Like the prior post indicated, we do not hear sounds through
thermal electric sharing. Instead, our brains match shared thermal electric
energy with sounds represented in the signal. This post gives a snippet of how
our brains recognize the representation of sound in thermal electric sharing.
White Noise
Thanks to cable, digital TV, and internet broadcasting, the
sucky white noise screen that used to turn on when a television channel wasn’t
available has become obsolete. However, if you have ever heard it, loudly, in
particular, your brain will have a memory file on it. Here's an exercise to try it out.
Step 1. Play the video for
about ten seconds.
Step 2. Stop the video.
Step 3. Try to remember the sound.
Do you remember the sound? You should be able to remember the
sound. If not, play the video again.
Step 4. Remember the sound of white noise. Think about the memory. Can you actually hear the sound?
The correct answer is no. You cannot actually hear the sound. Your brain has created a memory
file for white nose, one that specifically pertains to this exercise. When you
recall the memory, a unique neuropulse plays in your brain that reminds you of
what the white noise sounds like.
If you were to receive a thermal electric signal from
someone who is sharing something about white noise, your brain, by default, will
recall the memory you just created (most recent file) to decode that part of
the signal.
Our brains make matches with the most recent, most relative information stored in our brains in order to interpret the information received in a thermal electric signal.
So in conclusion, when a person receives a thermal electric signal that pertains to sound, they recall memories of the sound to decode it.
