Why does the ‘vibe’ change in a room when you turn the TV off?

1.07K views

Okay, it’s a hard feeling to explain in a title. And maybe it’s just me. Sorry for either/or.

Imagine you are sitting in your living room reading a book with your back to the TV. The TV is paused and you aren’t paying attention. But if you turn off the TV suddenly the room feels…*smaller?*

Is this an actual thing or is it just monkey brain?

I’ve often believed I can ‘feel’ when the TV is on even if it’s dark and muted. Almost as if you can feel the electricity humming. Turn it off and the humming stops, changing the energy in the room. This isn’t a guess or an attempt at explaining, just sharing that I’ve always felt something similar to what you described. Looking forward to a real explanation!
