I really like this book! I didn't realize how big of a influence music has in our lives and how our brains work to create it. I liked the question, when a tree falls in the woods and nobody is there to hear it, does it make a sound? the answer is no because our eardrums and brains are what create the sound from sound waves that move air molecules. That is pretty cool stuff. I also like how he explained the influence music has in our lives like when we are watching a scary movie different pitches and frequencies tones and rythems are used to create that nervous and scary feeling. That is powerful. Also, for example, in the advertising world music is used to make us feel that someones product is better than the others. The organized sound around us or "music" is so important and I think it might be the art that most influences us as humans.
