Musical Hallucinations: "Brain Becomes an iPod"

Famed deejay extraordinaire Q-Burns Abstract Message says,

This is a super dooper interesting NYT article on the phenomenon of 'musical hallucinations' (which I know has been written about on Boing Boing before). This article goes into detail on how this ailment supports theories on how we perceive music, how it mainly affects people with hearing loss, and how it may be more prevalent in the future.

Reader comment: Neal Ungerleider says,

Continuing on the musical hallucinations tip: The Smithsonian Institution's Hirshhorn Museum is currently exhibiting a display of art by those with synaesthesia or artists who were inspired to take pharmeceuticals to induce synaesthesia in themselves; includes works from Georgia O'Keefe and Wassily Kandinsky.
