_“The brain does a really good job picking up on how likely it is to be shifting attention,” Sali said. “The brain gets ready to shift and it ends up in a cost in accuracy.”_
I’ve found this to be true for me.
Playing subtle music, whether that’d be ambient pieces or baroque polyphonic compositions, will distract me; forcing me to have to reread some passages as if I had skipped completely over them the first time.
Then again, having multiple news an police choppers hovering overhead, a plethora of emergency vehicles racing down the streets or just the everyday noises associated with living in a dense city - the music can make all that just recede into the background.
I find the hours of 4am - 8am to be the golden hours for reading and enjoying multiple cups of coffee…

An excerpt that is just one goodie from this piece…
_By 1973 the Strolling Bones, as NME had started to call them, were showing their age. Jagger and Richard both turned 30 that year – last orders for rock stars in that hope-I-die-beforeI-get-old era. Bill Wyman was 37, for chrissakes – nearly as old as Elvis. Keith – Keef – still sported a chipped front tooth and deathly white pallor, his matted black hair the result of his habit of not sleeping – ever; he bragged that his record was “nine days without a wink”._

Thank-you for posting as it is likely I would have missed it. A fun read and concept. I understand that links to articles behind a pay wall can be frustrating for some, I’d like to think many on the forum have a subscription the the NYT.
Quoting from the article:
_…listening bars (Kissa) as “the tip of the spear, of a broader movement of people paying more attention to audio.”_
