Blue planet our world we tend to describe its beauty in terms of what we see and treat our site as our primary sense. But in recent Years New Research has pointed toward the importance of hearing of the sounds of our world and how we process them. Hearing it seems is more important than we thought. Some even believe its the key to our futures. Music is inbuilt within our d. N. A. Within our genes. Our society becomes faster and faster and faster they have to get information out of the environment they are a quickly the auditory channel is quicker than the visual channel. This big developments happening in technology at the moment and a lot of people sue not all about the visual but if you dont get the sound right then your sensor motion completely disappears. So i want to look at the right way to how people react to every day sometimes so if i go out and about a normal day i kind of theres lots of sounds im not really paying attention to little and i will be taking my is my brain will be taking unconsciously but my conscious brain isnt aware of it. Some aspects of all the channel are faster than other senses and thats because we might think of hearing as being something to do with speaking like i am now in communication but that she. Its an Early Warning system and thats what its 1st evolutionary purpose. Good to see youre welcome to the sound will come its a really noisy place isnt it you would believe under these railway is the simplest amazing sounds which will make you about this wonderful call coffin and follow me. The most just as a listener around here just. One can hear. You know. Something maternal longboard miss my. Point and see we hear. You as a slight back of the sofa for news on the 1950 s. Rock n roll and musician here thank you its good its got a great sound effect but it just calls by the you know the brick is just keeping the sound here not to sound is probably spinning around inside of this curve but you have the bottom coming back and its probably also going along the top of the water and coming back again so yeah its amazing amazing contribution by signs the mystery is how is this. Get across its give me around the top of the bridge was it just going straight and bouncing off the wall and coming straight back to you. Could even be both. I think sun can be both about listing and about vibration so from a purely so physical point if you can think of acoustic ways which a vibration they dont need someone to listen to to actually exist but actually to be of interest really you could have some of the animal whether its a human or whatever listening to the. Early ninetys i moved from a. Music listener to. Explore experimenting working on this topic you realize that is not really a 100 percent but the feeling what is reality existing outside us. Our brain its only delivering information to be needed in order to survive but you can very much money relate to your brain by giving it attention to a constant listening to the right. Its up to you how much of that to get. Itself. Really. Change our behavior in a radical way this can create moods that creates a physical reaction in the body the street noise loss just this is just already a language which can communicate so much we never speech of actually hearing because everything is moving everything with this living has a frequency thats a risk even if deep before we are born we have to experience of saw. One of the interesting things that i picked up on was how different the arches were i mean between them all because they all seem very similar in makeup and shape and size it depends what im focusing point as compared to the ground is above the ground and its not really a cliff but the head you dont hit face right on the ground you get this reinforcement sign goes down an up and down and up and theres all kind of weird accused effects which you know weve all been listening to for millennia i mean this is this ghost theories to. Is placed in places where the echoes of particularly interesting so you can paint a picture of a figure and you stand but by go back in the sun will come off and it will look like the persons to hit some other persons. Its rather strange as an archaeologist to have an interest in music because the past is of course totally silent to us. We know that some of the most elaborate painting patterns in the caves also in the case when you go. Most domestic acoustics. So we sped those paintings were soon seated with singing dancing musicality. This is a typical train or tram noise and i want to know your sponsors to. Be low enough i think im so yeah its really been pleasant on the ear how how calm and the theory has it is that there scraping sounds on pleasant because they sound a bit like a scream and in our brains we have a very short will sponsor mechanism to deal with danger thats what having was 1st of evolution it was an Early Warning system so youll find a lot of cities doing things like bringing fountains into squares because it gives you the sound of nature and you can do things the high traffic noise with it and of course we like the sound of nature is good for us you know in evolution returns were used to living not in a city but out in the countryside and when theres water thats thats going to be food thats going to be whats for us to drink so were not to find a pleasant sound. And was quite curious about sound is actually sound waves a really weak or physical point a few tiny little motions of kills but to us you know we have these big big emotional feelings responding to this week little force. Thank. The little book by. The the. When our early ancestors going back to maybe 3000000 years communicated with musicality they did that to express emotions to manipulate emotions to build socialization ships because that was before language so we asked what was all this ability to be receptive to sounds what was all being used to have minutes ago nothing was being used for making music rather than making conversations like modern. Humans are social creatures it was our hearing that enabled us to build communities and to secure the survival of our species through evolution. The importance of our audio functions can be discerned from the moment we are born. Babies are like superman when babies are born they are musical so they can discriminate between the rhythm of their native language and rhythms of other languages but more interestingly and at age of 4 days after birth babies are already crying in the stress pattern of their Mother Tongue its the genes had an influence on brain structure that made us at one point musical and also able to process language. So. I started playing piano when i was 3 i would just really sounds that i would hear in the room. And just learning by ear. Were growing closer cockle a kick out to 2. Children are perfect musicians and where they have to superior hearing and superior pitch and then somewhere along the way if those skills are perfected if theyre not worked on then you lose it but in its infancy i feel like bridges signed to be these perfectly pitched musical instrument. There is a huge space for innovation within the integration of music and technology that is going to come entirely from the younger generations. Im really interested in helping young girls young women get into. Said in the technological aspects of music making. Computers is actually de monetizing the Music Industry you could actually create an entirely new form of music and your honor and way of listening and writing music and the traditional approach to learning music is not necessary for that process and im excited to see where its going to go because its limitless. Were using different methods to see where and when the brain processes music so that those methods like functional Magnetic Resonance imaging where we put people into the scanner and see which brain areas consume more oxygen means they are active during listening to music playing music also we use methods like trance of philosophy where we have little sensors electrodes on the scalp to record brain potentials with a millisecond resolution to really tell when things are happening and we have methods where we stimulate the brain to make one brain area more or less efficient to see which effects this has on music perception and production. I started to play piano at the age of 3 and my family couldnt imagine that i could be a professional pianists a professional musician. Nobody of my family are musician i realize that music is so great means for me to have a conversation with the people and to get into the social like a child or to things in a wall with musicians who use both hands while playing this is done by the 2 hemispheres that need to communicate more strongly than in a nonmusician the auditory areas are refined musicians are better able to discriminate between 2 pitches ringback. We are fascinated by how musicians perform on stage with speed and accuracy and how they are doing this. Pianist when planning piano movements is always like 5 or 6 tones ahead in his or her mind. We were interested in whether we can influence this planning process maybe boost this planning process by brain stimulation. Nothing myself being here. The 2nd seat so today will do an experiment on music production. And why they are doing this week i asked him are they one area in your brain i asked located about here and to find this area ill do some near an education with you. What will happen us there so you are see hands of a pianist on the screen playing the piano playing what sequences and your task will be to do exactly the same on the piano on your own piano just the meat acting as you see on the screen all right ringback. And what we hope to find is that the stimulation indeed boosts performance boosts a planning process ace. So one could take this as a docking for the pianist but personally i admit i would prefer natural pianists because they are already performing accidentally on stage. I feel like were very very close with this whole reverse engineering Brain Research and if you can create this blueprint of all of the neural connections in your brain and build a supercomputer that would map all these functions out you can send very noninvasive a lot. Circle stimulus to your brain and be able to manipulate the emotional state the mental state so essentially thats going to change the way that we listen to music because we wont necessarily need speakers to you hear and experience music. One of the power of music for yourself is that it can have an influence on you and you dont know why. The history of music has not only had history. Of pain wall songs to manipulate and music has been used for torture and thats a terrible history. In england its been an Interesting Development where marks and spencers a big problem stories decided to turn off music entirely and there was silence which is an interesting choice because most shops are using music to manipulate behavior and so on this will surely home. How is it that some external combination of musical sounds has like an emotional impact on human beings perhaps there are certain frequencies that are more harmonious with the way that our physical chemistry is taking my music and switching it from 440 hertz to 432 and like listening to the differences so on my record i definitely did that to certain tracks and some of them sounded and just felt more warm and like much more brazen. 2 yeah experienced with the mafia a group of people who had never before listened to western type of music they hear a musical piece and the music really realize this is sad something that seems to be partly universal in this rituals experience a creative musical euphoria so we came up with this technology where we create music in a way that is physically very challenging and we just fitness. I mean you already have a number of effects just as if you just to music but when you actively do it. The effects are approximately. Double the strong. Gym in decreased n. C. I. Which in chronic pain is huge furthermore we found some you know logical effects where we find them on all sides concentration so the 1st beriah against infections and is increased often to jim. We are basically rediscovering all these effects and of probably played a huge role in the development of human civilization. When we make Music Together we are truly in harmony each player becomes part of a bigger whole. We feel good when we enjoy music and whether its being played by an orchestra a rock band a samba class an ancient ritual or even a fitness machine the music we make also leads us back to ourselves to our bodies. Studies indicate we have a sense of music even before we begin to use words. One could almost say the human brain is wired for music. And music was a 1st cause or language probably but also in our development. Were 1st as sensitive to music and for 1st that doing music or musical sounds before understanding or is speaking like more structured thames. So brantley for me is a project in which we are translating by. Electrical activity in the brain into sound we create music where motions so the emotions of the brain are translated into musical language part of this project is to provide people with different disabilities like Cerebral Palsy the opportunity to create music through the activity of their brains. Say i just want to hear we can see the signal from a friends brain in real time. This information gets analyzed which indicates if the motion is positive or negative strong or neutral we can basically watch as it changes yes for that there was no or the most. Commonly im not used to yes i know it but of this and then youll send this to me and well make music with the software because how do you decide what music to play at each moment. Some how we experience sounds is cultural but there is also internet component. When we play notes that create a harmony. Gives us a sense of pleasure in this but if we play notes that have nothing to do with each other then it feels like this. But spend it on the code you generate depends on the activity. The question is. We are now starting. Starting to use sounds in different aspects in music and music at a technology thats a bad there is still a lot of potential there and were not yet to use it. The field of music neuro science is a relatively new research area. And yet we already have technology which can have a positive impact on peoples lives now and new tools are constantly being developed. For music and when i was 9 years old that shows the drums because i cannot just be a drama. I start church of some. Ever feel some theres a celebration. For me expresses why feeling shows what i know i show it shows me off and especially my hearing loss ok. With the instrument itself you get the feel for the whole body through it the vibrations different vibrations through the whole body. Adam has a moderate hearing loss so its very its be varying levels of sound that he hears he does lip read a lot his personality started off quite shy but then he got into the drone and his confidence started to build up because hes joined music on the death and goes to yorkshire musical hes also now helping all the children in the cloth because he feels that hes got more to offer. I think with music being able to communicate through music is a good way to challenge your energies through in order to. To to to release the frustrations that you might have been at not being able to hear properly but the idea of music is to incorporate everybody you can be deaf you can be hearing you. In the blind and you can still have the opportunity to play music and create something together as a whole. Other ms become a different person since youve been playing and for minutes to see him grow through music it is quite exciting as a parent to say. It gives him a good start in life to be able to express himself out im going to bring about. With all this to do tomorrow night profit. On. The global music list. The children at the club have varying degrees of hearing loss. They will be using the new technological device for the 1st time ever to see how it effects how they experience music. Each vibrating backpack will be connected to every instrument in the room meaning it should allow its wearer to also feel the other instruments more intensely when everyone plays together. The subject is a taco audiovox that allows people to engage physically with music anything within the frequency range of 130. 00 in the high end when the love will be able to feel. In effect bring you closer to music. A lot of people are getting benefit from using it you know not just from a creation standpoint but also performance and putting across your music in the best possible way so people are feeling everything. They have. To do it. A. Bit. Oh do you believe he is going to be back. Here for this. So you know. You can feel the beat feel the rhythm feel different vibration going on the stabbing so the get to it and get people got caught here it could catch oh good mood j. B. Vibration on the enigma shops it was like a magic on your back is hard to describe and. I felt i could really hear myself. In the Natural World every sound has an echo even if these are sometimes hardly perceptible. The echo is not without purpose and comforts us so what happens when its removed the Anechoic Chamber is well known for being a place just because of the solid sound you make just disappears into the wall. The absence of echo and the Anechoic Chamber can feel unsettling 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2. And indeed if there were no sound and no echo our Early Warning system would not function but then you also have to have meant silence so if you shut up in that space youll start hearing sounds of your own body your brain is continually tweaking the id to make it for better. Could we survive on another planet. In space sound an echo function in a different way. Its the Anechoic Chamber space it depends what your condition is in space gosh if youre on a spacecraft its quite noisy. So its not a crowded place but its i suppose if you went outside the spacecraft in the moment trick 6 years before you died i guess you would hear sol its a bit like an echo chamber but i suspect the panic space around you might mean thats not the last thing youll be thinking about. Every sound in some places in space if you go to venus or mars is now saying that sound waves can travel now the properties are very different on those planets because theyre not oxygen rich. Is a medium to trouble. In the absence of a medium there is no sound however its all relative to what you define as space and whats within the space theres an entire spectrum of wave forms so you can use sonification techniques to represent audio in using any of these any of the state or any of these waveform i received these really wonderful sonification samples from these researchers at cern. The. Sound of 2 black holes collating. This page on collider in Geneva Switzerland
