What is music? Why do all human societies make it, but in such different ways? My research uses state-of-the-art scientific methods from fields like computer science and evolutionary biology to shed new light on these olds questions. I will show how these tools can be used not only to answer basic scientific questions but also be applied to contemporary issues like transparency in music copyright lawsuits and facilitating creative cross-cultural fusion music (I’ll even perform my own mash-up of hip-hop and Japanese folk song).
