| PSwii60 said: Exposure to music since birth certainly plays role but our minds do have certain organizational method when it comes to music, or in fact sounds in general. I like to think that all our senses affects our brain functionality which influences our emotions that ultimately molds our very personality, us. That's where point of view and perception meet. |
Music and sounds effecting emotion is a given. We have 2 kids and it's very obvious how effective singing, music or relaxing background sounds are to calm a baby down and help him or her sleep. And I just stopped in the middle of my thought process because a good song came on. Certain soundtracks will give me goosebumps and more then half of the emotion in movies come from the music.
I'll watch the 2nd video tonight when I have time, I'm curious what they have to say. Hopefully there will be a few pointers how to get rid of a song that is stuck in your head :) What's that all about.
Musical awereness is a big part of perception. Different cultures have differen musical styles. The funniest thing was watching Paul Merton in China, trying to sit through a 6 hour Chinese opera. "It's making my ears bleed"
It's also a big part in generational awareness. Those kids nowadays don't know what real music is!
