I ever do, I’ll pin this message and reply to it :p
