2013-San Diego CA: Emotional circuits: Electric animal2013-San Diego CA: Emotional circuits: Electric animal
NWEAMO 2013 — Emotional circuits: Electric animal Newsflash! We are all the same – under the hood. Mammals & birds share the same neurobiology for emotions. Is it time to ask your dog to join the choir? … a Suzuki piano method for your cat? New inventions such as fMRI and MEG are showing our brain circuits with a degree of resolution previously impossible. Neuroscientists are using these to map our enormously complex brains, and are beginning to understand what circuits light up when we smile, give our baby a hug, feel bullied, see an attractive fellow human walking down the street – and experience music. Currently, affective neuroscientists have identified the circuits for 7 deeply ingrained emotions shared by all mammals & probably birds. The artistic ramifications of such a groundbreaking, breathtaking assertion are enormous. First off – what are these seven so-called “primary process” emotions? How do these connect to the catalog of subtle emotional states that we experience in constantly shifting hues throughout the day and in our dreams? Is there music that specifically provokes these? Does this illuminate new possibilities for music? This is the over-arching theme of NWEAMO 2013 — Emotional circuits: Electric animal To help…
