The documentary was excellent. I was fascinated by how all of our senses are intertwined and they work together as one and not individually. The part of the video with the "ba" vs "fa" sound experiment was very cool. I watched it several times and even though I knew the sound was "ba" all the time, when I looked at the movements of the man lips I heard "fa". Very interesting how our brains interpret the senses. The interview with a woman with synesthesia was very interesting to me. I can't imagine how is to live with the sense of linking one sensory percept to another. I would love to have this ability at least for a day to experience what synesthetes experience daily. The experiment with cooking

    Because the experiment takes place in a laboratory, Baumrind argues that participants will not act how they might in the real world. She states that the laboratory is an unaccustomed setting for a typical being and may cause anxiety and passivity (225). Correspondingly, Saul Mcleod, a psychologist who summarizes and critiques Milgram’s experiment, states that the “important” location of the experiment, obedience levels increased (Simply Psychology). The point about setting is one in which Baumrind and Parker are able to reach a consensus.…

Sending little children who one day are the face of our country being sent to poorly funded schools is not fair and every child deserves the same education.

    When the video talked about how children were sent away to boarding school because their parents did not know how to handle them or communicate with them, it broke my heart. These children did not have regular communication with their families so they seemed to rely on the other children for love and support. Hearing the interviewees talk about their schooling adventure was pretty cool because they all had similar experiences. However, their experiences were not the best. Many of the people interviewed said that their deafness was treated as a handicap that…

The fact that Jill nearly died and she could find nirvana or peace within herself, means that anyone is fully capable of finding peace within themselves. In addition, if Jill can find something positive in something as frightening as a stroke, we can find the positive in any situation. The RECEIVER of the message was the audience that watches her speak.…

    For this writing assignment I was instructed to watch the video “The Magic of the Unconscious: Automatic Brain.” The video, “The Magic of the Unconscious: Automatic Brain,” was about a series of illusions that fool people on an everyday basis. The video discusses our everyday routines that we have become unaware of because we do not realize our brain is doing most of the work. It goes in-depth, providing information about the different types of mind tricks that humans do not realize and are essentially blind to. Specifically, the video informs the viewers on the concepts of humans being unconsciously aware of concepts such as selective attention, or our ability to only focus on certain things at once, and how our body has billions of electrochemical…

    Acoustics is the branch of physics concerned with the study of sound. Sound is a wave made of vibrations in the air. Waves can be measured in a range of different ways: by their amplitude, wavelength, frequency, speed, and, at times, their phase. Sound information is transmitted by the amplitude and frequency of the vibrations, where the amplitude is experienced as loudness and frequency as pitch. The vibration is started by some mechanical movement and this causes a vibration on the molecules next to the mechanical event.…
