Om mani padme hum. <p>Here&#8217;s an interesting interview (found on <a href="http://digg.com/music/How_Music_Gets_you_High">digg</a>) with a record producer-turned-neuroscientist, who is currently researching how the brain and mind handle and interpret music. <a href="http://www.wired.com/news/technology/medtech/0,71631-0.html?tw=wn_index_2">Read the article here.</a></p> <p>This guy is awesome. I am inspired just by his history alone. A guy going from a kick-ass job as a record producer for the Grateful Dead to a freaking neuroscientist. I can&#8217;t even fathom that transition.</p> <p>Anyway, I thought the interview was very exciting. I never really tried to think about how we perceive music and why we all perceive it differently. I just knew it happened. Now, we&#8217;re beginning to understand all these little functions of the human mind and the more we learn the more we can begin to advance and the more we&#8217;ll be able to achieve (both, good and bad).</p> <p>Peace, Jewls</p> Sun, 17 Sep 2006 17:52:10 -0400 urn:uuid:b587f3bf-36cc-414b-8a28-dd88ecaac1a3 Jewls http://jewlofthelotus.com/articles/2006/09/17/music-makes-me-happy Music Science http://jewlofthelotus.com/articles/trackback/22 julie, you're so interesting ... what a funny little story!
