This demonstration, together with spoken commentary, is on my CD 'Phantom Words and Other Curiosities' (available from Philomel Records - http://www.philomel.com). The sound demonstration is also posted on the website: http://philomel.com/phantom_words/description.html#sometimes and it's described in the booklet accompanying the CD, which is posted at: http://philomel.com/phantom_words/booklet/Happy Holidays!Diana Deutsch------------------------------------------------------ Professor Diana DeutschDepartment of Psychology University of California, San Diego9500 Gilman Dr. #0109 La Jolla, CA 92093-0109, USA858-453-1558 (tel)858-453-4763 (fax)http://www-psy.ucsd.edu/~ddeutschhttp://www.philomel.com ------=_Part_5231_5713183.1165970828646 Content-Type: text/html;charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable For those interested, I nice interview with Diana Deutsch on this topic was= broadcast on NPR's Radio Lab earlier this year, a recording of which can b= e downloaded here:<br/>http://www.wnyc.org/shows/radiolab/episodes/2006/04/= 21<br/><br/>--Brent<br/><br/><br><br/><br><br/>----Original Message----<br>= <br/>From: ddeutsch@xxxxxxxx<br><br/>Date: Dec 12, 2006 13:45 <br><br/>To: = <AUDITORY@xxxxxxxx><br><br/>Subj: sometimes behave so strangely<br><= br/><br><br/>Dear list,<DIV><BR class=3D"khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DI= V> I've had a number of requests for the sound demonstration I presented a= t the recent ASA meeting in Honolulu, in which the spoken phrase 'sometime= s behave so strangely' following several repetitions, appears convincingl= y to be sung rather than spoken - though there is no musical context and n= o physical transformation of the sound.
