Bobby McFerrin at the World Science Festival

Bobby McFerrin takes the audience at the World Science Festival 2009 on a nice little muscial trip. “A demonstration of expectations” is what he calls it.

Just giving them two tones of a pentatonic scale (that’s 5, indeed) and by jumping around he’s not only the conductor but also the solist.

Leaving the neuroscientist on stage with just one very scientific question… what the hell just happened here?

Via on BoingBoing and Maarten on Twitter.
