Sometimes I get it so strong on one side my back arches involuntarily it's the weirdest shit. I think it's a form of synesthesia - from audio to physical sensation. I've noticed it's similar to how a frisson feels when listening to music but more concentrated and localised. They've found unexpected changes in melody or dramatic climaxes in music tend to be more likely to trigger a frisson. It's similar in asmr - the mechanism for the tingle is easily worn out with a prolonged exposure - hence the videos trying to capitalise on "unexpected" triggers. It's poor asmr when someone goes close to the mic and repeats the trigger without pause or without change in distance or even volume. Sure the tingle is strong at first but loses strength very quickly. It can be vaguely "relaxing" but the euphoria is not sustained. An anticipation must be built - this is also why accents are good for asmr. The speaker naturally hesitates. What triggers do you like out of curiosity?
