Crazy Theory: Reverse Speech
In my boredom-fueled web prowling, I decided to look up different backmasking lyrics. You know, songs in reverse. Stereotypically, these reverse lyrics are about satan. However, outside of Led Zeppeling and death metal bands, it's not as common. But backmasking isn't what this tale is about. In my search for backmasking, I found reverse speech.
Reverse speech, according David John Oates, is a subconscious form of speech. A 7th sense if you will. As we speak, are conscious mind speaks forward, while at the same time, are subconscious puts reverse speech in the sentence. Here is his theory.
THE THEORY OF REVERSE SPEECH AND SPEECH COMPLEMENTARITY.
(1) Human speech has two disctinctive yet complementary functions and modes. The Overt mode is spoken forwards and is primarily under conscious control. The Covert mode is spoken backward and is not under conscious control. The backward mode of speech occurs simultaneously with the forward mode and is a reversal of the forward speech sounds.
(2) These two modes of speech, forward and backward, are dependent upon each other and form an integral part of human communication. One mode cannot be fully understood without the other mode. In the dynamics of interpersonal communication, both modes of speech combined communicate the total psyche of the person, conscious as well as unconscious.
(3) Covert speech develops before overt speech. Children speak backwards before they do forwards. Then, as forward speech commences, the two modes of speech gradually combine into one, forming an overall bi-level communication process.
I'm tired, so I suggest visiting the website www.reversespeech.com. They have examples on there taken from famous people, where, apparently, you can hear there true thoughts and feelings. Either way, that's your crazy theory for the day.
