From Hidden Brain: Your brain on music. Our brain activity lights up like fireworks when we listen to music because hearing music involves processing different elements of sound. “But when scientists turned from observing the brains of music listeners to those of musicians, the little backyard fireworks became a jubilee,” a TED-Ed video explains. “It turns out that while listening to music engages the brain in some pretty interesting activities, playing music is the brain's equivalent of a full-body workout.” In other words, when we play music rather than simply listen to it, additional areas of the brain light up – areas associated with memory, executive functioning, and problem-solving, for example. Watch the full video to learn why this happens—and what it means for your guitar-picking habit. https://lnkd.in/gkNkkFNj

Research on the effects of music lessons on the brain🧠🎶 If you have any doubts about the benefits of music lessons for your child, be sure to watch this video👍 https://lnkd.in/gGH56zxD

High quality music education, particularly learning to play a musical instrument, changes the brain which can result in improved learning and achievement in other domains, as well as improved executive function and memory. https://lnkd.in/g5n6aZJr

As part of our series on Play, we look at the benefits of playing an instrument... 'When you listen to music, multiple brain areas become engaged and active. But when you actually play an instrument, that activity becomes more like a full-body brain workout. What's going on? Anita Collins explains the fireworks that go off in musicians' brains when they play and examines some of the long-term positive effects of this mental workout.'

This just may be the best example I have seen in applying scientific method to our everyday life and decision-making. Jim Lill's thought process and strategies demonstrated on his website (https://jimlillmusic.com), and in his many YouTube videos, puts many seasoned scientist and engineers I know to shame. Worth the watch even if you are not a #musician. And it gets even better on some of Jim's other videos where he dives into perception, human choice and behaviors, and the interaction between sounds and the brain. His data catalog of A-B tests across instrument attributes, electronics, and sounds under various conditions is impressive. #guitarplayer #scientificmethod #musicindustry

Common repping Parlez in his latest video, which is a banger BTW! https://lnkd.in/erhGHDmh
