Yep, this is another blog about that episode, Musical Language, on Radio Lab the other night. (When I blogged on it before, I was in a wee bit of a hurry, and didn't really finish.) In the second segment, they talked at length--fascinatingly so, I thought--about the scientific explanation for how we hear. What happens, electrically speaking, in our ears and then in our brains when we hear something. When our babies hear our voices, we are literally touching the mechanisms of the ear with our sound waves.
Imagine when we sing to them.
Anyway, ya gotta hear this show! http://www.wnyc.org/shows/radiolab/episodes/2006/04/21
