Report on Lost and Sound

Saw this very interesting and informative documentary at the Hackney Picture House last Sunday.

The film followed three people on their hearing journey from losing hearing in one ear which made music sound flat to learning music from scratch through an implant.

Scientists showed that different parts of the brain are activated when it experiences music such as feeling and emotion! Now I know why some people can be moved when listening to music.

My view after watching the documentary is that music forms a big part of people's lives anyone can experience music as the brain had many different strategies to deal with this.

The film will be broadcast on tv and released onto DVD
