Pedro Almodóvar & Fabio McNamara “Monja, Jamón”
In a similar manner to the illusions produced by Diana Deutsch’s “High-Low” recording and the “DK Bose” song (described in earlier posts), the joke comes from a Spanish children’s game, in which, when the sound “Jamón” – “Ham”, is repeated over and over, listeners tend to perceive the illusion “Monja” – “Nun”. The song is a duet between film director Pedro Almodóvar and musician and painter Fabio McNamara. Related symbolism is alluded to in the movie “Jamón Jamón” (directed by Bigas Luna, starring Penélope Cruz, Javier Bardem and Jordi Mollà).
