"Visual microphone" can decode words from the vibrations in an object.
A MIT student has shown how the tiny vibrations caused by sound waves can be picked up by a high speed video camera, and decoded with software to figure out what sounds were being made.
The technique allows the researchers find out the subject of a conversation, for example, by watching the vibrations in a glass of water or a bag of chips.
I can’t
i was not prepared for this
If video games aren’t art, explain this???
You’re making a huge mistake if you watch this without sound

When people try to pick your character while playing video games…
Person1: Yo, dude, get off Yoshi?
Person2: Imma be Yoshi.
Person1: I’m always Yoshi.
Person2: Imma be Yoshi this time.
[ˆsword sound effect]
Person1: Give me Yoshi!
Person2: [panicking] Take it! Take it! Take it! Take it!
Yoshi is the best

I witnessed this epic battle at the Toronto zoo, these Red Pandas duked it out right in front of me five feet away, these beautiful creatures
Such squeaks

In the name of everything decent in this world, you have got to turn the sound on.
This happened near me. The mattresses were on the loose for half an hour.

@why-animals-do-the-thing what the heck?
This is priceless. Fur is a great nest-building material. Normally, birds get it from snags on branches or (maybe, I’m not sure) dead animals. I know some people who actually put out a bird-feeder full of hair for the birds after they brush out their dog, specifically so that it can be turned into nesting material.
This is a very brave birb who has learned where it comes from and just decided to go get some from the source, and a dog who is probably too asleep to care.

THAT’S THE SOUND IT MAKES!?!?!?

We got asked if this is cute and okay. I can very happily say yes, this is stupid cute and those are happy porcupine noises.
One of my favorite things about doing zoo work was all the noises you never realize the animals make when they’re excited or interested in a new thing. Coatimundis squeak and snuffle, and giant porcupines make that sound.
Omgggg the sounds.
