Julian Treasure speaks about the 4 ways sound affects us

This is extremely interesting. Julian Treasure, a designer of soundscapes, gives a five minute talk about the four ways sound affects us: physiologically, psychologically, cognitively and behaviourally. He uses sounds throughout his talk to prove his point. He also states, "Music is the most profound sound there is," which I completely agree with and basically said so in my previous post entitled The Mystery of Music.

Also, listen carefully for a shocking fact about noisy open-plan offices.

This is wild. I knew it all the time. Working in open cubicles does not make for increased productivity. In fact quite the opposite is true.
