Photography has evolved significantly since its origins in the early 19th century. Joseph Niépce produced the first photograph in 1822 using a glass plate and a light-sensitive solution. In the 1830s, Louis Daguerre improved upon this process, creating clearer images using silver-coated copper plates known as daguerreotypes. Around the same time, William Henry Fox Talbot invented the negative-positive paper process called a calotype. Throughout the 1800s, processes like the wet collodion and gelatin dry plates made photography more accessible, leading to innovations like the Kodak camera in 1888. These developments marked photography's transition to a popular artistic medium and hobby.

The document is a research paper that examines the relationship between music and the brain. It discusses how music affects brain development and function, stimulating areas related to memory, emotion, cognition and more. Music can impact other organs and aspects of the body as well, such as heart rate. The paper also explores how music is used in therapies for conditions like Parkinson's and speech impediments. While the effects of music are complex, research increasingly shows it can enhance brain activity and inspire creativity and problem solving.
Music has numerous positive impacts on mental and physical health according to the document. It can improve mood, make exercise more enjoyable, and lower stress levels by reducing heart rate, blood pressure, and stress hormones. Music may also help with aging by improving memory and reducing loneliness. It can reduce pain levels both for acute issues like recovery from surgery and chronic pain. Music therapy in particular pairs music with therapeutic goals to address needs.
1. Listening to music activates different regions of the brain involved in hearing, movement, attention, language, emotion, and memory. It engages multiple parts of the brain helping them work together.
2. Functional MRI shows that familiar music lights up various areas of the brain including the temporal lobe, cerebellum, amygdala, and hippocampus.
3. New research has revealed how different musical features activate emotional, motor, and creative areas of the brain. Music stimulates the brain in ways that can benefit healthy aging.
Music therapy uses music to accomplish therapeutic goals. It works through physiological responses to music in the brain and body. The brain is wired to respond to music from a very early age. Music taps into emotions, memory, attention, learning, social bonding and other cognitive processes. It is a predictable, structured experience that people generally enjoy. An fMRI study found that dynamic, expressive musical performances activated brain areas related to emotion, reward and motor synchronization more than mechanical performances. The insular cortex is involved in many functions like interoception, emotion processing, and homeostasis regulation.
Music has both positive and negative effects on people's mental and physical health. While some music promotes negative topics like drugs and sex, music therapy has been shown to help manage pain, reduce stress and anxiety, boost mood, and aid physical healing. Studies also show music can improve cognitive abilities and athletic performance when listening to enjoyable music. However, very loud or repetitive music may cause harm by inducing seizures or tinnitus. Overall, music has significant impacts and benefits for people when used constructively.
This document discusses the beneficial effects of music on human health and brain function. It outlines how music can decrease risks of heart attack and stroke by lowering blood pressure and altering heart rate.

Overall, the document shows that music has powerful positive impacts on both physical and mental health.
Music has many positive effects on our emotional state, brain function, and development. It can evoke powerful emotions, regulate mood, and enhance memory. In children, music stimulates creativity, concentration, language development, and motor skills. It also benefits mood, stress reduction, memory, and sleep quality in adults when listened to before bed. Studies show music activates reward centers in the brain and can be used in therapies for pain, sleep disorders, and memory issues like Alzheimer's. Music also has a social impact through its ability to trigger strong memories of adolescence.
Effects and Corporal Responses to Music Exposure and their Possible Use in Me...CarlosJCabello
My secondary-literature based thesis regarding the positive effects that music exposure has in our bodies, and how it can be applied into new medical therapies and techniques.
Music has many benefits for human health, intelligence, and emotions. It reflects the conditions of societies over time and facilitates communication beyond words. Music positively affects people by lowering stress hormones, boosting mood, and motivating through hard times. It also develops brain function related to language, reasoning, creativity, and multitasking. Regularly listening to music can improve both physical and mental health by reducing risks of disease, strengthening the immune system, and lowering blood pressure and anxiety. Overall, music enhances quality of life and is good for physical and cognitive development.
This document discusses how music therapy can benefit various medical conditions by activating and changing the brain. It explains that music activates areas of the brain involved in other functions like language, memory, and motor control. Studies have shown that melodic intonation therapy can help stroke victims regain speech by tapping the undamaged right side of the brain. The therapy also improves mood and motivation, allowing faster recovery. Music therapy is effective for psychiatric issues, developmental problems, and movement disorders like Parkinson's disease by using rhythm to improve coordination. It can also help prevent memory decline in Alzheimer's patients.
The music effects on the human brain by francheska camiloFrancheska Camilo
The document discusses the effects of music on the human brain. It states that the brain is divided into two hemispheres, with the left hemisphere responsible for language processing and the right hemisphere for music perception and processing. It also notes that music stimulates brain patterns in children, strengthening neurons and circuits used for mathematics. The document discusses how musical language exposure during infancy promotes greater learning. It provides examples of how music can be used therapeutically to stimulate memory, concentration, and mental and physical performance.
Géneros musicales y sus efectos en el cerebroJuris Rivera
The document discusses how different musical genres can influence the brain and behavior. It presents the hypothesis that musical genres impact people's brains and behavior, shaping their lives. Several musical genres are then analyzed for their specific effects, such as classical music increasing blood flow and dopamine in the brain, while hard rock and reggaeton are said to potentially damage neurons and cells. The conclusion is that music does influence people's feelings and behaviors physically based on its role throughout history in rituals and cultural expression.
Listening to music provides therapeutic benefits such as reducing stress and strengthening brain connections. It can also enhance learning and memory through the "Mozart Effect." Creating music activates similar areas of the brain as mathematics and can benefit reading skills. Music and movement are neurologically linked, and listening to music can make exercise easier by influencing emotions. Research shows that music is found in all human cultures and many believe humans have a biological predisposition for music. Music neuroscience is a growing interdisciplinary field exploring how music impacts the brain. Music therapy uses music to address physical, emotional, cognitive and social needs, and has been practiced since ancient times.
Music is ubiquitous in our lives and can impact us both physically and emotionally. Studies have shown that listening to relaxing music can reduce pain for those with fibromyalgia and increase functional mobility. Neuroscientists have discovered that music activates the brain's reward center and can make us feel good by heightening positive emotions. While some research has linked certain genres of rap music to increased aggression and crime, other studies note that factors like poverty, racism, and lack of opportunities also contribute to rising crime rates. The effects of music are complex and depend highly on the individual.
Due to the lack of proper time management and works that B.Ed students face it is necessary to reduce their stress and increase the concentration among them which will help them to be more productive, music plays a major role in stress release.
This document is an undergraduate thesis about how music can positively influence people throughout different stages of life. It discusses preliminary research showing some benefits of prenatal music exposure, such as infants recognizing music they heard in the womb. Music is presented as an important developmental tool for infants that can aid language, cognitive, and social skills. The document then discusses how musical tastes develop from childhood to young adulthood based on both nature and nurture. Finally, it explores how music brings comfort and reduces anxiety for elderly nursing home patients. The goal of the thesis is to analyze the role of music at different life stages and argue it should be more widely utilized in developmental and rehabilitation contexts.
Wynton Marsalis and others define music as organized sound in time that involves movement. Music has been part of human culture for over 35,000 years. Early exposure to music helps develop brain areas involved in language and reasoning in children. Learning music as a child provides benefits such as academic success, cultural understanding, teamwork skills, and ability to manage stress. Music activates networks in the brain related to rhythm and movement. It can also help treat neurological conditions and cognitive decline in older adults. Learning a musical instrument is possible at any age.

physical responses in many people simultaneously. Also music has the power to strengthen or
weaken emotions from events like a funeral. Classical Music causes the heart beat and pulse rate
to relax to the beat of the music. The mind is able to concentrate better, as the body becomes
more relaxed and alert. By decreasing the blood pressure this enhances the ability to learn.
Music affects the brain by influencing behavior, being therapeutic, and helps the mind process
information more efficiently.
Science has also confirmed that humans have responded to music from birth. Their
studies have also shown that music may even help patients heal from disease or stroke. Elena
Mannes, a lead scientist in brain research, has tracked the human relationship with music
throughout a person’s lifetime. She believes that one day music will play a major role in how
people deal with their health. Some of her studies have shown that infants prefer “consonant
intervals, the smooth-sounding ones that sound nice to our Western ears in a chord, as opposed to
2. Nay 2
a jarring combination of notes” (Mannes.) Mannes even went far enough to say that the cries of
babies just a few weeks old were discovered to have some intervals common to western music.
She also states that scientists believe music stimulates more parts of the brain than any other
human function. With this knowledge, she sees that music has so much potential when it comes
to affecting the brain and how it works.One of the main areas of the brain music can have a real
impact on is with neurological deficits. For example, if a patient who just had a stroke occur and
lost verbal functions, those functions can be stimulated by music. This is known as melodic
intonation therapy and it can help patients regain their speech.
The human brain is split into two parts, the left and right hemisphere. The right
hemisphere has been traditionally thought of to be the “seat of music appreciation.” However,
the right side has not been proven for that role in any way; people with brain damage to the left
and right side still appreciate music in the same way. “Studies of musical understanding in
people who have damage to either hemisphere, as well as brain scans of people taken while
listening to tunes, reveal that music perception emerges from the interplay of activity in both
sides of the brain” (Joelving). One important thing to realize is just how the brain breaks down
and interprets music. To interpret music all sounds go into the ears, then travel to the auditory
cortex, which are assemblages of cells just above both ears. This cortex is crucial for getting
pitch, and other types of melodies like harmony, timbre, and rhythm. On the left side of the
brain, people can process quick changes in frequency and intensity. Both hemispheres of the
brain are needed for total perception of rhythm. A reason for this is because without both sides of
the brain it is impossible to tell the difference between three-quarter and four-quarter time. The
front of thebrain is where memories are stored, which also plays part in rhythm and melody
3. Nay 3
perception. Research has also found that activities in the brain control movement even when
people just listen to music without moving any parts of their bodies.
Music has an almighty power to affect man’s emotions and behavior. Many different
parts of the brain and body are stimulated by the sound of music. “Psychological study of music
is based on this reason. Studies have found that music can reduce stress, aid relaxation, alleviate
depression, and help store and recall information among other functions” (Kirkweg). A vital
way music reduces stress in the body is by lowering the total amount of the hormone cortisone.
Music can be a great stress reliever for everyday life. The way this is being used today is with
music therapy. Music therapy is musical activities for the reason of changing behaviors and
improving everyday life. Another way this breakthrough therapy is used today is by helping
people with memory problems. With our tremendous advances in realizing how the mind
processes information; it is easy to see how this is possible. The brain is made up of a very
intricate system of neural networks that sends information from one part of the brain to another.
Through studying neural networks it has been discovered that there are many factors that seem to
affect this. These factors are attention, stress, emotion, music, and aging. The music factor
improves the efficiently of how the brain transfers information; therefore, improving memory for
the patients.
Many scientific experiments and projects have been completed to discover the extent of
the power of music. Until 1970, research done on music had to do with studying effects that
relates to the beat of the music. It was found that slow-paced music could slow the heartbeat and
the breathing rate as well as decrease blood pressure. Faster music was found to speed up these
same measurements in the body. The key component of music that makes it positive to the brain
is the order in which it is made. “The order of the music from the baroque and classical periods
4. Nay 4
causes the brain to respond in special ways. This order includes repetition and changes, certain
patterns of rhythm, and pitch and mood contrasts” (O’Donnel). When the brain translates the
order of music it is a lot like doing a math problem in school. Once realized by the brain, the
mind starts performing more efficiently while listening to this ordered music. An example of the
brain figuring out the order in music is when the brain looks at different pieces of information
and decides if they are different or the same.
By studying the biology of music, people could use music in areas where it produces vital
benefits like the medical field. Normally after heart bypass surgery, the recipients often
experience irregular changes in blood pressure. These changes are always treated with different
drugs. Recently though, studies have started to show that in intensive care units where
background music is played, the patients need lower amounts of the drugs compared to patients
with no music. It does not just stop there; hospitals also play background music in intensive care
units for premature babies. “Researchers have found that such music, as well as a nurse's or
mother's humming, helps babies to gain weight faster and to leave the unit earlier than babies
who don't hear these sounds” (Cromie). For the elderly, music is being used to calm
Alzheimer’s patients. During their mealtimes in the hospitals, these people are difficult to
organize. By being difficult to organize fights occur, but with the right type of music the
confusion and disagreements are reduced. These are just a few of many practical reasons why
music has such a strong effect on the mind.
“The pleasing effect of melodies and harmonies are mediated by personal as well as
cultural preference. It has been theorized that individuals are greatly influenced by the tones
found in their native language which in turn influence their native music” (Sancar). Once
realizing this, it easy to imply that individuals born into diverse cultures have brains which are
5. Nay 5
formed to respond to different types of melodies. The brain reacts strongest to the music he was
culturally raised with. For music to cause an emotional response, the areas used in deciphering,
learning, and remembering music must be linked to the areas producing an emotional response.
In short terms this means to get an emotional response from a song, the brain needs to decipher
and learn it to make a connection to its emotions. The main reason for people liking a certain
type of music all depends on which type produces the most endorphins. Also liking certain types
of music all depends on the mood that a person is currently in. Music has also been proven to
activate areas of the limbic system which are vital in producing pleasurable effects. It is the
limbic that releases endorphins to the brain. Having this information, there are more possibilities
of using music therapy like for people who have depression in their lives.
It is quite easy to see exactly how strong the power of music is and will become in the
future. There have been many studies that have proven this. For example, a study shows that
students who study music in high school make better grades then those who do not. The
reasoning for this is that listening to music makes you think more efficiently and improves your
memory. Society has relied on music so greatly that without music life would change as we
know it today. Every culture that has been created throughout history has some form of music,
showing that music is fundamental to life. Even though people think of music as just
entertainment it is really goes much deeper. Music is now being used as therapy which is
radicalizing the way people think of sound. People can lower their blood pressure, find
happiness through depression, and recover through major surgery all by the power of music.
