As I was in bed, close to sleep, I was noticing how easy it was to imagine a sound into the real, full experience of the sound. There had been a beeping somewhere in the house, and I was able to imaginatively reshape the white noise of the air purifier into that exact sound, as loud and real as the original. I tried it with a few different ambient sounds I heard, and it worked.
Imagining Sounds: In this low-context state near sleep, we’re able to take any arbitrary stimulus and shape it into what we want or expect it to be.
