The Barnum or Forer effect is the tendency for people to judge that general, universally valid statements about personality are actually specific descriptions of their own personalities. A "universally valid" statement is one that is true of everyone—or, more likely, nearly everyone. It is not known why people tend to make such misjudgments, but the effect has been experimentally reproduced.
The psychologist Paul Meehl named this fallacy "the P.T. Barnum effect" because Barnum built his circus and dime museum on the principle of having something for everyone. It is also called "the Forer effect" after its discoverer, the psychologist Bertram R. Forer, who modestly dubbed it "the fallacy of personal validation".

Chronic "grass is always greener" syndrome
Im curious what Ni types think about this music (or anybody). How do you react to it? Do you associate anything.
Its interesting music. Also kindof scary, nightmarish..

The decisive thing is not the reality of the object, but the reality of the subjective factor, i.e. the primordial images, which in their totality represent a psychic mirror-world. It is a mirror, however, with the peculiar capacity of representing the present contents of consciousness not in their known and customary form but in a certain sense sub specie aeternitatis, somewhat as a million-year old consciousness might see them.

I'm still listening to it now. It's oddly comforting. Yea, it makes me feel really nice.

It sounded pretty Ni- to me. I might be biased bc I speak both german and french, but it made me think of two old lovers separated by life; first they write each others letters(Briefe) and then decide to meet in the big city a winter evening(la neige; j'écarte tes cheveux). The woman gets the letter with meeting time and date too late. So many people, so many voices(Menschen), cars, planes(can hear those at some point); it's cold, his feet are numb. He looks for her in the faces of unknown people. When she arrives, he's not there anymore.
Said in German at some point: "When people are far away, you can think of each other; when they are near, you can touch them; everything else exceeds human power." ("Man kann an einen nahen Menschen denken, und einen fernen fassen; alles Andere geht über Menschenkraft" -> just looked it up, it's a quote by F. Kafka)

That was a lot of imagination. Do you feel that it came with the music or was it more like a day dream that appeared as you listened but not necessarily connected to the sounds?
I didn't imagine much. I had feelings hard to describe about distance, memory, familiarity, closeness. Like around 1 min there is a sound of an airplane far away. I felt the distance in the air, a feeling of change, something moving, huge body in the sky, human activity. There was also a cough that contrasted nicely with the other sounds, like suddenly bringing forward the human body or everyday sounds. Somebody turned a page, the sound of paper, and then it repeated but blended together like the whole book was flying away. These things are hard to describe.

Nice that you were able to build some kind of story like that. I didn't think much what the words meant, I did understand some of the German. The repeating of the "Briefe" sounded mostly scary and unnatural to me, something stuck in the head. There was some Finnish also but I couldn't hear what they were saying.
I agree that the music sounds "Ni", although I would have a hard time explaining what exactly it is.

Because Si is experienced in the object itself I have been wondering if it is the same with Ni. It's still a little unclear to me how much Ni is connected to the experience that caused it. So is the intuition experienced in the music itself, or more on the side. I have thought that it is experienced in the object (the music), but I am not sure. Well it doesn't matter now, I might figure it out someday.
I was just absorbing the atmosphere and feeling tone of it. But I didn't try to make sense of it actively. My world is mostly about vague sensing and feeling tones, so it's on a pretty "primitive" level. It also seems that I never understood the main theme of the work that the artist was trying to convey. https://saariaho.org/works/stilleben/

this is wrong, thats Se, Si is heavily focused on how the object makes the subject feel physically.
Ni is pretty much akin to ''gut feeling'', and intuition in the every day sense of the word. Somehow unconsciously knowing the outcome or ''knowing'' you should or shouldnt do something.

Can't believe I never realized how motivating this would be for a run before today. There's always a desperate steeliness in anything Richter plays.
The Menuetto from Beethoven's 1st symphony. This is such a good expression of a new spirit. Like waking up from a refreshing sleep and going out into the world again.
