Your brain on improv: Charles Limb on TED.com
Musician and researcher Charles Limb wondered how the brain works during musical improvisation — so he put jazz musicians and rappers in an fMRI to find out. What he and his team found has deep implications for our understanding of creativity of all kinds. (Recorded at TEDxMidAtlantic, November 2010 in Baltimore, MD. Duration: 16:31)
