Reading a professors thesis is like opening a new chapter to a book that has no words. Or reading Italian to a bunch of french people, where its twice as hard to understand what is even trying to be said. The Hyper and Deep Attention article is something i believe to have many fine lines. Some would say invisible or transparent. The question is, does having music in the background of your studying or work process make it hyper attention or deep attention. Studies at UNCC in Charlotte say that the right kind of music can help you relax your mind which enables you to concentrate better. The most cited study is the “Mozart Effect” a set of research results that indicate that listening to Mozart’s music may induce a short-term improvement on the performance of certain kinds of mental tasks known as “spatial-temporal reasoning” which is the ability to think out long-term, more abstract solutions to logical problems that arise. But does this music make these University of California professors say that music and study equals deep or hyper attention. Since some would say that the individual is thinking about both things that are going on (reading and listening), but are still able to block out everything else out and increase information absorption and understanding. So where is the line drawn?
