"All audible musical sound is given us for the sake of harmony, which has motions akin to the orbits in our soul, and which, as anyone who makes intelligent use of the arts knows, is not to be used, as is commonly thought, to give irrational pleasure, but as a heaven-sent ally in reducing to order and harmony any disharmony in the revolutions within us."
-Plato

This video had me in tearing up, especially after hearing how Clive felt upon seeing his wife and the subsequent feelings after she leaves. It's such a deeply awesome video. That had me thinking about how lost I would be without music. Then between Jake's video with Neil deGrasse Tyson and this video. I started thinking about moments in my life with listening to certain artist or bands, how things would've changed to now. I had tears rolling down my face by the time Kevin mentioned the painting of "Hope" cause it's so eerily perfect and tragic. And with my life, hope has often been the only thing to cling to. LOVE. THIS. VIDEO!

Is mayonnaise an instrument?

@Tyron95 5 лет назад

No Dan, mayonnaise is not an instrument...

@ZedJay23 5 лет назад

Dan The Trombone Man You can make music with it, people make music with many things not traditionally considered instruments. Look at the didgeridoo, it is believed that the first didgeridoos were discovered when someone blew into a eucalyptus tree branch that had been hollowed out by termites. Why would you blow into a termite infested branch? It makes a weird sound! So why not use mayonnaise as an instrument, it’s not a traditional instrument but that shouldn’t matter.

@Bebo18 7 лет назад

The painting that you showed at the end that represents hope gave me goosebumps and I got teary-eyed, I have no idea why. I've never felt anything looking at "art".

@XxBeastWTFxX 7 лет назад

Bebo18 thats probably because people dont really explain a painting to you when you see it, they just leave it for interpretation. and also because of the emotional background music

@XxBeastWTFxX 7 лет назад

Bebo18 I didn't get goosebumps or get teary-eyed but I know exactly what you mean, I feel it more in music than aesthetics because I'm a musician, but I have felt moments like that with visual art :)

@jeromerox9999 7 лет назад

Probably had something to do with the music that was in the background

@Bebo18 7 лет назад

@zanthor5422 7 лет назад

It would be pretty simple to do, although a bit difficult because it doesn't have a low tone to it like the AC did. I mean, yeah, you could pitch-shift isolated notes down, but still.

@tennicktenstyl 7 лет назад

Zanthor slow it down, put it under load, record only the whine of switching circuit and sample it, drill something, break it, possibilities are endless

@lorenzoeldude 6 лет назад

Couldn't you just microsample a single wavelength of a part that comes close to being a sine wave? Because if you have a sine wave you can create square waves with distortion and the possibilities are endless again.

Why do we feel emotions when we hear music?

@rafaelcordero6652 7 лет назад

Aldo In the beginning of the video. He states that we process sounds as music in the first stages of our life. My guess is music is the Language that is tied to the psyche of life. So when we hear it, it literally speaks to us directly; not even figuratively

@KnowArt 7 лет назад

Hmm, that music tells a story with emotions... But... how does it do it? Why don't we feel such emotions when we hear a cordless drill? which is also sound.

@rafaelcordero6652 7 лет назад

Aldo Great Nuanced question Brother, I really don't know. It's so baffling

@carpo719 7 лет назад

It's often our association with the tones or music. Songs that bring us to nostalgia.

@carpo719 7 лет назад

I can hear certain types of music that move me and others that don't at all. I think it's truly has to do with the Nostalgia of our past and how we connect it. Especially if we hear a song that we may have heard while we were growing up perhaps our parents played it on the radio. But I have studied this for a while in my own life and found that in certain states of mind a person can listen to a song and build a strong connection to it only hearing it once. It often has to do with Neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin, as well as oxytocin such as in mothers and children. Fathers of course. Our minds build emotional connections to the sounds we hear because that is how we connect to the world around us not to mention protecting ourselves from danger.

Kevin. You blew my mind with this one. Such a sad story. I weeped like a child how lost his mom in a crowd.

Oh man this left me in tears, I'm getting soft in my old age. My Grandfather always said "You're never alone with music", if I can hope to be half as wise as he was then I know I'm doing something right.

Best of the VSauces by far! You’re so entertaining. If only my school teachers could teach like this.

As a musician, I must say this video depicts an incredibly accurate definition of what music truly is: hope, a companion. Wonderful video, glad to see music is still considered a fundamental part of life.

5:38 for those wondering about that song, it is called "Shona" by "Jake Chudnow"

We need more dialog between STEM and the humanities. They're often unfairly pitted against each other. We're not enemies; we depend on each other. The artist for the means of his practice and the scientist for meaning itself

This is incredibly interesting, thank you very much Kevin, I felt a nice buzz for a couples of minutes.

@BULLTRONHERO 7 лет назад

Wow, this was fascinating. Up until the end, when it became more emotional. Thanks Kevin, I needed that right now. Thought I had become more alone than ever until I heard you say that.

@saraoshin1162 7 лет назад

You see I love music so very much and near the end when you started to talk about how music helped him and that as long as we can hear music we're not alone, I started crying. I dont even know why but thank you.

I don't know what happened, but that video just outshone everything I've seen recently! What perfect thoughts to convey.

I was emotionally moved by this video. My heart is so heavy for those that are deaf, particularly over the fact that some may never get to hear the beauty that is music. In music, we are engaging the hemisphere of logic and the hemisphere for compassion... all at the same time. It is now ever more clear that we need music. All of us.

"Music is measured in Biebs"

@CloisteredExplorer 7 лет назад

Fred Jackson thank you for mentioning that. this video clearly forgot to mention that.

@william41017 7 лет назад

Fred Jackson what you mean by measured? Seriously

@jamesrogers9887 7 лет назад

It 's a fair question. Basically, when one listens to music of a low quality, Bieb receptors in the brain release hormones throughout the body as a response to encourage the listener to move away from the source. It's like a sense of smell. When something's bad, you move away.

Fred Jackson Hey Jsauce, I'm Jack.

@raymond6845 7 лет назад

If a song has more Biebs than can be harmlessly processed, it can result in the urge to drink bleach, the urge to listen to heavy metal, or even the urge to listen to heavy metal while drinking bleach.
