Making Sense: How sound becomes hearing

In the same way optical illusions trick our eyes, audio illusions
can trick our ears. This raises a fundamental question: What is
hearing, and how much of it is made up by our brains? This is the
first episode of our new six-part series, Making Sense. You can
find more of Diana Deutsch’s auditory illusions at
