In $%&%, Japanese ice artists visited the area and created an exhibition of ice art. In #pring $%%', (rench artist Jannot )erid held an exhibition in a cylinder*shaped igloo in the area. +ne night there were no rooms available in the town, so some of the visitors asked for permission to spend the night in the exhibition hall. They slept in sleeping bags on top of reindeer skin * the first guests of the ,hotel.#ince its creation, the hotel has been featured in many television travel programmes, maga.ines, and newspapers. /ith the exception of the beds, the entire hotel is made completely out of ice blocks * even the glasses in the bar are made of ice.

9usic and the 9ind


In all the world=s cultures, people sing, play instruments, and celebrate with music. It plays such an important role in our lives that whole fields are dedicated to its study, including one looking at the biology of music. Bxperts are finding that because of the way our brains process music, learning to play an instrument or ust listening to music can have a wide range of benefits. 9usic education has received a lot of attention. Eearning to play an instrument can help children improve 9ath, #cience, and language skills. +ne study in <anada tracked children=s IO scores for nine months, discovering that children who studied music had the biggest test score improvements. The secret may lie in the way reading music and playing notes uses several regions of the brain, boosting our ability to learn school sub ects. (or example, reading notes improves spatial reasoning skills, which are helpful in solving math problems like fractions.

9usic is also used for medical purposes, such as the treatment of diseases which affect memory. The secret lies in the way the brain processes music. +ne area near the forehead, the medial prefrontal cortex, connects music with memories stored in two other areasH the amygdala and hippocampus. That=s why an old song can remind you of something that happened years ago. (or patients suffering from diseases like Al.heimer=s, listening to music can help unlock buried memories by strengthening musical pathways to memories. #tudies of the music*brain connection often focus on classical music, since it activates both the left and right sides of our brains. +ne study using 90I scans observed sub ects= brain activity as they listened to music by composer /illiam ;oyce. It found that activity was highest during the short breaks between the movements of a piece. )uring each pause, the person=s brain anticipated what would come next, while organi.ing what he or she had ust heard. This process of sorting beginnings and endings is similar to the way our brain organi.es information. It may explain why classical music can help improve memory. 1) .
