Arts & Entertainment Lecture: Listening to Music
What the Music you love says about you
Presented by Susan Rogers, Multi-platinum earning Sound Engineer for Prince and the hit album: Purple Rain, author, doctor in experimental psychology from McGill University, and recent professor of psychoacoustics and record production at Berklee College of Music.
Come and explore how the music we love the most reveals our sense of self and provides a way for us to share ourselves with others. Professor of cognitive neuroscience, author, and former multiplatinum-earning record producer (Prince, David Byrne, Barenaked Ladies) Susan Rogers presents a new model of music cognition describing the listener profile—a set of mental “sweet spots” where music’s features lead to the individual’s strongest response. Just as we do with food and clothing, our musical taste forms over a lifetime of positive and negative experiences to create a unique profile for each music lover.
