“The Science of Musical Creativity: Bridging Intuition, Cognition, and Artistic Expression”

Since the research for my planned book on this topic is taking longer than expected, I am publishing an essay on the subject today. Consider it a piece of weekend reading for anyone interested. Musicians and music creators who reflect on how to establish a meaningful connection with listeners might find the article worthwhile.

The essay examines how insights from cognitive science help illuminate the way listeners perceive rhythm, harmony, expectation, and emotional tension in music. It looks at how intuitive creative decisions often correspond to perceptual mechanisms studied in neuroscience and music psychology, and how this knowledge can support composition, arrangement, and production without reducing music to formulas. The aim is to show how artistic intuition and scientific understanding interact in shaping musical experience.

Health Care Has Become the Lifeblood of the Labor Market

An aging population is drawing workers to medical and social care, creating reliable jobs and revealing weakness for the rest of the economy.

“Breakfast is a vector space. You can place pancakes, crepes, and scrambled eggs on a simplex where the variables are the ratios between milk, eggs, and flour. We have explored too little of this manifold. More breakfasts can exist than we have known.”

The Hunt for Dark Breakfast

With a theoretical model of breakfast, can we derive the existence of “dark breakfasts,” breakfasts that we know must exist, but have never observed?

I love this kind of graph, we should do it for a lot of topics, to better understand media distortions (and not only in the US)
