Scientists claim that birds’ and animals’ brains cannot discern complex intellectual objects such as music.
‘ ‘ ‘ , That for them, human music is like white noise, similar to the sound of rain, waves or rustling leaves for us. That they can’t hear anything interesting in it, the same way we can’t understand what birds say to each other, all their adventures and other information they share so vividly. , ////7 O>’ O>’ O<~ <Ö:::::::::=)’ This may very well be so - if during early development birds’ brains are not exposed to music and don’t learn to grasp it, they probably won’t be able to do it later. Much like a human child who, growing up in the wild without hearing any human language, wouldn’t be able to learn to speak as an adult, even when exposed to human speech. , ‘ ‘ “ ‘(o. 0060000909~.9-8.989 But it seems to us that birds’ brains can be trained to hear music; they can discern very complex intellectual and emotional objects if they’ve been exposed to them from an early age - for example if the birds have grown up in musicians’ homes. ‘, ‘ They become thoroughly unique experts on music, with their own completely unique taste, because their learning and teaching ability in the realm of sonic arts is great. If only someone saw it and knew how to use it. (i!iiii!!!!!i!¡¡¡ ‘ ‘“ “ `` , We’ve been lucky that we’ve come across two of such unique birds, who understand what’s there in the music they hear and what’s not in many respects better than humans. As choosing the right tracks for the album was much easier for them than it was for us, we gladly allowed Kakaduu to produce the record. Their enthusiastic chirping made it clear which pieces they preferred most. The album got put together quickly and insightfully and is dedicated to improving communication between birds and humans. , , O< ’ “<O Õ>’ О<‘ ‘ [] ф O>’ , « Ьªº–ºª Ö<’ “ This is a story about how a bird taught us to listen, see, and think, too. About something important and beautiful.
