Don’t miss an expert presentation on the discovery of the unique profile of each music lover by a brilliant and courageous trail blazer in the music industry.  Presented by Susan Rogers, Multi-platinum earning Sound Engineer for Prince and the hit album: Purple Rain; Susan was hired “sight-unseen” by Prince, working for him at the peak of his career. She is an author, doctor in experimental psychology from McGill University, and recent professor of psychoacoustics and record production of Berklee College of Music.

Susan presents a new model of music cognition describing the listener profile—a set of mental “sweet spots” where music’s features lead to the individual’s strongest response. Just as we do with food and clothing, our musical taste forms over a lifetime of positive and negative experiences to create a unique profile for each music lover. New research into spontaneous thought processes such as daydreaming reveals that the neural network forming our self-image increases its activity when our minds wander. This same network is also activated when we enjoy our favorite music.
