Unit 5 Overview: The Neuroaesthetics of Music
摘要
The human behavior of listening to and playing music has existed since prehistoric times. Music is often valued for the emotions it generates, and listening to music can boost mood and increase well-being. In this chapter, we dive into the “neuroaesthetics of music” in a deeper sense and explore why music is so appealing to us (aesthetically speaking) and what is happening in the neuronal levels of our brain when we listen to music.
