Written language, the hallmark of human civilization, didn't just suddenly appear one day. Thousands of years before the first fully developed writing systems, our ancestors scrawled geometric signs across the walls of the caves they sheltered in. Paleoanthropologist, rock art researcher and TED Senior Fellow Genevieve von Petzinger has studied and codified these ancient markings in caves across Europe. The uniformity of her findings suggest that graphic communication, and the ability to preserve and transmit messages beyond a single moment in time, may be much older than we think.

This article was pretty interesting it talked about the studies of the effect of music on stress levels in nurses. The study consisted of 54 nurses being assigned to a music/chair rest sequence or chair rest/music sequence during the period February to June 2006. Each intervention lasted for 30 minutes. Participants in the music condition listened to self-selected soothing music using headphones for 30 minutes.
I feel like this was a reliable source of information because it has the writer information and where the source came from This article had a major source of information

I think the effect music has on nurses is a very interesting and informative resource for any audio industry professional because of how knowledgeable this article is . Especially when the article mentions the effects that soothing music has on stress levels and on the heart rate. This was a great article overall !
