Our Brains on Music - 6/30/09

Post by Thomas Maurice Booth »

Tonight on PBS, NOVA will have a special entitled "Nova: Musical Minds" in which Dr. Oliver Sacks, author of Musicophilia, will discuss the effect of music on the brain. On my PBS channel it will be on at 8pm, but you should check your local listings. I think it will prove to be an interesting special. Below you will find a link with more information.

I saw this segment last week on our local PBS station and it was an incredible program. Extremely interesting, I highly recommend taking the time to view it and see where technology is taking us on this path of knowledge.
