Nik Bear Brown writes by email, "I wanted to share a project I've been working on called "Lyrical Literacy" as part of my work with Humanitarians AI. See the video here.... (that) points out that singing engages multiple brain regions simultaneously - language centers, memory networks, emotional processing, and motor control systems all working together. Despite the scientific evidence of music's cognitive benefits, it's unfortunate that singing programs are often first to be cut from schools." I did like the video, partially because of the message, partially because of the music.
