To some people music is another form of art But alot of people would argue that it is a torture. Some people can make many forms of art and music and can be a masterpiece. Also it is a torture to some people because they dont like how it sounds or they dont like the words on the song. Like provided in the article it shows the words that some singers said in there songs and thats why people think it can be torture.

Music is art to some. Others believe that it is torture. Music can be created under the art category or it can be very annoying to the point where it is considered torture. The beat and rythm of the piece of misic can affect the categorization of the song whether it is an art or torture. I personally believe that there are some songs that I would consider as art and there are others where I call torturous. This method used (torturous music) would really make a prisoner miserable. It would affect the prisoner negatively. I think it would be effective only if the guards are not next to prison cells. There is no need to torture guards for doing there job.

Music to us basically is just a form of recreation. We listen to it all day long during traffic, lunch breaks, roadtrips, even at home. Ironically, this form of entertainment turned out to be a very dangerous method of torture. It was used by american soldiers when interrogating with others. From my point of view I think that it is indeed an extremely dangerous weapon if used by those who want to torture someone.

I think this is art to some because they are psychotic. And whoever thinks this is a torture he is a human being. Other things are involved is that the man is telling a million word in a second that you would never understand what he is saying. I think this is a good method of interrogation because it would torture him.

Music is usually used to entertain people as an art of beauty. I never have thougt that could be once used as a torturous tool. I think that it is based on the mental state of the listener. It's never the same to listen to music during you usual lunch break and during an interrogation in a hot, dark room, with your heartbeat ar 1000 heart beat a second. I think it is awesome if it really does work.

Also it is a torture to some people because they dont like the words on the song also the sound. For example in the article it shows that the words that some singers says in there songs is not attractive to the people and thats why people think it can be torture.

Music is craftsmanship to some. Others accept that it is torment. Music can be made under the workmanship class or it can be exceptionally irritating to the point where it is considered torment. The beat and rythm of the bit of misic can influence the classification of the tune whether it is a workmanship or torment. I for one accept that there are a few tunes that I would consider as workmanship and there are others where I call agonizing. This system utilized (unbearable music) would truly make a detainee hopeless. It would influence the detainee adversely. I think it would be viable just if the watchmen are not beside jail cells. There is no compelling reason to torment protects for doing there occupation.

Music is craftsmanship to some. Others acknowledge that it is torment. Music can be made under the workmanship class or it can be particularly bothering to the point where it is considered torment. The beat and rythm of the bit of misic can impact the grouping of the tune whether it is a workmanship or torment. I most definitely acknowledge that there are a couple of tunes that I would consider as workmanship and there are others where I call anguishing. This framework used (intolerable music) would really make a prisoner sad. It would impact the prisoner antagonistically. I think it would be reasonable just if the guardians are not adjacent to penitentiary cells. There is no convincing motivation to torment secures for doing there occupation.

Some people would view music as an art piece but on the other hand people would view it as torture. It is based on how the person views the music based on its written words and the sound of it.

Music was and still is a form of art that became part of our everyday life. Music is so powerful because it is capable of shifting someone’s feelings and mood to become the happiest man alive. It’s so powerful because it also delivers a message to listeners in a pleasing way.
Unfortunately, some bad people understood the psychological effect and power of music into shifting someone’s feelings up and thought of reversing it. Yes, to use it for the exact opposite reason; torture. People’s feelings, especially in military where soldiers fly to far away countries, start to develop a “home sick” feeling. After that they engage in battles and wars. Which creates a feeling of fear, guilt, shock, loss, anger, sadness, and grief. After the war they develop a feeling of misery. These people who experienced such situations including soldiers will absolutely become sensitive that even a “barney” song could cause them torture.
Music as I explained is powerful. It’s more like the arrow that hits and goes through a man’s heart. To soldiers, when they listen to songs they relate to it whether because it’s a thing that they saw, did, or experienced. Therefore, the arrow goes through their heart and causes it to bleed. That’s why they feel hurt and tortured.
In my opinion, I think that music is really effective and has a great impact on people. However, playing with a person’s psychological state might be dangerous. Also, this kind of torture, if used, might cause the people who are being tortured, a long time to recover.
