Music isn't just something we create-it's something that creates us back. What if every song you've ever loved was shaped not primarily by artistic vision, but by the physical spaces, technologies, and cultural contexts where it emerged? The spaces where Bach composed his intricate fugues, the recording technologies that birthed Sinatra's intimate crooning style, the car sound systems that influence today's bass-heavy hip-hop-these environments don't just host music; they fundamentally determine what music becomes. This perspective transforms our understanding from seeing music as pure artistic expression to recognizing it as a sophisticated form of adaptation, evolving to fit its acoustic and cultural niches just as birds adapt their songs to different environments. When we truly understand this relationship, we begin to see music not as something fixed and unchanging, but as a living conversation between creators and their worlds.
