World Science Festival – Notes and Neurons

Filmed on June 12, 2009

Is our response to music hard-wired or culturally determined? 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.

The main tank called the “Kuroshio Sea” holds 7,500-cubic meters (1,981,290 gallons) of water and features the world’s second largest acrylic glass panel, measuring 8.2 meters by 22.5 meters with a thickness of 60 centimeters. Whale sharks and manta rays are kept amongst many other fish species in the main tank.

Let Yourself Feel by Esteban Diácono

We become desensitized by our culture and its tools of influence like T.V. to the plight of our fellow man and how fortunate we all are to have the time we do with each other. Think of those close to you, a warm embrace, the upward curl of a friendly smile and don’t forget to let yourself feel!

a little animation project i started this past weekend, inspired by the wonderful music of Olafur Arnalds.

the song is called Ljósið, and you can listen to it at:

foundsongs.erasedtapes.com/

In that site you will find a few more songs, and let me tell you, they’re all incredibly beautiful and haunting (and inspiring).

the quotes are from many sources, including Brian Eno, Stefan Segmeister, Albert Einstein and a few more i got randomly and i’m not sure about the author.

In all cases, thank you for the inspiration.

Hope you’ll like it, cheers.
