Music - Notes and Neurons - In Search of the common Chorus

[Screaminfu]

heya everyone, i watched this set of videos yesterday and thought it'd be cool (and relevant ^.^) to post it here for all of you to see.

this is a symposium/lecture on how humans understand and percieve music, how our brain's react and process anything musical, the shared social experiences we have and how our musical knowledge/understanding starts being learned while we are in the womb.

official description - "Is the reaction to rhythm and melody universal or influenced by environment? Join host John Schaefer, Jamshed Barucha, scientist Daniel Levitin, Professor Lawrence Parsons and musical artist Bobby McFerrin for live performances and cross cultural demonstrations to illustrate music’s note-worthy interaction with the brain and our emotions."

very interesting lecture if you've ever been curious about the science or psychology involved with music experiences.

enjoy ^.^
