Neuroscience of Storytelling: Your Brain on Podcasts

Neuroscience of Storytelling: Your Brain on Podcasts | digital marketing strategy | Scoop.it
Different people’s brains absorb a compelling story in the roughly the same complicated pattern, using many parts of the brain, researchers found.
Pedro Vélez Pardo's curator insight, November 3, 2016 8:56 AM

Lots of storytelling goes on in Podcasts, and they could be considered a narrative form in and of themselves. So here's an article about what goes on in the brain when we hear podcasts.

 

What I really like is that the podcasts used in this research was storytelling from The Moth. Which are all stories.

 

What did they find? "And so it goes, for each word and concept as it is added to the narrative flow, as the brain adds and alters layers of networks: A living internal reality takes over the brain." Multiple areas of the brain are activated along with layers and layers of neural networks. This shows us again how storytelling is a whole-brain/whole body immersive experience.

 

So cool! Add this to your files about the brain on storytelling :)
