Abstract: Images of the brain taken using scanning techniques are usually static – they represent activity at a single moment in time. But neurons in the brain show temporal patterns of activity, as well as spatial patterns. Now the dynamics of neural activity have been studied in people listening to sequences of musical notes. The technique shows that different brain areas fire more synchronously in response to melodic sequences than they do in response to random notes.
