A research found that people shown silent videos of piano competitions could pick out the winners more often than those who could also hear the music. It underlines the importance of our sense of vision, say scientists. Their study concludes that the best predictor of a winner’s musical performance was the visible passion they displayed, followed closely by their uniqueness and creativity.
Chia-Jung Tsay, from University College London, UK, is the study’s author and herself a concert pianist. She was interested in how music was judged and found that even professional musicians were unaware of how much they were using visual information over sound. “For the last two decades, I’ve taken part in various competitions. Through this experience, I found that depending on what type of evaluations were used, the results might vary widely. This led me to wonder about how much visual information really affects these important decisions,” she explained.
More than 1,000 participants in the study were given samples of either audio, silent video or video with sound, and asked to rate the top three finalists from 10 international classical music competitions. The actual competition winners were only correctly identified by those who were randomly assigned(分配) the silent videos.
Dr Tasy said the findings were quite surprising, especially because both trained musicians and those without training had stated that sound was most important for their evaluation. “Regardless of levels of expertise, we still seem to be led primarily by visual information, even in this field of music,” she said. “Classical music training is often focused on improving the quality of the sound, but this research is about getting to the bottom of what is really being evaluated at the highest levels of competitive performance. She added, “We must be more mindful of our inclination(倾向) to depend on visual information at the expense of the content that we actually value as more relevant to our decisions.”

What makes a good news photograph?
As you’re thinking about taking news photographs, think about what makes up a good picture．
Most importantly, it will be of interest to a wide audience．It may describe an event in the news: a train crash, a clash in the streets, crazily happy fans the moment the big game is won．
Uniqueness is eye-catching．A picture that no one else took has much more news value than one taken alongside a rank of other photographers．A good news picture will tell a story without words．It will have context by showing the surrounding scene, or show the emotion on the faces of the people in the picture．
Timeliness is critical．Whatever the content, a news picture can lose its value in a short space of time．News events move quickly, and the shot of a mini tornado you took last week may have been destined for the front page when you took it, but of no interest to a newspaper or a website a week later．
Control is important．Please remember, absolutely no photo is worth bothering others, putting yourself or others in danger, or getting in trouble with the law．
We’re looking forward to seeing your pictures．
