I've always been aware of many neurological curiosities, and I've never been able to determine whether most people truly don't have them or are simply not aware of them (or whether there's a difference, but my pet theory is that with appropriate training, others can become aware of, and experience them, because they're a result of us being analogue beings and not perfect computers).
I'm aware of the visual noise, and the multiple layers of auditory effects (from the mild tinnitus I have, to the sound of my blood pumping through my veins, and the "general brain noise" that leaks into my auditory processing).
I've found the auditory events when falling asleep somewhat disturbing, they often come after especially stressed days and are accompanied by a particular "feeling in my brain" which feels analogues to a mild muscle twitch. To me, it's not as much a boom as, the creaking sound like that made by an old-fashioned magnesium flashlight right after being fired.
Often I experience flashes of light on those same nights as the explosions, I think both are related to some kind of seizure-like event, but very mild. I don't have epilepsy.
