where did the laurel yanni clip come from
Yanny or Laurel The mixed re-recording was created by students who played the sound of the word "laurel" (a laurel wreath), while re-recording the playback amid background noise in the room.[4] The audio clip of the main word "laurel" originated in 2007 from a recording of Jay Aubrey Jones, an opera singer,[5] who spoke the word "laurel"[6] as one of 200,000 reference pronunciations produced and published by vocabulary.com in 2007.[3][7][6] The clip was made at Jones' home using a laptop and microphone, with surrounding foam to help soundproof the recording.[8]
