+306 It's amazing how we are able to differentiate between voices and just plain noise, even if the voices are heavily distorted, amirite?

I was actually thinking of Skrillex when I made this post, though screamo is a good example.

I forget. We learned it in science like 8th grade year. It has something to do with voices. Or maybe wood.

Well, in the movie WallE, the robots' voices were just noise (washing machine, doors opening) remixed to sound like voices. I think it's the language we recognize, rather than sound waves itself.

But even if you don't understand a language you can tell it's a voice.
