Algun dia heu intentat fer sonar una copa fregant-la amb el dit? El so que en surt és una mica fantasmagòric, oi? Doncs resulta que hi ha un instrument, aparentment maleït 😱, que utilitza el mateix principi. Si en voleu saber més, us he preparat aquest #enfilall: ⬇️
Tot va començar quan el 1744 a un irlandès, Richard Pockrich, se li va ocórrer disposar unes quantes copes per crear una escala de notes musicals, però enlloc de colpejar-les, les va fregar amb els dits humitejats. 
Amb això va aconseguir un original instrument que ràpidament es començà a escampar per tot Europa. Una de les primeres intèrprets famoses va ser #AnnFord (a la imatge) que, a més de tocar de meravella, va escriure un tractat sobre l'instrument.
This week at SFI: "#Complexity and the Structure of #Music: Universal Features and Evolutionary Perspectives Across Cultures", an #interdisciplinary working group assembled to explore new frameworks for understanding music. Stay tuned for highlights!

Once you represent a musical composition as a network, it is possible to examine the evolutionary dynamics of its harmonic content over time, as explained by @mbnUNT in his opening talk for this week's SFI #musicology working group.
