Episode notes

Ellen began reading on her own in all those various fields, and got grants to keep reading. She learned about the work of psychiatrist daniel stern he wrote about how mothers and infants form a relationship from birth. It was as if the musicians were the mother and she was the baby, with her emotions being altered in response to the sounds and movements happening in front of her.

We hear a lot about “vibe” these days: Vibe check, a shift in the vibe, catching a vibe, don't kill the vibe. With the help of scholars and researchers Ellen Dissanayake, Connie Bainbridge, and Maria Witek we’ll define this feeling by drawing a fun, evolutionary line from the sweet sounds of baby talk and lullabies, all the way to adults vibing to the music they love. To put our findings to the test, musicians Phil Cook & Ally J help Saleem write a new lullaby, and DJ Zephyr Ann & DJ Rang demonstrate the power of experiencing “distributed emotion” through music.
