Rhythms of the Mind | Prof. Edward Large | #36

In this captivating episode of BeyondPhrenology, Dr. Madhur Mangalam sits down with Dr. Edward Large, a leading expert in auditory neuroscience and Director of the Music Dynamics Laboratory at the University of Connecticut. Together, they explore the profound intersection of music, neuroscience, and nonlinear dynamical systems—the hidden rhythms that shape how we perceive and respond to sound. Topics you don't want to miss: How does the brain synchronize with the rhythms of music, and why does this matter? Are emotions in music hardwired in our neurodynamics, or are they culturally constructed? What can the rhythmic abilities of non-human primates teach us about the evolution of musicality? Can insights into neural entrainment revolutionize music therapy for neurological and psychological disorders? How might AI and computational models challenge our understanding of music psychology? From the mysteries of rhythm perception to the future of music therapy, this conversation delves into the science behind why music moves us. Whether you're a neuroscientist, musician, or simply a lover of sound, this episode offers a fascinating journey into the rhythms of the mind. Tune in and discover the science behind the soundtrack of our lives!
