“Notes and Neurons- In search of a common chorus” introduces the musician Bobby McFerrin. In just two minutes he succeeds with the aid of music and an audience in describing how amazingly alike we human beings are. One of the rare occasions when a greater whole emerges beyond division by subject and category.
