Publisher's Synopsis
THE SOUND CODE: Unlocking the Psychology of Sound, Music and Silence
How Your Ears Secretly Run Your Life (And What to Do About It)
Sound isn't just background - it's the invisible force shaping your emotions, attention, energy, and even your sense of time. From that oddly satisfying zipper noise to the emotional chaos triggered by a single notification "ding," sound is everywhere... and it knows exactly what it's doing.
In THE SOUND CODE, you'll dive into the strange, delightful, and sometimes ridiculous ways sound affects your everyday life - often without you realizing. You'll meet the psychological quirks of your listening brain, explore why silence is so rare (and powerful), and finally understand why your neighbor's vacuum feels like a personal attack.
This is not a science textbook (no lab coat required), but a witty, warm exploration of the soundtrack you live in - and how to finally hear it differently.
If your ears have ever been offended by a microwave, comforted by a rainstorm, or tricked into buying expensive cheese because of jazz in the grocery store... this book is already about you.
