It keeps traveling. If you splash some water, where does the wave go? Same question - it terms into something you can no longer see or hear... It never goes away. It becomes part of the world, forever
Music is what you hear - but it was only ever sound waves
I imagine a physicist would invoke entropy to describe the diffusion of pressure waves and vibration into other forms of energy. Neuroscience might explain the propagation of signals from the cochlea into the brain. A psychologist could hypothesise on the influence of music on our mood and ideas. A philosopher might talk about the influence of music on the way we build our society and how that feeds back into our music. In this way, the music never stops, it continues on as echos rippling through through the universe.
I think this is my favorite comment I've read on Lemmy so far.
The truth in simple. I was annoyed to learn that there aren't any crawlies that go back up your throath if you swallow toothpaste.
It rolls up into the other side of the cassette. Just flip it over.
I thought the sentence was going to lead to something like "It rolls up into the other 8 inaccessibly tiny dimensions of our space."
I love your oldschool explanation though!
It turns out the solution to quantum string theory is a double-sided tape.
The best and the worst go straight to your brain and live there rent free.
Unfortunately, nobody has figured out how toget rid of the bad songs that drown out the good ones.
oh when will they ever learn? oh when will they... ever learn
After you listen to a song, the secret police from the RIAA come and lock it up in a small, dank cell given minimal sustenance, until the next time they can send it to some seedy hotel, suburban home, or automobile, to turn a trick and make them some more money, like some sort of whoo-re for the ears.
Where does the light go when you flip the switch?
Check your fridge.
As the waves from ocean, the music crashes on the beaches in your ears
And slowly erodes it.
Like sand through your beer glass, these are the waves of our lives
You absorb it into your soul and it changes you irreversibly forever.
It stays in our brain and we subconsciously put it into new music years later, thereby keeping the industry’s corporate lawyers in cocaine for future decades to come.
I was into neural net plagiarism before it was cool!
It goes into your memory. That's why you can remember a song that you heard before.
That’s why music works at all.
The Langoliers eat it.
"Ultimately it increases entropy... let me tell you about the heat death of the universe..."
"No, Mom! I'm still afraid of the False Vacuum monster laying underneath my ground state!"
If those were likely to hapoen during our lifetime then they would have already. Now prion disease...
Good night!
Scare me with prion disease?
So scientists are not entirely certain about the heat death of the universe. The heat death is the most reasonable prediction given what we know but there could be a force acting across the universe that may very slowly reverse the expansion of the universe that we have yet to discover and cause a big crunch over a ridiculously large amount of time. The fact is predictions that far in the future aren't really very useful.
Sounds move very very fast, faster than a runner or a car, so it goes very very far away.
But gets shower and more tired as he runs, until he dies?
They should show their kid this.
That should be required viewing. For everyone.
(Okay the water coming out the hose was freaky.)
Some of that sound rearranges some of your neurons so that you can listen to Never Gonna Give You Up whenever you read this
The music stays in your head until your forget it. Music only exists in your head
It stays playing in my head on repeat until a different piece of music replaces it.
It dissipates into the air like butterflies, or a cloud of dust.
It gets stuck in my head for 3 to 4 days until something newer comes along and pushes it out.
Everyone knows this duh!
Into your heart!
Groove is stored in the heart
