One of the problems we face is that as we live together in a crowded way, our communication system becomes more and more complicated.

The sounds we make to each other become more like noise, which is accidental or irrelevant. It is difficult for us to choose from these noises.

Choose a meaningful signal. Of course, one of the reasons is that we can't seem to limit our communication to those who carry information.

A sign of a problem. If there is any new technology to spread information, it seems that we will use it for a lot of small talk.

The reason why we are not overwhelmed by nonsense is only because we still have music.

Thankfully, the relatively new subject of Bioacoustics needs to study the sounds made by other animals.

Similar problems exist. No matter what kind of vocal devices they have, most animals make a lot of vague sounds.

Muttering to myself. It takes long-term patience and observation to eliminate those parts that lack syntax and meaning. keep

The unimportant social dialogue designed at the party is dominant, and naturally I don't like long silence.

However, there is always a constant music lurking under all other signals. Termites are dark and hairy in their nests.

In the echoing corridor, they hit the ground with their heads and rapped with each other. According to the description, this kind of sound exists in people.

Our ears sound like sand falling on paper, but recent spectral analysis of this sound recording shows that,

In this kind of beating, there is a high degree of organizational law. The tapping sound is regular, rhythmic and of different lengths.

The sentence appears, just like the clef in the timpani.

Some termites sometimes use the vibration of the upper jaw to make a loud click, which can be heard from 10 meters away.

It must be urgent to spend so much effort to make such a note, at least for the speaker.

To make such a loud noise, it must twist its body hard, so that the recoil will bounce it two or three centimeters into the air.

Trying to give this special sound a certain meaning is obviously risky, and the whole bio-acoustics collar

The domain name has such a problem. Imagine that a confused visitor from outer space is interested in human beings.

I heard the click of golf balls on the surface of the moon through the spectrograph and tried to interpret it as a warning.

Call (unlikely), courtship signal (not like that), or read as a declaration of territorial possession (possible).

Bats must make sounds almost continuously in order to detect all the objects around them with the help of sonar. They can

In order to accurately find small insects in flight and push them to their favorite targets as quickly as a guide device.

Using this superb system instead of eye scanning, they must live in a place that is often accompanied by industrial noise and machine noise.

In the ultrasonic world of bats. However, they also communicate with each other, click on each other and greet each other with high-profile greetings. Besides, someone

I also heard that when they stand upside down in the depths of the forest, they will make a strange, lonely and clear bell.

Love the sound.

Almost everything that animals can use to make sounds has been used. Prairie grouse, rabbits and mice use their claws.

Knocking sound; Woodpeckers and several other birds knock on their heads; Male wood-boring beetles tap with protrusions on their bellies.

On the ground, there is a quick click; There is a small beetle called Lepinotus inquilinus, which is less than two in length.

Well, you can still hear a faint click; Fish make sounds by tapping their teeth, blowing air or tapping with special muscles.

Inflatable airbag for tuning; Crustaceans and insects use the solid vibration of their heads and teeth to make sounds; Human skeleton

Moths make holes with kisses and play wind music.

Orangutans beat their chests and had some kind of dialogue. Animals with loose bones rattle their joints. Move like a rattlesnake.

Objects use external structures to make sounds. Turtles, alligators and crocodiles, even snakes, can emit all kinds of smells to some extent.

Laryngeal sound It is said that leeches beat the leaves rhythmically to attract the attention of other leeches, and other leeches beat them at the same time.

Answer. Even earthworms can produce a set of weak and regular staccato notes. Toads sing to each other, and friends respond.

Answer the chorus.

The content of transactional communication in bird songs has been analyzed so much that it seems that there are not many.

It's music time. But there is still music. In warning, screaming, courting, declaring territory, recruiting new friends and demanding solutions.

There are a lot of beautiful music appearing repeatedly behind the words, saying that these are transactional words within eight hours.

Words are hard to make sense. The thrush in my backyard sings a song as melodious as missing and running water, over and over again.

I have a strong feeling that it is just entertaining itself. Sometimes, it seems like a major living in an apartment.

Practice singing like a singer. It began to sing an urgent play until the middle part of the second bar was silent, as if there should be

There is a complex set of harmony. Start all over again, still not satisfied. Sometimes it's obvious to switch to another set of music,

It seems that several groups of variations are improvisational. This is a thoughtful and thought-provoking music. I can't believe it's just saying,

"Thrushcross is here."

Xiaoqu can sing euphemistic songs, which contain various themes and can be rearranged according to their own preferences; each

The notes of the theme constitute syntax, and various possible changes form a considerable program list. Wild larks in North America are highly skilled.

It uses 300 notes, arranges them into phrases in groups of three to six, and creates 50 types of songs. night

Warblers can sing twenty basic songs, but they can make countless changes by changing the internal structure and pause of phrases.

When birds hear other similar songs, they can input these fragments into their memories.

Humans usually show the need to create and appreciate music. I can't imagine, even in our oldest original

In the early days, when some talented painters painted in caves, no one nearby had the same creative ability.

Write a song. Singing, like talking, is the dominant aspect of human biological activities.

Other instrumental musicians, such as crickets or earthworms, may not sound like music when they play alone, but that is

Because we took it out of context. If we can hear them at the same time with a full set of orchestral instruments,

When huge choirs get together, we may hear counterpoint, the balance of tone and timbre, and

There are chords and various brightness. The recorded humpback whale songs are full of strength and affirmation, vague and suggestive, incomplete and possible.

Think of it as a part, as if it were an isolated part of an orchestra. If we have better hearing, we can hear.

See the high notes of seabirds, hear the rhythmic timpani of mollusks, and even hear the grass lingering in the sun.

The ethereal harmony of empty gnats and the synthesized sound will probably make us fly.

Of course, there are other ways to explain whale songs. Those songs may be about sailing or about zooplankton.

Source, or a simple and solid narrative and statement about territorial boundaries. But so far the evidence has not been obtained. have only

One day, it turned out that these long, winding and lasting tunes were repeated by different singers, and

They have their own decorations, just to convey the message that "whales are here" hundreds of miles below the sea.

General information. Otherwise, I can only believe that these songs are real music. Whales have been seen more than once.

During the intermission of singing, the fish jumped out of the water completely, and then carried the water and immersed in the waves hit by wide fins. also

Maybe they are happy that the song was so successful just now, or maybe they heard themselves after returning from sailing around the world.

To celebrate this song. Anyway, it was a celebration.

I think the alien guests who want to visit me will be equally puzzled when they hear my record being played for the first time. For him,

The 14 quartet may be releasing some kind of information, which means that Beethoven is here. After the passage of time,

Lost in the ocean current of human thought, a hundred years later, there is a long signal to respond to it, "Bartok!

Here it is. "

If, as I believe, the driving force of making a certain kind of music is the same as our other basic biological functions,

It is also our characteristics as creatures, so there must be some truth in it. Since there is no ready-made explanation at hand, I will

I can take the liberty of making one. That rhythmic voice may be the reappearance of something else-it is one of the oldest memories.

Memory is the score of a dance music, which records the transformation of chaotic inanimate substances into behaviors that violate probability and order.

The process of rational life forms. H.J. put forward his views and his fallacies in the language of thermodynamics.

It is said that when the energy flowing from the endless sun to the unsatisfied hole in outer space passes through the earth,

Mathematically speaking, it will inevitably make the matter organized into an increasingly orderly state. The resulting equilibrium behavior is

Atoms with chemical bonds continue to form more and more complex molecules, and there is a cycle of storing and releasing energy. also

Yang energy is in an unbalanced and stable state (assuming so), which will not only flow to the earth, but also be radiated by the earth.

Let's go Thermodynamically speaking, it is bound to rearrange the matter into a symmetrical form, thus violating the probability and resisting the increase of entropy.

Add, make it improve-so to speak-into a state of constant rearrangement and molecular modification. in this

In a system, the result will be an accidental orderly state, and it will always be on the verge of falling into chaos, just because

Because of the constant energy tide from the sun, this orderly state has not collapsed and continues to violate it.

Opportunity.

If sound is needed to express this process, it is like the Brandenburg Concerto.

H) arrangement. But I can't help wondering, the rhythm of insects, the length and ups and downs of birds, whales.

Song dynasty, the displacement vibration of millions of migratory locusts, the chest of orangutans, the head of termites, the hair of groupers.

Whether the rhythm of timpani reminds people of the same process. It's strange, "Grand Dean.

The musical term "semble" borrowed from thermodynamics through mathematics will become a measure in thermodynamics.

Terminology of model system. Borrow it again, add notes, and you can explain my thoughts.
