Music, food for thought. by Claudia Sonea

Silence please there is music playing. According to a study conducted by a team of researchers from Stanford University School of Medicine music stimulates the areas of the brain involved with paying attention, making predictions and updating the event in memory. The purpose of studying how the human brain sorts the events lead to another discovery, that 200 years ago music helps the brain to organize the incoming information. Bad news for me, I'll have to switch from P. Diddy to Mozart when I study for my finals. Furthermore, I will use mostly my right part of the brain and could sharpen its ability to anticipate events and sustain attention. So in the future music will be considered a medicine that will help you to memorize and be more attentive at classes and why not for children that are born with medical problems concerning the movements coordinates. I guess that will be a better way than the usual one. The future is bright, says an Orange ad, and we could put our hopes in it thanks to all the technologies. Instead of starting wars and conflicts, we should unite and make researches in finding cures for all the diseases that kill thousands of people every year. We could do so many things, because we are gifted with minds and the activities in which we train it should be to create a better world. Music is the food of love according to Shakespeare, but doctors say it is the food of thought, don't waste it on songs that are merely noises, try something new. I know it will be hard at the beginning saying bye-bye Diddy, but it worth. Enjoy your track.
