Great stuff, here's more: 

Part One: Somewhere in the Silence We begin our incomplete history of music at the very beginning of everything, The Big Bang, where conditions come into being so that sound can exist in the first place. We explore the difference between music and sound and debate whether music is uniquely human or do birds and whales just sing for fun. For The Record: An Incomplete History of Music is an epic nine part docuseries presented by Charlotte Ritchie that takes viewers on a journey through the entire history of music. From The Big Bang to AI and everything in between.

What is it, how does it work and why does it matter. From the multi award winning director Trent Burton and The Cosmic Shambles Network. Explore more on this and other episodes with bonus features, playlists, reading lists, quizzes and more at https://cosmicshambles.com/fortherecord
