Listen to music and watch different programme TV-subtitles

I sometimes have the TV on when I listen to music and I watch the news subtitles at the same time.

When I was in high school, back in the last century, we would gather in one friend's basement and listen to music and watch the TV picture. It was astounding how often there was correlation. Our perception may have been "enhanced," but nevertheless, the synchronicity was mind blowing.

Works particularly well with sporting events (ie: today's Super Bowl) and sitcoms ..... and for me even better without the subtitles.

I watch sports on tv with the sound off all the time whilst listening to music - most of the commentators waffle far too much anyway.... Big Grin

I once watched a live baseball game and listened on headphones to Music for 18 Musicians by Steve Reich. It was the most perfect juxtaposition one could imagine. Try it sometime.

Try the Cartoon Network with no sound, with some strong bangin' techno in the background.
