Question

Why Your Brain Craves Music

Melody and rhythm can trigger feelings from sadness
to serenity to joy to awe [...]. In the latest issue of Science,
Salimpoor, [...] a neuroscientist at McGill University in
Montreal, reports, along with several colleagues, [...] that
people get not just a sensory reward from listening to music,
but a direct intellectual one too -- even if they're not aware
of it. The nature of that reward, Salimpoor believes, based on
this and earlier research has to do with pattern recognition
and prediction. As an unfamiliar piece unfolds in time," she
"our brains predict how it will continue to unfold."
These predictions are culture-dependent and based on
experience someone raised on rock or Western classical
music won't be able to predict the course of an Indian raga,
for example, and vice versa. But if a piece develops in a way that's both slightly novel and still
in line with our brain's prediction, we tend to like it a lot. And that, says Salimpoor, "is because
we we made a kind of intellectual conquest."
[...] People often put music on the list of the top five things that are most pleasurable for
them." says Salimpoor. You surely thought of none of this the first time you heard "Satisfaction
- nor would you have wanted to - but it helps explain why you've listened to it ever since
