listening in the dark?


Is listening in the dark better?

Scientific research shows that people in the dark can hear significantly better. Senses always ‘fight’ for the brain’s attention. By removing vision, the ears are given more processing power, as it were, to digest sound. As a result you hear more details, you experience a greater sense of space and a greater sense of 3D. A scientific study says: “Closing the eyes affects the style of attending to auditory stimuli by modifying the perceptual relationship with the environment without changing the stimulus itself.”

Well of course the light waves interact unfavorably with the sound waves...
Seriously, I often close my eyes when I'm listening "seriously." There is the danger of slipping away for a moment and coming back and realizing I missed something but it's all good.
