One thing I meant to add but forgot is the best way I can think to explain the effects of music in our minds and our ability to recall long sequences of notes is that human composed music is telling us a story that our brains already know.

Four four common time replicates the heartbeat and natural bodily rhythms but that does not really explain why music can so successfully alter emotional state in the listener. I think it is not really known why other than music connects with and is readily understood by organic brains, not just human in a very intimate way. For example a five minute piece of classical music is informationally very complex but a person is often able to hum it back after a single hearing and do so again years later. Repeating verbatim a five minute speech listened to is beyond most people and so it might be suspected that music is more native to the brain than is language.

Technology@lemmy.world•Welcome to the web we lostEnglish64·1 month agoThere are people who work late into the night creating something for the benefit of humanity or just for their own pleasure in creation. There are other people that take those things and bleed them dry to make profit to the point of ruination. There are yet others who use them to spew out hatreds that eat away everything good inside themselves and those that will seek out depravity. What we are getting in this is not the loss of any promise of the internet or the coming of AI but an uncomfortably clear reflection of what, in the mass we actually are.

Technology@lemmy.world•We Should Immediately Nationalize SpaceX and StarlinkEnglish1512·1 month agoHang on a minute, equivalents of SpaceX and Starlink could have naturally grown out of NASA, it was the obvious place for them to come from but NASA did not show that innovation and nationalisation of them might dilute their abilities. For clarity I am not suggesting the innovation came from Musk, he has no science or engineering, his talents are grifting, showmanship and taking credit for other people’s work, he is a natural figurehead though and seemed quite clear thinking until he lost his mind.
