We want to be connected.
In order to have a connection, we need a medium through which the connection flows. It’s no different than electricity needing metal in order to conduct.
Music is a medium. I am a freak about having music playing in the background at home, especially during hectic times of day. I used to believe that music just distracted the part of our brain that instigated tension but I am convinced that the music is just acting as the medium for us to share space & connect.
It’s a sensory stimulus that reminds us we are in the same space together and conducts a connection between us. Tonight when you get home, put on some music instead of mindless television or silence and see if you notice this effect.
