"David Byrne: How architecture helped music evolve"

The video explain us that music is a mode of communication.

There is an analogy that he was drawing between the

structural context of the communication. Bird songs in one

set of instances, human songs in another. There have been

many studies and treatises about the effects of architecture

on communication. This presentation is offering ideas from

that millieu. Language is not the only thing that can be

communication. The brain can interpret a whole range of

sounds and assign or infer meaning for them in many

contexts.

I think the conclusion should be music genre and type is

born inside a venue and venues are suited to fit an already

born style of music. For example, acoustically speaking only

- The organ was born in a church as it was an instrument

that relied on high reverberation times - churches then

continued to be built to suit organs.
