Hearing Seminar
What does the brain have to do with hearing?  We're used to talking about hearing loss due to conductive or sensorineural losses, both peripheral. But what happens to speech in the central nervous system, and how does that affect what we hear?

Antje Ihlefeld, now at Meta, will be talking about research she has done to better understand the impact of the cortex on hearing and hearing loss.

Details to follow.

Ludovic Bellier - Decoding a Pink Floyd song from the human brain

Date: 
Fri, 02/24/2023 - 10:30am - 12:00pm
Location: 
CCRMA Seminar Room
Event Type: 
Hearing Seminar
Can we tell the music you are listening to from brain signals?

There has been a lot of work to decode speech signals from brain signal using intracranial EEG (ECoG), MEG and EEG. But what about music? Does the brain respond the same way? Arguably speech is easier, since it is both one-dimensional and for many studies there is a single source. In addition speech is likely to engage the motor system, providing another set of neurons from which to decode the basic speech signal. Music is more challenging: multiple acoustic objects, driving the emotional centers of the brain. What does it mean to decode music? Which parts of the brain respond with a signal we can decode in real time?

Jonathan Berger Première

Congratulations to our very own Jonathan Berger for a terrific write-up of the première of a new piece!

"Classical musicians face enormous expectations when they play a standard repertory work. Listeners have strong feelings about favorite pieces, even when they are open to fresh interpretive approaches.

The stakes are even higher with a premiere. Performing a new piece becomes an act of advocacy to pull an audience in.

Mystery of 101-year-old master pianist who has dementia

Way to go, Dr. Selfridge-Field! Very interesting article about her work with master musicians suffering from dementia.

From the article: At first glance, she was elderly and delicate – a woman in her 90s with a declining memory. But then she sat down at the piano to play. “Everybody in the room was totally startled,” says Eleanor Selfridge-Field, who researches music and symbols at Stanford University. “She looked so frail. Once she sat down at the piano, she just wasn’t frail at all. She was full of verve.” Read more here...
