Media is everywhere and can affect us in many different ways. Sound is a major part of media and the way that sound is used ether through music or verbal communication can effect the way we feel, think or even act.
This is a video by Julian Treasure entitled: The 4 ways sound affects us. I found it very interesting and insightful to how the human body and mind react to sound. I hope you enjoy it and that it helps you identify the way you feel next time you 'hear' media.
Hi Erin! Yes this is very interesting. Media uses sound as psychological tools. They know what they are doing. Don't forget about propaganda as well.
ReplyDeleteThis is an interesting link which lists several links - some are about sound experiments: http://psychcentral.com/blog/archives/2008/08/18/top-ten-online-psychology-experiments/
