How long does it take you to recognize a song? Ten seconds? Five? One? How about half a second? Because psychological research says you've got a shot. This week we're joined by Alie Astrocyte from Neurotransmissions to talk about a study where participants were played incredibly short clips of popular songs, and were able to identify them an impressive amount of the time. We look at what that means for researchers and how our brains form memories in the first place, especially when we're learning new songs.

Can You Name These Songs?

I only got 1 of 4 the first time, but rewound and could clearly catch 3. Neat. I don't know if this is the right forum but I wanted to suggest that you analyse Gimme Shelter by the Rolling Stones. I'm also curious if you're considering alternatives to Patreon given the fee changes they've announced. Thanks and cheers!

I've looked into some other alternatives, but right now I'm not really sure that other good options exist. Subbable used to be pretty solid, but they shut down a while ago, and I don't think any other options really do what Patreon does. I'm keeping an eye out for other services but, for the moment, I think I'm gonna have to stay here. I totally understand anyone who wants to lower or cancel their pledge in response to this, though. I just don't really have any better options at the moment.
