The Franklin Institute’s So Curious! podcast is back with a bang, and this time exploring the captivating world of music through the lens of science. We all know the feeling of being moved by a song, but have you ever wondered why? Season 4 promises to get to the bottom of this mystery, interviewing experts in neuroscience, acoustics, biology, and musicology. From the connection between rhythm and dance to the link between memories and music, we’ll leave no stone unturned in our quest to understand the why behind music. But it’s not all serious – we’re also here to entertain! Join host Bey and Kirsten for an exciting journey this summer as we discover the intricacies of music and technology, including the question of whether the next big pop star will be A.I. Get ready to dance, hum, and maybe even shed a tear – this season of So Curious! is going to be music to your ears.
