  2. A recent North Carolina State University study demonstrates that both the visual stimuli of natural landscapes and the auditory stimuli of birdsong are associated with significant reductions in human psychological stress compared to urban environments.

  7. New #openaccess article published in Trends in hearing! "Probing the Underlying Mechanisms of Spectro-Temporal Modulation Discrimination". Can you discriminate a rising frequency sweep from a downward one, in the presence of a background noise? Using reverse correlation, we investigated listeners’ sensitivity to specific frequency sweeps and the auditory mechanisms involved. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/
    Huge thanks to Lily Paulick for transforming a very complex set of data into a clear and rigorous paper!

  12. Music often appears to arise from intuition. Composers and producers describe the creative process as following a feeling for harmony, rhythm, texture, and timing. Yet listeners often respond to certain musical gestures in strikingly similar ways. A harmonic shift intensifies tension. A rhythmic change alters perceived movement. A melodic peak can create a moment of release.

    These recurring reactions suggest that musical emotion does not arise from artistic intention alone. It also reflects how the human brain processes sound. Research in neuroscience and cognitive psychology shows that musical perception involves several interacting neural systems: auditory analysis in the cortex, emotional processing in limbic structures, motor synchronization with rhythm, and reward responses connected to expectation and resolution.

    For composers, this perspective raises an interesting question. If specific musical structures engage attention, anticipation, and pleasure in consistent ways, how can this knowledge inform composition without turning music into a formula? Scientific understanding does not replace intuition. It clarifies why intuitive musical decisions often work and why certain musical forms reliably move listeners.

    My new essay examines this intersection between artistic practice and neuroscience. It discusses how harmony, rhythm, melodic contour, and sonic texture interact with perception, memory, and emotional processing in the brain, and what this relationship means for the act of composing.

  23. Watching a video on why the 12 tone scale is what it is and I came across this quote:

    "As with all things in music theory, it's not instruction, it's insight."

    Given the number of people who view music theory as prescriptive, I think that quote is excellent.
