Study: Music Stimulates the Brain
By PAUL RECER, AP Science Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) - In a study that may explain why some people have a
powerful emotional response to music, researchers have found that melodies
can stimulate the same parts of the brain as food and sex.

``People now are using music to help them deal with sadness and fear,'' said
Dr. Anne Blood, a researcher at Massachusetts General Hospital in
Charlestown, Mass. ``We are showing in our study that music is triggering
systems in the brain that makes them feel happy.''

Blood and her co-author, Robert Zatorre of McGill University in Montreal,
used positron emission tomography, or PET scans, to find areas of the brain
that are stimulated by music found so moving by the test subjects that it
``sent shivers down the spine.''

The researchers found that many of the brain structures activated by the
euphoria of food or sex also are turned on by music. A report on the study
appears Tuesday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

``In the reward and emotion systems of the brain, there are certain
structures that are active,'' Blood said. This activity clearly shows up
when patients are given PET scans at the same time they are experiencing the
stimuli that produce euphoria.

Previous studies have linked the midbrain, the ventral striatum and parts of
the cortex to sex and food. The new study, Blood said, clearly shows a
similar response in these areas to musical sounds that the test subjects had
preselected as beautiful enough to give them ``chills.'' There was no such
response, however, to other types of sound.

Dr. Ira Glick, professor of psychiatry, Stanford University School of
Medicine, said music ``is one way to cope'' in periods of stress, and it is
known that ``behind every emotion and every piece of behavior there is a
change in a molecule.

``With this new technology, the PET, for the first time we can see it,'' he
said. ``It is exciting to see the biology unfold before our eyes as we
explore the human mind.''

In the study, Blood and Zatorre asked 10 musicians, five men and five women,
to pick out music whose beauty caused them to have ``chills.''

The subjects were then given PET scans as they listened to four types of
audio stimuli - the selected music, other music, general noise or silence.
Each sequence was repeated three times in random order.

Blood said when the subjects heard the music that gave them ``chills,'' then
the PET scans detected activity in the portions of the brain that are also
stimulated by food and sex.

Although the tested subjects were all musicians, Blood said that ``80
percent of people experience these chills'' from some types of music.

``The experience of chills is a very common phenomenon, and it is highly
likely that the same (brain) structures would be active in other people,''
she said.

Blood said the reaction to music is highly individualized and culturally
based. She said this suggests that some people may react to rock 'n' roll in
the same way that others are affected by Beethoven.

``Everyone has their own preferences'' in what evokes these chills, said the
researcher. ``The brain activity is related to the chills and not to the
type of music.''

The study suggests, Blood said, that ``we are born with the ability to
appreciate a lot of different types of music. It is what we are exposed to
that ends up having meaning for us.''

Just why humans developed such a biologically based appreciation of music is
not clear.

The appreciation of food and the drive for sex evolved to help the survival
of the species, but ``music did not develop strictly for survival
purposes,'' she said.

``Because it activates the parts the brain that makes us happy suggests that
music benefits our physical and mental well-being,'' Blood said.

Hi y'all,

As usual, this program was produced several weeks prior to its
scheduled airing on Antenna, so there's no conscious response to
recent world events (though a few selections have a serendipitous
relevance to the politics and/or crises of the moment).

This week on Mappings <http://www.antennaradio.com/avant/mappings/>,
you'll hear music by Battuto, John Butcher & Derek Bailey, John
Butcher & Rhodri Davies, Axel Dorner/Fred Lonberg-Holm/Michael
Zerang, Double Double, Arnold Dreyblatt, Emergency Quartet, Mel
Graves, Caroline Kraabel, Helmut Lachenmann, Steuart Liebig, Evan
Parker/Barry Guy/Lawrence Casserley, Quatour Accorde, Rebecca
Saunders, Space Between, Philipp Wachsmann, and Julia Wolfe.

The show went online Monday evening around 10:00 PM (-0500 GMT) and
will remain online at the above URL for a week. Last week's program
(featuring works with literary texts including music by Robert
Ashley, Nicolas Collins, Dave Douglas, Shelley Hirsch, Randolph
Hostetler, Brenda Hutchinson, George E Lewis, Alvin Lucier, Ingram
Marshall, Matthias Pintscher, Mikel Rouse, Kaija Saariaho, Tibor
Szemz=F6 Saadet T=FCrk=F6z & Mark Vigil; AND texts by John Ashbery, Kamau
Brathwaite, Charles Bukowski, Angela Carter, Paul Celan, Constance
DeJong, Gunnar Ekel=F6f, Paul Eluard, B=E9la Hamvas, Nazim Hikmet, Naguib
Mahfouz, Steve McCaffery, Snee McCaig, & Quincy Troupe) is still
available in the Mappings archive
<http://www.antennaradio.com/avant/mappings/index1.htm >, where you
can also find play lists for the program since it began in March 1998.

Hope you tune in to the program.

Bests,

Herb

Subject: The Residents LIVE

Hi y'all.

Had the pleasure of seeing The Residents live for the first time last
Sunday.

I did expect a bit more of a "show" - but still I was happy I went to
the gig.

The current tour, still a few more dates in Europe, seems to be sort of
a Greatest Hits thing. They project stuff from their new DVD onto a
large screen and play the songs live to the video-clips.

In Zurich, however, they had a huge technical problem. After about 45 or
60 minutes, the DVD-beamer stopped functioning...

Still - if you like their music, catch them on this tour.

Subject: RE: Stockhausen

Hello Tom,

> I was wondering, do you have a link to the original Bild
> article.  I would
> like to know how they used Stockhausen's statements.

a search on http://www.bild.de yielded no result, although their archive
goes back to '96 or '97. Could be possible that said article was
published only in the print edition. It's interesting that Kathinka
Pasveer initially directed her response towards a specific newspaper
with an accordingly titled URL
(http://www.stockhausen.org/reply_to_bild.html), but Stockhausen changed
this for a second reply to
http://www.stockhausen.org/message_from_karlheinz.html, in whose text he
doesn't even mention "Bild" anymore, instead referring to "the
journalist". I'm sceptical about the alleged "twisting" of Stockhausen's
words by "Bild". Why would a tabloid, which is more or less
disinterested in the Arts, send a journalist to a press conference of
him? Neither respected "Sueddeutsche Zeitung" nor "Tageszeitung"
mentioned a special involvement of "Bild".
Here's an article by Swiss "Neue Zuercher Zeitung":
http://archiv.nzz.ch/books/nzzmonat/0/$7NRFB$T.html. It reports that the
statements concerning the WTC and Pentagon attacks were first made
public by *radio broadcaster NDR*. Thereafter "Zeit"-Foundation called a
crisis meeting with the participation of Culture Senator Christina
Weiss, followed by the cancellation of Stockhausen's four concerts.

Despite some vagueness, the "press history" of this whole affair hasn't
been an issue in the German language coverage I have read. With one
exception (http://www.heise.de/tp/deutsch/special/auf/9595/1.html), all
comments were indignant towards Stockhausen words.

Regards
Franz Fuchs

PS: I'm sending this to the whole Z-List. Maybe other members can
provide additional information.
