I was really excited to understand why music affects emotions.
In fact, the music signal is input into the brain. After the integration of the brain areas, more complex things in the surroundings are eliminated. The brain response method stimulated by this music signal forms the most original and concise underlying "code".
Then use this code to awaken some memories, feelings, imagination, etc. that are extended by the same code.
And this code, in music, happens to be the code used by musicians when creating music--chords or melody trends, etc.
Right now.
The musician throws sadness at your brain, which processes the sadness and awakens your own experience of sadness.
Can you empathize?
In fact, it is derived from each individual, and there are not many things that extend under this kind of underlying code.
Those who have suffered a lot of love-breaks will naturally be able to better understand the code of broken love, and passionate young people will be able to better understand the code of passionate love.
This is how music affects emotions and the principle of empathy.
Li Jinglin chuckled.
There was no unnecessary reaction.
He just said it very calmly.
"Actually, these are very simple things. For people in the music industry, they should be considered common sense."
"ah?"
The UP owner was stunned.
As an UP master, I actually interact with UP masters in the music area on a daily basis.
common sense?
Brother, do you have any misunderstandings about common sense?
"I kind of understand why this music can affect emotions."
The UP master shook his head.
Out of curiosity, he continued to ask.
"Brother, tell me, how does music affect mood swings?"
"As for how music affects mood swings."
Li Jinglin pondered for a moment and organized his words.
Then he continued to speak.
"Music is the art of time. The human brain is very sensitive to the analysis of music time. In other words, most people can basically sing a birthday song along with the general melody."
"But it is not very sensitive to space. For example, if several notes are played at the same time, that is, a chord, ordinary people's processing of this information is very rough."
"In terms of music theory, people are more sensitive to melodies on the time line, but it is more difficult to identify the harmony, texture, and overall level of the space line."
Some things, you won’t know until you mention them, but as soon as you mention them, you will suddenly discover them
Damn, that seems to be the case.
The UP owner felt this way at this time.
Think carefully about how you feel when you listen to music.
The memory of the melody is the clearest, but obviously, the drum beats, harmony, texture, and layers of the accompaniment.
This thing does affect the feeling of listening at the time, but if you want to say how it can be analyzed and paid attention to, that is obviously impossible.
They all follow the melody, beating many rhythms.
"It is precisely because of the complex processing of music and the obvious perception of time that in the continuous melody, the brain will constantly be updated by the version when integrating information and begin to predict the next step."
"This is the inertia of music, which is reflected in ordinary people. Most of them can hum the melody from the beginning, and most of the melodies they hum are songs that they are very familiar with."
"Then suppose that I suddenly change one of the notes in the melody direction that everyone is accustomed to, and greatly deviate from the processing habits of ordinary people's brains in the subsequent music. What will happen?"
Speaking of which.
Li Jinglin paused slightly.
"It's like the driver is driving you home, but suddenly he makes a left turn on a road you are familiar with and enters a road that is completely unfamiliar to you. How do you feel?"
When I heard this.
The UP master suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
It seemed that he understood what Li Jinglin wanted to express.
"Then he's probably not going to kill me!"
"Haha, this is the feeling, this is the feeling brought by the change of melody."
Li Jinglin laughed.
Although the answer to the question is a bit off, that’s the feeling.
"You feel a little nervous, a little uneasy because you can't predict what's going to happen next."
"But when the driver turns another corner and returns to a neighborhood you are familiar with, and tells you that there was construction work there just now and you have to go around, will you feel safe again? And because of the uneasy contrast just now, Feel peace of mind more clearly?"
"It's like your mood has gone around in a big circle and you're back to where you started?"
"Don't say it, it's true!"
UP's eyes lit up.
Don't tell me, this wave of even wheat is worth it.
I always feel as if I have come into contact with another wonderful world.
"In music creation, whether it is the way of writing harmony, the direction of melody, or the timbre, rhythm, and sound contrast, in fact, they can all clearly give people complex feelings."
"I just said that most people are very sensitive to the expression of time in music, and their perception of space is relatively rough. But please note that I am only talking about roughness, not that you can't feel it. It's just that the comparison of feelings The changes to the melody appear very light.”
"So, if my melody stays the same, and I always let a person feel that the direction of the melody is generally within the range of my expectations, and I make big changes in space and use completely different chords with peace of mind, how will it feel? ?”
Li Jinglin once again came up with an easy-to-understand analogy.
"It's like the same driver is still walking on a familiar road, but on the road there are a group of children after school, a mysterious rider, and an old man crossing the road. It just so happens that it's raining and thundering at this time."
"Do you feel that there is an element of uneasiness on the road to peace of mind? Is this feeling of uneasiness similar to that of walking on a different road just now, but completely different and more hidden?"
Damn it!
UP master direct pupil earthquake.
It's really completely different.
The former is to be wary of unfamiliar roads and drivers.
But the latter is extremely safe for the driver and on the road, and is wary of other surrounding influencing factors.
And this kind of vigilance is actually relatively hidden.
"Yes, music uses this kind of change and invariance to influence the human brain's integrated processing and analysis of music signals, thereby affecting emotions. Once the affected emotions are connected into lines and the listener makes associations, then, Naturally, there’s an aesthetic frisson.”
Li Jinglin smiled slightly.
"For example, a strange and uneasy mood is followed by a sudden and complete emotional release, a happy melody is broken at a certain moment and then suddenly becomes melancholy. In fact, it is through the changes and invariances in music, and the contrast between high and low in changes, to guide emotions. It allows people to move from one emotion to another in different ways, either wildly or gently, and after the emotional fluctuations occur, they will naturally feel refreshed."
"This is a psychological fluctuation created from the melody of the timeline."
"What if it is more complicated? That is to decorate the structure of the space based on the melody of the timeline."
"This is why the same melody, different versions, will give people different feelings. This is a change in the spatial level."
Speaking of which.
Li Jinglin suddenly smiled.
A "familiar" example was given.
"Listen to Above the Moon, listen to the symphony version!"
"Ah! I've heard of this before."
UP nodded repeatedly.
He immediately realized what Li Jinglin wanted to say.
really!
"Actually, the symphony version of Above the Moon will be more stable and strong. So where does this stability and strongness come from?"
"There has been a change in time. The original melody has not changed, but the duration of the notes has become more even, which brings a sense of stability."
"On the spatial level, symphony, multiple elements, and multiple information fill the entire space level, resulting in heaviness."
"A painting can be felt at a glance whether it is empty or full. The same is true for music. Whether it is thin or full depends on the content at the spatial level."
"Okay, okay, if you want to say that, I will be your friend."
The UP owner chuckled.
"As long as you also like Brother Lin, then we will be good friends!"
"?"
Li Jinglin was stunned for a moment.
So do I like Li Jinglin?
"."
I like it, but only a little bit. I love myself, but I don’t want to be narcissistic.
Right now.
UP suddenly said "Hey" again, and Li Jinglin's CPU almost burned out.
"Hehe, I like to hear what you say, please give me a few more compliments on Brother Lin."
"?"
"Pfft! Hahahahaha!"
Luo Shiyao couldn't hold back any longer.
It is hard to imagine that a fan asked Li Jinglin to praise Li Jinglin more in front of him.
It's so abstract.
Immediately, Luo Shiyao couldn't hold back her thoughts of causing trouble.
Luo Shiyao, who was starting to show off her drama, shook Li Jinglin's arm.
"That's right! My dear, Brother Lin is so great. Please praise Brother Lin more!"
"Hey, sister-in-law? Sister-in-law also likes Brother Lin?! Okay, okay, I feel relieved when I see so many fans of Lin."
The UP host smiled really heartily.
Interest came immediately.
"Have you heard of Li Jinglin's recent soundtrack for the Three-Body Problem? Damn it, that's so cool!"
"Also, and also, the music from "Hall of Valor" and "Elden's Ring" is really shocking."
Talk about excitement.
The UP owner even let out a cry, as if he could let himself go completely through the network cable without any shameful scruples.
"Brother Lin, I'm so awesome!"
Luo Shiyao almost went crazy laughing.
But he still held it back, raising his hands in the air and shouting loudly for fear that it wouldn't be a big deal.
"Brother Lin! I'm so awesome!!"
It's hard to imagine Li Jinglin's mental state at this time.
The old face turned red, feeling a little uncomfortable.
I was so confused that I didn't know what to say.
It’s so funny that I can’t even get off the stage.
no.
Li Jinglin shook his head.
I need to get over this topic quickly.
Then, Li Jinglin coughed lightly.
Bite the bullet and try to blend in.
"yeah!"
"Brother Linlin, my god!"
