Could you train your senses to become more acute?

only when you were looking through the lens of the camera.

Might be in one of Oliver Sacks books, I can't remember where I first came across it.

 

You can also make your depth perception better by using a device to make your eyes effectively closer together.
Once removed, depth perception will be heightened.

At least this is what I assume as the revesre has been reported with a device that makes your eyes effectively further apart.

 

sounds somewhat like an exaggeration. nevertheless deaf is deaf and although you will use your other senses more, or rely on them more i have to say with no perturbation that they will never become more enhanced.

 

Thanks. That's pretty awesome

It was not a god damn exaggeration.

 

There has been a study that shows that people who play first person shooter games have better night sight and better contrast recognition, something that sticks around even after you're done playing.

Marijuana improves night vision too

I kind of wish I was still deaf now.

I've lost my tolerance for super loud music. Certain high frequencies hurt me.

Poo.

 

yes it's called synaptic plasticity but it takes more than a day.

Experiments with monkeys that had their third digit cut off shows how the brain then shifts to process information from the other areas of the hand in that area. So, if you went deaf your brain would begin to process other information in the area that it used to process hearing.

anyway, take a read of synaptic plasticity.
