I experienced "hearing motion" in most of them, although the more abstract videos tended to bring it out most strongly. I seem to respond best to periodic patterns involving changes in brightness -- the police lights consistently gave an set of four... ehh, "thumps"... increasing in subjective pitch.
It's really hard to describe what exactly it sounds like, because it's not really sound that I'm perceiving. It's like the shadow of a sound that could have been.
- iwuglugihwhieug 10y agoexactly the same as me! and "shadow sounds" is the perfect term for it! almost any motion involving acceleration generates shadow sounds, for example watching people walking creates a wooop-wooo-wooop-wooo (rising-falling) sound flashing lights (emergency services) is the most powerful, like you it's "thumps" at different pitches timed exactly to the lights I also get the same in reverse: when I listen to music I "see" moving shapes in a dark space
