we have that beautiful ability
We have built our experience in
the world accompanied by music we
we relate with other people to
through it we use it for
important moments of our villa
we have musical memories we fall asleep
and we even dream of music is usually
say that music produces us
emotions and that has the power to
modify our mood and
It is even said that it makes us more
smart the most important thing of the
music
you already know it because they have
musical experience and many of you
even without having studied music they are
musicians every time we share
music happens something special and to see something
special with music because all the
cultures have something that we can
recognize as music but in this
I’m going to tell you how it is that the
music allows to transform and register
our being and I’m going to do it in three
stages like music constitutes
our past as music
transform our present and how the
music can influence our future
good in our evolutionary history not
we were always as wise as now
our current mind is the result of
cases accumulated during thousands of
millions of years and this mind
wonderful is not just the product of
natural selection but also of
an immense cultural redesign and the
music was part of its history
let’s imagine a very few homo
secure and let’s call ruperto 1
ruperto a day with a hollow trunk what
began to hit in different places
and he realized that it sounded different
and his brain had the possibility of
keep track of the differences
hundreds of thousands of years later we
we find with breaking all
this new version of ruperto could
temporarily concatenate the actions
needed to copy a sequence of
basic sounds
everything changed
but three because ruperto 3 had the
control in the production of sounds
this is a kind of knowledge about
of knowing how I could correlate type
of action with sound results like this
For example, if the force could be
had developed the associations
functional with the ruperto 24 se
extended our memory widely
sound
this is not accidental because the sounds
has a very informational quality
special
its structure is made morfa with the
brain signals
that means and it ‘s a miracle that when
the brain remembers sounds can be
Remember also record your activity
the next important ruperto of this
history
ruperto 5 abandoned the old trunk
hollow and replaced it by different
trunks with a braided leather on the
tip now we call them drums true
and ruperto construction devices that
now they will allow you to download in the
world
those associations those relationships
causes outside the brain
these own instruments these tracks
they are hours transformed into objects
potentially activable capable of
produce a different sound if they were
activated and that the special here
probably the sound tracks or the
own instruments was one of the
first unloaded signs overturned from
inside out by humans in
the world
later with ruperto 6
according to the control of the instruments of
the traces and this ruperto could create
new types of arrangements that I was capable of
to replicate control and transform and
so began a cycle that was going to
repeat over and over again throughout
our history and one step and one break
a cycle where the last level
achieved closure would be replicated
controlled modified this story of
very many different ruperto and the
mind and the music was part of his
history where the brain
be aware of the history of our
evolving mind
I just told you about the past where
we were finding external systems of
memory control and the replication
music was progressively transformed
in a privileged system for this purpose
but now for us
ruperto the current music sony
present we live inundated with music
it will be this because it is a cultural object
fashionable or because we find ourselves with
something different in what its power consists
well I want to show you something like that
accompany
let’s sing happy together
birthday
we agree we are the comply
happy that you fulfill them happy that the
fulfill zeros with plaza félix
thank you very much sing very well yes and
also what am I going to ask him to do
again this little experiment
if we can start restarting payments that
Happy birthday, happy birthday
that you meet them awesome
well we all have to see this
creative capacity because the federico the
norberto felipe that you sang no
they were simply names contained a
high sound sequence
particular and of different rhythms
and you composed it illusion of a
very similar way
how they knew where they learned
composition when they studied when
We listen to music
we analyze at an impressive speed
massive amounts of information
constant extremes we project them in
the time we advance what
we are going to produce or it will sound
simulating a future and because we are
basis of all this because the music is
place in that simulation space
when the brain goes into mode
musical and it does not always do it but when
the brain goes into musical mode
we are not just listening to the
music as if we were watching the
wallpaper that entertains us with
its shapes and its figures in movement
we are not just listening to the
music we are being ourselves
the music and we do it without knowing what
happens because what happens is incredible the
same passage of sounds is processed
hundreds of times simultaneously
in our brain as if it were about
a movie at high speed
we want at the same time and that in each
version is modified
according to the possible formations
which has the script and where the
focus of the scenes and where the
meaning of them even when it
they keep the words that are said ‘there
that we are inside the movie are
the screenwriters directors the actors and
the spectators and we have the feeling
to know all that from before
we experience music as a big
yabu and this is actually an effect of
our own simulation capability
here in music we do not meet
with a representation of the world
outside but music gives us
the experience of another reality
you will wonder which one is a
simulation of a mind in my own
mind now I want to do with you
other games the numbers on screen
they will represent different sounds
so for example a 2 3 321 now they are going to
everyone will participate
if we can imagine the sound of a
big bell with a bell
bell tower with a wide sound and
extended truth we can imagine with
that sound of the bells in ones
moments
and with the numbers that appear
projected you are going to try
imagine a music is going to happen to them
four sequences of numerous animals
3 create a music a music that
before there was no such music is not
in the air is in each one of you
and even when the bells could be
slightly different
Now we can say that there is a
distributed music imagine that that
collective version we could
record that is what happens in each one
of you when you listen to music and we
gives an idea of how music is a
simulation space a space where
what is simulated are the functions
mental elements that underlie the
construction of all reality and
where analogous laws operate but
qualitatively different jumped the
physical world
so in music we have strength
gravitational forces for example
distinct and objects and properties
musicals and we develop wishes
beliefs and intention is purely
musicals
we are just now beginning to
understand something about how everything works
this but I want to share with you
what created the future and music
in this future
look at the different traditions
philosophical the music is seen as a
phenomenon linked to the soul or spirit
as something that expresses our being more
intimate and that can only be described to
through his experience as a
door to the future a way to
transcendence but this talk is
I said that music is a technology
of our brain that in the past we
allowed to download part of our
prehistoric mind in the world and that
then he gave us the basic signs of
thought
we still think with words that are the
brands and a mind that used those
sounds to establish contact
primary with the world we are part of that
history of a coevolution process there was
that transforms over time
our body our brain and our
mind and that’s why I think music
is going to be so important in the future
because if there was any way to go
beyond our limits
projecting our footprint us to
time they project their thick in
US
if there was any way to register
our mind on some kind of support
maybe the music could be
transform in faith
more effective to achieve it good I think
that music is what always was
This is the message that I brought you today
humans have been learning how
download the world progressively to
through music the drums the
oral tradition the songs
folklore transmitted from a
generation in another systems of
notation the scores the music of
the composers the recordings the
discs the idis the radio the music the
computers music on the network the
music in the virtual space
today there are interfaces
instruments that allow people
with cerebral palsy they can be
assisted to create their own music
all this future continuation and has
immense implications for our
future as humanity because at
investigate and understand music we can
start to find the tools
definitive for the understanding of
our own mental activity and so
in something as ancestral as music
find our door to the future
if I’m right
we could all continue being us
we would keep existing as a new
kind of music there was like that in
somewhere at some time the
we would transform into a music without
brain
thank you very much
me
