Join us for From Signal to Sound, the next installment of Music on the Brain, co-presented with Columbia University’s Zuckerman Institute.
Hosted by Harlem tour guide Amanda Humes, this dynamic evening brings together MRI pioneer Dr. Tommy Vaughan and acclaimed tenor saxophonist Patience Higgins for a live blend of music, neurotechnology, and conversation. Together, they will explore how an MRI scanner functions as a window into the living brain, drawing a parallel between how scientists decode magnetic brain signals and how a jazz composer transforms an idea into music.
Featuring live performances by the Patience Higgins Quartet and engaging audience Q&A, this event offers a captivating glimpse into how science and music meet.
Admission is free with RSVP to attend in person or watch online.
